SBI definition of offshore powerboat racing

Superboat International issued a press release a couple of days ago regarding a European team racing in a couple of US races. At the end of the press release was the SBI vision of offshore powerboat racing; pathetic.

Offshore powerboats race on a rectangular shaped stadium-styled racecourse along a 2-1/2 mile stretch of beaches filled with hotels, vendors and race fans.
