They are going very fast with that one 68 knots/78 miles!!! They are almost as fast as the Argocats!!!!
They are aiming for 70 knots/80 miles before the session is over.

No I’m not PVN-Racing that is a Norwegian team that is driving a Twister cat.
The boat is not ready yet but I will see if I can find some pictures of it.

It would appear that Norway, Finland and Sweden are the only countries still running 3B.
Having said that South Africa and the Uk (inc the CI) were the only other countries I remember competing at this level.
Were there any others?

Well we managed to beat ALL of the cats in race 2 at the 3C worlds in Norway, and it wasn't that rough because we came 3rd behind 2 batboats!
