I am afraid Blastoff wont be making it, we still have some work to do and wont be ready. We also really need to get some testing hours under the belt to finally get rid of all the gremlins, good luck everybody! See you at Cowes!

Looking like it will be a good sight with a bit of noise but where are all the smaller boats ? it a shame that some of the many Phantom and Ring owners on here aren't having a go it's a great race but no boats in the smaller classes this year has it been advertised anywhere ?

That's a pity thought it sounded like things were really coming together well with Drew's engineer doing the spanner work and therefore a 6o min's testing session in Bournemouth bay would be a great way of testing for the gremlins and you may have been the only boat fast enough to run with the 32' cat shown entered
...and hopefully a few more 200hp boats will enter to make it a great event, the V24 guys are gathering forces though

I believe Cinzano 558 will give the cat a run for its money!

watching the X cat series over on youtube seems to indicate the leading boats run around 185kph around 115mph in Dubai on what looks like flat sea's, but over the years Bournemouth bay has kicked up quite a sea, should this be the case it is unlikely the cat will be able to blast out of the 80's and that could mean Cinzano will sense blood, should be fun to watch

Not got the latest one but this was covered before on here it does say one or the other but in the table e1 it says both have got several sets never used all expired so bit of a waste for one race unless I do Cowes as well.

Great boat, we took a pic of you running at Cowes last year, don't know if you have seen it but it's a good one.
You should run that in the RB12!!
