Yep...26 boats racing so should be fun.

[gtflash]

how did it go for the entrants!!! Looked great from the shore of hurst castle, really wish id entered!!! Great array of NORMAL boats as well as the out and out racers

One of the best powerboat events for a long time - I think 28 teams in the end - great organisation and a lot of happy people.

Hopefully the start of RIB racing making a strong return.

Some results would be nice
Very entertaining day

[Adam Younger]

Lifted these results - which I'm sure will be ok.

We were running just behind the 'Going Lean' Phantom Evolution with the 250 e-Tec, until we spun a propeller bush! Think they probably speeded up towards the end though.

Thanks Adam did you enter under class 4

[Adam Younger]

Yes - had the KR7 with a 150 E-Tec in Formula 4 - and to be honest about the best package you get for the class, rough or calm. We were leading the class by a long way, running behind the Phantom Evolution with a 250 E-Tec. However we spun a propeller bush on the second lap - so a no finish.

As always - to finish first - first you have to finish

Anyway - really enjoyed the event and best bit was seeing so many happy people at a race meeting.
