You can get a 135HO but that's a V6...
The blue ones are much faster when you find the right propeller like we just have! You won't be the only ones with a posh cover next season

Our boat and engine combo not really all that quick Paul-however the Driver well that's a different story.
What a year best racing for a long time I rate the four cylinder it's not silly Money to buy,run and race.
A class has to have been a huge success

Quick enough to take the championship! We'll be back faster and more reliable next year so look out! It's definitely been the best season since I've been involved

Powerboat racing is powerboat racing Bob.
3A has been around for ages I remember watching 50hp pull star Mercs battling it out in Guernsey early seventies and 3B would have had 85 merc four cylinders then 115 six cylinders.
I remember 3C racing red band 135 straight six Mercs and the arrival 1976 of V6 outboards
The classes have jus evolved really as motors have developed.
There is they say nothing new under the sun and racing be it OCR or 3A is no exception.
Glad to see a resurgence in the UK of a sport I have always loved !
