Ultimate Powerboat Day

Ultimate Powerboat Day

This is your chance to drive two of the fastest and most exciting powerboats in the UK. The Honda Formula 4-Stroke championship (HF4S) is the largest and most exhilarating offshore powerboat series in the world. The power supplied and strength of G-force means this one has to be tried and tested in order to appreciate the grace of this highly responsive racing machine. During this experience the Driver (usually a current or past racer) will head into the Solent to show what the boat can do. After the ferocious 4 stroke it is time for the Suzuki Hyper Cat. The Suzuki Hyper Cat is one of the fastest production powerboats in the world and can power through almost any water at high speed, sending the boat flying high above the surface. This High performance Hyper Cat demands respect and makes a wonderful experience.

Agenda
