Ok, someone who started Speedvision is currently working on something else.
It sounds really good but I can't say more except he is into boats, planes & cars!

Is there any channel that promotes boating at this point? And I don't mean those darn "Fish with Jimmy" shows. Our sport has been orphaned. I would love to have some programming focused on offshore boats specifically. APBA and other racing is what I am looking for.

Keep us informed.

When I was at the great lakes silver cup award cermonies which I recieved APBA high points P-2 central div. championship & GLSCS P-2 High point's championship they told us that the outdoor channel will be showing all the APBA GLSCS races 1-7 all season! Aye Tom ! How Ya Doin ! Is the ship ready for the season?

SBI aired all of their races on OLN last yr. and I thought I heard that they were doing the same this year.
I don't know about APBA but rumor says TNN.
We'll see what happens if another channel enters the playing field.
