    If you want true FAST driver then you have found what you are looking for, if you search floating wallet to sit in your boat that is not me ;o)

    From a previous post I dont think he's looking for a "Free Ride", I think he's looking for a "Paying" ride.

    Amazing how it has gone backwards. I've also talked with Jimbo about that.

    Maybe he can find another boat to bring over from Finland.

    Only way to do it would be with an own team and own sponsors abroad....

    Actually not that a long shot if your a foreign racer with my drivers CV.
    Don't ask how I came up with that crazy Idea....
    Offshore Racing wasn´t designed to be a spectator sport, it's for people or companies with's lots of money to push the envelope of endurance technology and hopefully put a trophy on a mantle. It's man vs the elements, not like boats with like engines running in circles.

    Why bring the boat over?

    I know some guys are getting interested after this pioneer work I'm doing of racing here (U.S.A)
    Lets see all in Clearwater at the Weekend guys.
