If there is someone out there who wondered like myself what it would be like to be in a race then contact the OCRDA (Offshore circuit racing drivers association).They have a Phantom boat with a yamaha 130 that you and your navigator can rent for the weekend to "ave a go" at racing.If you log onto the site
www.ocrda.org all the details are there .I navigated in this boat at Plymouth and it was a great experience.I thought the sunday was rough sea but i was later informed that, that was nothing! I reccomend this way of trying out racing to anybody.
