Welcome
to the Official Website of the New Zealand Power Boat Association Inc.
The NZPBA is the governing body
in New Zealand for circuit power boat racing. The NZPBA is affiliated
to the New Zealand Power Boat Federation Inc. who are in turn affiliated
to the world governing body the UIM (Union International Montonutique).
Here in NZ we race many types of craft on oval or triangular left hand
turn tracks which range in overall length of between 1 and 2 kilometers.
Our courses are on New Zealand’s many inland waterways, lakes, rivers
and sheltered harbour's.
Circuit racing boats include Hydroplanes, Racing Runabouts, V-Bottoms
and Tunnel Boats. They range in size and speed from ten (10) foot long
with a top speed of 60 kph boats through to the big GP Hydroplanes that
are seven (7) metres in length and capable of speeds of over 250kph.
On this site you will find class descriptions, race team profiles, our
race calendar, racing news, classified advertisements, contact details
for provincial clubs, drivers clubs and our national executive as well
as photo galleries of our current and past racers. There is also a growing
page of links to other boat racing sites.
Please don’t hesitate to contact NZPBA via the Secretary or any of our Provincial Clubs for more information on the exciting sport of power boating.
