I really don't know at this point if Seaboard will deal with each separate team. The motive behind taking the time to write this report is to "pour some oil on the water". Emotions are getting pretty hot and I don't feel that this will accomplish anything in the long run. I've made some suggestions. Perhaps someone else will come up with a better one. Mine are based upon 39 years experience.

We had reservations about doing business at the port to start with. This is why we chose to drive our boat to the race. I knew APBA would take care of us but everytime I've done business way down south , I loose. 10-12's in the Gulfstream are sounding good right about now! BH

I ask that people do not speculate about what is happening and only post facts from personal situations and not second hand information. APBA has not been a part of the board for quite some time and it's great to see Ted Zoli giving an update of the situation. He didn't hide and neglect to comment. You have to give him credit and trust APBA is doing what they can and has the racers' interest in mind.

If you look at the numbers...30,000 at 72 per square meter is 416 square meters OFF! About 1248 sq ft. If your average boat/trailer is 10 feet you have roughly 124 feet of mis measurements...or a couple of tractor trailer rigs. There were only 40 or so units....seems like a large margin of error...just my two cents and rough math....
? - Why would anyone submit wrong numbers on their paperwork??? We weren't being charged.....
