Newly-named Cowes Powerboat Festival to feature three races over August Bank Holiday weekend. British Powerboat Racing Club in new partnership with Powerboat P1 to grow the event. World-famous tourism destination Experience Kissimmee becomes presenting sponsor.

Powerboat P1, the international marine motorsport promoter, and the British Powerboat Racing Club (BPRC) have jointly announced a new partnership for this year’s Cowes Torquay Cowes offshore powerboat race that sees P1 provide marketing, communications and sponsorship support for the 63rd staging of the famous event in August.

Based in Cowes on the Isle of Wight, the British Powerboat Racing Club organises the Cowes Torquay race which has been running since 1961. This was the first powerboat race outside the USA and is the longest running race in the world. Held every year over the August Bank Holiday weekend with international teams competing in different classes, the race covers a challenging 210-mile course along the south coast of England. Boats reach speeds in excess of 100mph, with the fleet racing non-stop to Torquay on the South Devon coast, where the teams will stop for approximately 90 minutes to the delight of local crowds, before returning non-stop to Cowes.

Earlier this month Powerboat P1 announced details of a unique agreement with Experience Kissimmee that sees the world-famous tourism destination in Central Florida sponsor both UIM Class 1 offshore racing and this year’s Cowes Torquay Cowes event. “We are thrilled with the evolution of our established partnership with P1 and joining the historic and prestigious Cowes endurance race in the UK presents another exciting opportunity for us to spotlight Kissimmee and its family-friendly attractions in one of our top international visitor markets,” commented DT Minich, President/CEO of Experience Kissimmee.

The racing fleet will assemble at Cowes Yacht Haven for scrutineering and safety inspection on Friday 23 August. The Cowes Torquay Cowes race will start at 9.30 the following morning (Saturday 24 August) followed immediately afterwards by the Cowes Poole Cowes race at 10.00am. Both races will start off the Squadron Line, Egypt Point, in the Solent. Sunday will see the start of the Round the Island Race at 10.00am, a unique event that the founders of the BPRC started in 1968 for all sizes of both race and leisure boats, old and new.

Blastoff established a Marathon Class C record at 83.49 mph on Lake Coniston in late 2015 and then achieved a second place overall in the 2016 Cowes Torquay Cowes.

What is prw.

It’s a powerboat racing website that has covered circuit racing, offshore racing and PWC since 2016. Maintained by The Race Factory based in Norway who have specialists in event planning and promotion, social media, graphic design, and photography. We are currently working on our vision and believe that we can and will make a different in powerboating. We will dedicate our time to produce accurate factual stories and to promote the sport to a wider global audience.

There must be something about the date 02-02-2022 that inspires offshore racing series organisers to publish their calendars. So, having seen what’s happening across the pond in the sunshine state the British based United Kingdom Offshore Powerboat Racing Association published their World ‘Offshore’ Powerboat Championships for 2022.

Amongst those racers keen to see what’s happening was Miles Jennings who once again will be racing on both sides of the pond.

I’m looking forward to collecting a lot of Air Miles this year. I’m starting off the season by racing around the Isle of Wight, just off the south coast of England with Drew Langdon in Silverline Bullet at the opening round of the UKOPRA series. Then two weeks later I’m in Cocoa Beach, Florida with P1 Offshore and Zabo Racing.

Jennings went onto say.

We had a pre-season meeting with a lot of the UK racers earlier this week and I’m really excited to see that we are going to have the largest amount of UKOPRA Class 1 competitors ever seen. It’s going to look like the great days of UK offshore racing from back in the 1990’s.

UKOPRA 2022 World ‘Offshore’ Powerboat Championships.

30 April/01 May – Round the Island / Southampton

10/11/12 June – Poole Bay 100 / Poole Quay

14/18 July – Guernsey Gold Cup / Guernsey

27/28 August – Cowes Torquay Cowes / Cowes Poole Cowes / Isle of Wight

CIRCUIT POWERBOAT ASSOCIATION

Stewartby powerboat & hydroplace racing club.

Stewartby Powerboat & Hydroplane Racing Club is the Powerboat Section of Stewartby Water Sports Club (SWSC) We are based at Stewartby Lake in the Forest Of Marston Vale in Bedfordshire.

In the 1930s Stewartby Lake, which is 220 acres of open water, was a clay pit where the brickworks obtained clay for the making of bricks. When it was no longer required it was filled with water & the beginnings of a leisure facility were born.

SWSC was formed in 1972 on land leased from the London Brick Company, which is now controlled by the Marston Vale Trust.

As a Powerboat Training Centre, we hold Taster Days when prospective powerboat racers can come & have a go. This can then lead to a Full Training Day which upon completion paths the way to obtaining a powerboat racing licence. We have 3training boats for this purpose.

The club members participate in Club & National Championship Racing which takes place at various clubs around the country as well as at Stewartby.

Over the course of our history we have hosted many International Championships when we have had teams from all over Europe & the World.

We pride ourselves on being a hospitable & welcoming club to members from all over the world.
