"Formula 3"

F3 is a combination of our smaller classes and encompasses the following boats 1650cc Hydroplane (formerly B Class) 2000cc Inboard Racing Runabout (formerly D Class) 1000cc Outboard Tunnel (formerly O Class) The combination of the three different hull types and the fact they run on short tight tracks and also on a F1 type triangular track where venues are suitable makes for spectacular racing. The hydros are capable of speeds of 100mph and the tunnels and flatties 80-85mph but the tight fast cornering characteristics of the tunnel and flattie keep them in the race on these courses with the faster hydroplanes.
