So far Interest in the 2008 Round Britain Powerboat Race has been quite phenomenal . Many potential competitors, some from the 1984 event, have already registered their interest in taking part and as in 1969 and 1984 we expect that over fifty powerboats will cross the start line on their first leg . This will be a huge spectacle. The race is, of course, subject to raising the appropriate sponsorship.
There will be meaningful prize money for the first TEN boats home plus prize money and superb Trophies for 1st 2nd and 3rd in each class.
We are delighted to announce that the famous and prestigious Beaverbrook Trophy, has been offered by The Beaverbrook Foundation to be presented to the overall Winner of the Race.
