2010 Season Preview
 
http://www.poweryachtblog.com/2010/0...n-preview.html Here is the information I managed to gather so far. Hope we have a fabolous start and we have a site where we can follow it online. If they pay me the tickets I can do a tweet for them....

Four races that a great start...IC they finish in Sept,maybe what will give them time to race the Worlds this yr. in Nov. I know we had a few boat come over last yr. to KW maybe we will see more this yr.

It is actually 4 x 2 = 8, as each GP has two races 1 on Saturday the Sprint, and another on Sunday the Endurance.
But they should make it for 5 GPs as rumours about Belgium, Sweden, and Italy are coming in. So if we are lucky one of these should happen for sure...
I think last year the Donzi 38 Team 26, Spirit of Belgium with there Nor-Tech, and the Lucas Oil evo boat competed in KW. I think Lucas Oil run with his old Outerlimits 40.

Liam, you left out Friday Qualifying.

Team 26 came all the way to KW last year. Nigel had to get the Skater back in the States as per the Carnegie so he showed up also.

Hopefully a lot more of them can make it to KW this year and even more hopeful, the organization will have a class they can fit into.

No, fortunately they don't need much help. Go Team 26!!! But if needed I gladly travel.

I will be waiting by the phone to hear how Drew runs as his first day in the water should be tomorrow, provided he clears customs :D

A Carnegie is what is used to import items into a country with the purpose to not be left in that country or union.

ie. Nigel and others shipped their boats to Europe (non European boats that is) to race not to sell nor import. So they get an insurance policy (Carnegie) to assure the EU or any country they will be exiting the country by a certain date so as to not pay import duties and VAT.
