He said the sticky point was the series sponsors with each of the sactioning bodies. He indicated no major sanctioning body sponsor would want to share the lead position for a World contest. More food for thought.

Here is the "sponsor list" from the SBI website. None of them should have a problem with the APBA Sponsors, in fact many complement each other well. Maybe it's Reggie that is the hidden "Sponsor" that has a problem with teaming up with APBA.

More food for thought..........

Ok, so, does this mean that APBA and the Conch Rebublic both have permits to run the same race?

Mike,

No one has permits yet. The application is in the form af a resolution so when it is voted on it goes in to effect as written. Both resolutions will be voted on March 16th. You can view both applications here SBI:http://www.keywestcity.com/agenda/Ci...ution%20BB.pdf

APBA:http://www.keywestcity.com/agenda/Ci...ution%20CC.pdf

Ok, so Mike was showing where the City of Key West has publicly received and acknowledged applications from both the Conch Republic and APBA for city permits.
Correct?
