i,m after a copy of the rya,s PB1 but they are out stock and its not something my local chandelry carrys can any body recommed a shop that will have on. amazon does not.

I don't think the RYA published one this year. If the did, I didn't get mine.
As far as I understand it, we're still running to PB1/04.

But I could be wrong ,,,,,,, !!

You can download extracts from PB1 from http://www.biboa.com/pb1_index.htm . Not sure how up to date it is though!

verytricky · 19-10-2005, 10:59 AM

You are correct.

The new and improved RYA did not manage to publish a PB1 for 2005, and are running on the 2004 BP1.

What did you need to know?

sinkunit0 · 19-10-2005, 06:10 PM

i,m rerigging my boat over the winter and may want to race.So i want to rig it to race spec

This is correct we have been running to PB1 / 04 & will be until the new PB1 arrives . This will be a new book & no longer published annually according to the RYA.

If you are more specific about what class or Racing you intend to do then I can send you the relevant pages or possibly a copy of PB1/04

Or use the UIM rules as a guideline - available for download on their site.

Would that be the actual UIM rules or the Italian version?

Matt · 19-10-2005, 09:43 PM

I guess it depends which rule you're interested in - choose whichever is preferable

I would use the Italian rules, they are much better!

floater · 19-10-2005, 10:13 PM

first rule being ....you must be in front of the start boat eh?!!

sinkunit0 · 20-10-2005, 06:05 PM

i was thinking of f200

BluFin · 30-03-2006, 10:07 AM

Is there a PB1 for 2005 on the web ?

CB1 · 30-03-2006, 12:27 PM

There is a new publication for powerboat racing. Its now called "offshore racing handbook". I have 1 in front of me now. They are not going to issue yearly anymore and will add amendments when ness. Its out of date already!!!!!!

StormingNorman · 30-03-2006, 12:55 PM

It is easier/cheaper/more supportive/less hassle to apply for a foreign race licence.
The new 'offshore racing PB1' was being sold in WH Smiths @ £8.50.
If you get a foreign race licence you do actually have to get the boat wet to get race points.....
I think the RSPB would do a better job running UK powerboating than the RYA.

mandy · 30-03-2006, 01:22 PM

I thought The OFFSHORE RACING HANDBOOK, is the PB1, or so it says it is!!!!!

BluFin · 30-03-2006, 01:33 PM

Alright try another way?
The RYA web site now offers a "Classic" licence But I cant find any info on the class on the RYA web site is it defined in the book then???

CB1 · 30-03-2006, 06:09 PM

In simple terms NO. Its that out of date they've not even put in 3c boat wieghts for epa engines. The uim have brought out new 730 rules for class 3 with canopies but no mention in the handbook.

BluFin · 30-03-2006, 08:28 PM

Oh thats OK then, So if I have got it right there are accepting licence applicationsand issuing licences for a class they havent published the rules for in the latest handbook & it's not on the web site.
