Powerboat P1 Management has been advised by Sunseeker Sales Group that the Team Sunseeker and the #11 Sunseeker Challenger boat will not be contesting the remaining three Grand Prix of the Sea events of the 2008 season.

Powerboat P1 CEO Jim O’Toole said: "This is disappointing news as the team of pilots Andy Wilby and Pete Little, and team manager Mel Wilby are very popular members of the Powerboat P1 community and have  made a significant contribution to the championship over the last two years. We look forward to welcoming them  back to Powerboat P1 racing in the future."
