London, UK – 23 August 2010 - The World Match Racing Tour regrets to announce that The Qingdao Match Cup has been cancelled after the local organising authorities were unable to commit to hosting the event.
Despite an agreement having been concluded in June 2010 the local authorities have been unable to meet the requirements outlined by WMRT.
WMRT remains committed to the expansion and development of the world championship series and continues its discussions with potential cities.
FEATURED LOCATION 2/7
The Korea Match Cup is being held in conjunction with the Korea International Boat Show which is the first on water boat show in the country. Racing will be held in Jeongok and Jebu, which are part of the Gyeonggi Province. The West coast of the Gyeonggi Province offers a coastline that stretches over 350 kilometres and tidal flat areas that encompass more than 150 square kilometres. The West Coast is an ecological treasure trove -- it provides an ideal foundation for the marine recreation and tourism industry that is developing rapidly in Korea.
