Raceboat Extreme

 The Experience
The Honda Formula 4-Stroke championship (HF4S) is the largest, most exciting offshore powerboat series in the world. Feel the speed and grace of this highly responsive racing machine. She can power through almost any water at high speed sending the boat flying high above the surface. Your experience begins with a safety briefing and an introduction to the boat. You then get changed into the racing team kit and safety gear. The Driver (usually a current or past racer) then heads into the Solent to show what the boat can do. Your two hours on board includes approximately 15-20 minutes of hands-on driving and tuition. The boat operates within Southampton Water and extends into the Solent so bring a disposable camera. The boat is soft riding and the seating comfortable. Be prepared for the ride of your life!
