Keith Fickert, left, of Waynesville, and Frank Deem of New Carlisle work on Deem's boat on the shore of Grand Lake on Friday evening. Fickert is racing both Deem's boat and his own during the Ohio Governor's Cup Regatta. "I'm very much looking forward to it," Fickert said. "This is like our home course." More than 20,000 spectators are expected to attend the event, which is held Saturday and Sunday starting at 10 a.m. Admission and parking are free.
