Matt, Do you understand exactly how GAC will be handling logistics for the 5 Fl. races. How will a Shipping Co. be involved in handling the boats from, say Sarasota to Ft. Myers or any other Fl. City ????

Short answer: I don't know.

Longer answer (but still not a definitive one): My guess, as details beyond those provided in the press release (and this story was repeatedly sourced to the press release from GAC Pindar) is that GAC Pindar/s primary role with OPGP will be handling shipping logistics for U.S. boats headed to the Qatar Cup each year for the next three years, assuming, of course, the event happens for the next three years.

Now that makes Perfect since. Just don't understand how a shipping company could support 5 Fl. U.S. State . races.

I guess it's possible they could be bringing non-US boats to the races. Now that would be cool.
