2021 Speedboat Spectacular
Unfortunately due to the number of personnel required to manage the lingering effects of covid limitations in addition to the usual management roles for volunteers, we have decided to cancel the 2021 Spectacular. We are aiming for our next Spectacular to be in February 2022
2020 Speedboat Spectacular
Please refer to the 2020 Centenary Speedboat Spectacular page for details.
2019 JUNE SPECTACULAR
The Speedboat Spectacular, originally scheduled for February, is now confirmed for 29 & 30 June 2019. Previous entries are valid. We now also have 3 Australian Championships to be run: Stannard Cup, Hayes Wood Trophy and Mary & Ernie Nunn GP Hydroplane Championship.
2019 SPECTACULAR POSTPONED
It is with deep regret that we have again been forced to postpone our 2019 Speedboat Spectacular
Due to the effects of cyclone Oma and the predicted southerly winds for the weekend the decision has been made to postpone the 2019 Speedboat Spectacular from this weekend until the 29 & 30 June 2019.
Apologies to everyone who was looking forward to a great weekend of racing, but every weather forecast was consistent with predicted winds that would make it unsafe for racing. We have called it as early as possible to save those travelling from interstate a wasted trip, also to minimize expenses for all of the support services.
Current entries will be valid for June, where we hope to add another championship event. Entry fees can be refunded if required, now or later once competitors have determined their availability.
