PRESS RELEASE

CLUBRACER-PLATFORM INTRODUCES CLUBRACER BARGAINS=20
ClubRacer Bargains offers a virtual market-place=20

Antwerp / Belgium, April 25th 2006

At the beginning of April 2006, the Belgian ClubRacer-platform
introduced its virtual market-place ClubRacer Bargains (
http://bargains.clubracer.be). Sailors from all over the world are
welcome to use this free service for selling their second-hand
equipment. Registrated users benefit from well-considered internet
applications, such as an internal messaging system and an e-mail filter.
Buyers and sellers choose the categories, about which they wish to be
kept posted by e-mail. Afterwards, they can contact each other without
publishing their personal data online.=20

Initiator Eddy Lekens about his new service: =93This idea entered my =
mind,
because the forum of ClubRacer.be was used more and more as a market.
Since it was not built for that purpose, the user=92s friendliness was
insufficient.=94 The homepage of ClubRacer Bargains contains a list of =
ten
main and several sub-categories, followed by an enumeration of the
latest offers. After registration, the consumer can complete his account
in a closed and safe online area. Lekens: =93Here they can select =
filters
and favourites, which will help them in the process of finding a product
or buyer. Advertisements can be managed easily and they can contact
other customers through =91messaging=92.=94=20

Although the free core business of ClubRacer Bargains will remain the
same, Lekens also mentions the possibility of additional services in the
future. Lekens: =93That depends on the feedback that we will receive. I
can imagine that the industry would be interested in a virtual outlet
for bargain sales. Or maybe an auction. However, there will be a fee for
these kind of commercial activities.=94

About Clubracer.be
In March 2002, Eddy Lekens started with ClubRacer.be, a Dutch-speaking
news platform for the Benelux. The content exists of sailors=92 stories
from the cockpit and of news about races in the Benelux or anywhere in
the world. ClubRacer works with voluntary editors. The online forum of
ClubRacer turned out to be a popular application, that inspires Lekens
for the expansion of his services.=20
