mmmmnnn, interesting! But is it 2005, or 2008?? all very odd. A failed venture being re-scheduled for another go maybe?

Ben,

That all started back in 2003 or maybe 2004 but the date keeps getting pushed back every year.

The race was to be from Miami to NY and make a huge TV show out of it.
Entry fees are huge and I guess not many have taken them too seriously.

I see more promise in the Britain race at this point.

How much were the entry fees?

To get any info from them you have to give your boats full specs along with crew (race and pit crew) and then answer a load of questions - seems a bit long winded for people to bother getting info from them and I guess puts some people off.
