You would think it is that easy.  They get the boats from their sponsors but they also have the responsibility to sell the boat after the season or pay for it themselves.  Trust me the sponsors don't lose out.

lol ... can be tougher than you think.  Although I know from talking to a lot of them that they have dealerships that will take them on consignment so that also works out.

He is right they do have to sale the boats at the end of each year.

I raced for Polaris and Can-Am ATV. Free is not really free.

New Can-Am 800 cc stock motor , tires, rims , bone stock sticker price $13,000.00
I call Can-Am tell them I need a ATV they call a dealer and I only pay $5,000.00 . But then I have to build the atv for racing. Eng. Work, ad programmer, lift kit, tires and new rims, exhaust, snorkel kit. So all in all I will have around $10,000.00 in it. Still better then sticker price. I would race it for 6 months and then list it or sale. I would sale it for sticker price of $13, 000.00 and yes people will buy a jacked up mud racing ATV 6 months old for sticker price cause even if the got it for 10,000.00 they could not build it race ready for under $13,000.00 but I could because of sponsors discounts. Once I sing for it I have one year to pay me the $5,000.00 back. Every year we have to have a new ATV per contract. I would buy 3 at one time and build all 3. I used one for racing, one for a back up, and one for event shows. As long as you get the money out of each atv you put in it you brake even.

That video made me want to vomit. I hate beaching my boat in the sand.
