Key West had SBI/APBA racing on Wed and Fri.
The only results I have found for Wed. have been from OSO members.
The SBI website has no results listed for either day yet.
The only way I was able to get results for Fri. was by
listening to the Talkoffshore.com webcast for two hours.
Well on Fri Lucas Oil won Super Vee again in the Skater.
And the Predator Apache won again in P2.
Other than that, I don't remember much. I didn't
write it down while listening. Who really cares,
they don't seem to care about us, the fans.
Somebody's really slacking off at SBI/APBA....
BTW: I am rooting for Nigel Hook. He so deserves it..

Must be true. I even looked at the SBI website and no results even from the WED. race. They are based in Key West and can't post the results in 4 days? SLACK, SLACK, SLACK OH and buy the way after talking to a friend, only 34 boats not 40-45.

I can help a little... In SuperVee, The Lucas Skater won again and Yachts was second then Shogren and then Joe Boxer. Joe Boxer was in third but ran out of gas right before the finish line and Shogren slipped by.
That's all I know. Maybe somebody should contact Panasonic... Aren't they "into media" or something like that...

It's disappointing, for sure. We don't have all the facts yet, but for a boat

to quit in protest isn't good for the fans. There has to be more to it than this.
Six race boats are better to watch than four.
For a while now, I thought that OSS was all for the racers and the fans,
but after this weekends events, I'm forced to face the sad fact that
maybe the sport itself will just never be what it could.
I'm still hopeful that OSS will tell us, the fans, the REAL story. And it better be good.
