Graham Trucking wins Albert Lee Appliance Cup at Seafair

Shane said the Graham Trucking boat was far from the buoy and that the contact was not intentional.

This was the second year the Seafair final was a run-off between the Oh Boy! Oberto boat and the Graham Trucking boat. In 2014, there was talk of a possible 1-minute penalty in the final heat before Kelly was declared the winner.

The Seafair victory was another big win for Kelly, who won the Indian Governor’s Cup in Madison last month.

This is also the last year an Oberto hydroplane is expected to be at Seafair. After 40 years, the company is not renewing its sponsorship, and some Oberto family members don't want to drop the tradition.

They're asking people to call and write Oberto Beef Jerky to keep the iconic red, white, and green hydro on the water. Click on this link to contact the Oberto company.

In the F1 final, No. 16 Tim Seebold toped Terry Rinker and Chris Fairchild on Sunday.

Thousands watch Seafair races and the Blues

Seafair Sunday is a tradition for dozens of Seattle families. For over 60 years Seafair — which starts in June — has been about community events, parades, Miss Seafair, the Navy and Coast Guard, amateur athletics, airplanes and of course, boat racing. But most of all, Seafair has been about people and it continues to be.

For more than six decades on Seafair Sunday, Blue Angels have soared above Lake Washington and the hydroplane race finals draw thousands of fans.

As the Blues took to the skies, specators were left in awe with the maneuvers -- which are not stunts, but techniques taught in flight school and then developed for combat environments. Click here for highlights in photos.

From the waters to the shore, many Seafair fans took to social media to share their love for the event. See what spectators and participants had to say, in the thread below.
