BRADENTON/PALMETTO (FOX 13) - The sound is unmistakable. For the fourth year, Formula 2 boats and speeding jet skis will take center stage at the Bradenton Area River Regatta.
"It's kind of unique that they can watch from the top of the bridge and we are right there," said Eric Lagopoulos.
Jet Ski racer Eric Lagopoulos said the only thing louder than the boats are the fans.
"We can actually hear them from the bridges," he said.
He hopes to bring home first place this year. But the cities of Bradenton and Palmetto expect to be the biggest winners.
"We are looking to break all records of attendance," said Mayor Wayne Poston.
