John Carbonell of SBI responded this morning to yesterday’s request for comment:
"Fast Response had leased a boat from Cleveland Construction to serve as the tow boat during the Clearwater National Championship Race," he said. "However, on Saturday, Cleveland Construction demanded that they also be allowed to launch a private boat to be used for their personal service on the course. This private boat was not part of the race event and was not covered under the race contracts or insurance policies covering the event.
"While Cleveland Construction could have launched their boat at a private facility and kept it within the spectator area as required of every other race team, they chose instead to pull the tow boat out of the race at the last minute and remove their team from the competition," he continued. "SBIP was able to make other tow boat arrangements and there was no impact on any of the races or race teams."

Story line could be. Stubborn Team owner hangs his running crew out on the side line.
I hate it for Grant and Ed.
