This year’s 35th Annual Sarasota Powerboat Grand Prix had 68 race teams compete from around the world, a significant increase from an average of 30 race teams participating over the last several years, thanks to Powerboat P1 and the Offshore Powerboat Association partnering on a new six-race offshore series this season. This produced hugely positive results for both the sport of powerboat racing and the impact that the Festival continues to have on the local economy and Suncoast Charities for Children. Visit Sarasota County reported in their economic impact report that the 2019 Sarasota Powerboat Grand Prix generated an estimated economic impact of $29.6 Million and a direct total impact of $17.9 Million in expenditures. Next year’s Festival will be held June 20-28 with the Grand Prix Race taking place on Sunday, June 28.
