Mills offers $1000.for poker run boats

Whats this guy thinking, take our boats beat the sh$t out of them, If something breaks I dont think a grand is going to cover it. Maybe five grand (cash in advance) Just my thoughts.

Sounds like desperation. Key west certainly won't pay with the current boat totals.

Is he willing to pay for gas (PURPLE) also or is this just a desperate move. I would say more like ten grand.

As soon as you are considered to be "racing," 99% of insurance policies cease to bind for the duration of the "race." Is $1000 worth it?.....

Is Mills covered? For how much?

How many boats does he need???? At $1000 a pop....I don't see how he can make money..... I also haven't seen a post or anything in writing from Mills. Is this true....... or another "urban legend"?

i don't get it. 1K to borrow someone's boat, give it to racers, beat the living hell out of it and give it back to the owner at the end of the day OR he gives 1K to owners who want to enter the race with their own boats? i'd go for the second one, coast around at cruising speed just to finish, go through finish, collect 1K. The first option is... well, let's not even think about possible consequences.
