Go to www.superboat.com. Yes they have a class of boats called Superboats. How many Superboats will race in KW may be another issue.

The race in Key West is open to all and any boats that run the 2 races needed to be at the Worlds.That is a question that only the teams can answer. But I think you will see most of them there I don't see any reason why not. Sarasota will be a good judge for the Worlds,I know alot of first time teams will be there as their first race toward the Worlds.

Joe,
If I might help you with your question. If you are referring to the big canopy boats or the big Super Cats and Cat Lights or the big Super Vee's, then these boats will not be racing in Key West for 2005. See www.OffshoreSuperSeries.com for a list of the boats that race on the OSS circuit, and this might help with your question.
Unlike in 2004, there will not be a "Unified" World Championship in Key West. Only APBA/SBI boats will be racing there.

======================

Based upon the above it is intuitively obvious that the OSS does not give a crap about a fan base /general public growth in this great sport and is completely selfserving. :mad:

To:
-Not join the rest of the racing groups at the Worlds

-To schedule the OSS race on the same dates at a not too distant venue

-This OSS attitude/actionis an insult to ALL fans/potential fans, as well as ALL drivers, crews and families (adults and children) related to ALL classes associated with OFFSHORE racing.
===========
I am a retired grumpy old tart with a lot of pride and some photographic skills that I share freely with all powerboat racing people no matter what class (from J-Hydro, SLTs, OPCs. Unlimited Hydros, Drags, as well as all OFFSHORE).

It was recently suggested by a professional news journalist related to Offshore that I share my talents (little) with OSS as well as APBA/SBI. I was about to do that till I heard about the current OSS attitude and intended actions.

I'm only one person (fan) of this great sport and have now cancelled all hotel reservations associated with OSS racing activity.

No thanks for screwing the public :mad:

....Funny, We were just talking to a lot of SV teams that are going to race in Key West for the Worlds, looks like about 14 Super V's...maybe I missed the memo we were all racing elsewere....
