Greek RIB racing
Really good racing in Greece - and a shamless excuse to show a few of my designs racing over there! Two wins and a second out of three classes in their first championship round of the year.
All Technohulls, 688 first 200hp, 888 first 300hp and a 999 second in twin 300hp class.
Anyway - shows what good racing can all be about - with good venues and a bity of promotion.

Looks Good Adam-Do all your hulls fly ie; not touch the water or just good photography to catch them all airbourne or is it 'Red Bull Gives you Wings' Cheers Nic

They are running very well - but no doubt the best photos are the ones that get sent to me.
Main thing as with nearly all raceboats, but especially with the stepepd hulls, is trying to get the boats to fly as level as possible when they get airborn. Certainly we have quick hulls with the Technohulls but a lot of work has also gone into the set-ups / balance etc.
