I picked up a 7 month old zapcat for a very good price and it was in very good condition. As long as you find the rite boat there is no problem with buying a second hand one.

Send me a private message if you want to chat about it.

I've seen several setting off from Lymington but what chance of finding a co-pilot......... Also do you have full insurance?

One outfit looked particularly complicated & very polished (££££££££).

What were you racing in and where is AllHallows, (thinking logistically)

The chances of finding a co-pilot are pretty high

We were spectators en route home from a weekend in Kent. Allhallows was just a little detour to the north before we had to hit the M25. We had to stop to cheer on the Pompey Team 'Explosion'( Carl's Bakdraft).
We also met Geoff who used to race but does some nifty engine work nowadays.
And Silversurfer who was racing a Phantom ; he had a tough time with his engine tho'.

The Junior outfits looked like fun!

You cant get insurance that covers the boat in raceing but the RYA race license covers personal insurance now.

I have some good news for you and that is Zapcat have luanched a new race series targeting people like yourself. Its called the youth championship and allows people between the age of 14 and 17 to race in the same boats but with a 30hp tohatsu engine.

Ifyour intrested let me know and ill get you in contact with zapcat
