Yes I do know what it means and I wasn't aware it was meant to be public knowledge! As I think I mentioned, a lot of people spent the whole of Easter trying to put together a rescue package - it needs P1's co-operation for the gear and it needs the co-operation of the venues and other teams, so I would imagine to get to Yalta they would have to put if off for a week or two, but there are a lot of people with a lot of money invested in this series, some of which have been trying to explain to sponsors how they are going to give them value for money!

I heard yesterday of a European team that has invested 1/2 million Euros of a sponsors money in a new P1 boat for this season - try explaining that without looking like a complete plonker!

Sorry Cookee I was unaware it was not intended for general discussion, I hope all this now being out in the public domain ie ... ( not originally posted by me) does not effect the hard work people are no doubt putting in to get things up and going again

LOL, you are absolutley correct.

I wish everybody could just race together..not make nonsense rules about BS and build classes for boats....

HP/WEIGHT ( P1 ) was the only and best rule ever......now u could add single and twin ..and just leave it right there.

Allow boats open or closed cockpits from 24-42 feet and LETS GO RACING !!!

But nobody listens !!????
