It all started when RWO was awarded Key West...if it went to OPA, there would only be one. I hope they can realize what's best for the future and join forces for 2020. The teams are there...get organized!

If boats show up and race key West it will do nothing but foster rwo' s attempt to fracture the sport and provide them with more ammunition for next year if it's a low single.digit turnout, two is done and. Everyone will race under one unified org.next year. It's that simple.

hahahaha. Nah, I didn’t mean interested as a racing. Entertained that for about half a second with a buddy a bunch of years ago. That’s just a hole to throw money into. Lol. I meant interested as a spectator. This sh*t show is so f*cked up it turns even those that would be interested in watching off. My point was even as a spectator it’s Hard to be super interested when you can’t keep up with the drama.

I agree there are a FEW. It has been my experience over the years that MOST don't have big ego's. I see these people constantly helping others and being very charitable. It drives me nuts when I read post about racers ego's.

Of course, there are exceptions. Every sport (and every business) has its Darth Vaders. But most offshore racers are down to earth and gracious.

Silly questions but......
If you are unhappy with RWO and/or APBA, were you happy with SBI over the past few years?
Wonder how this year would have went if RWO never existed and SBI continued similar to past years?
Would OPA be as successful as they have been so far this season?
