Class 1 Powerboat (160mph boats) GP Meet (Plymouth, August)

[Matt]

The dates have been confirmed now for the 2006 season, and the British GP is in Plymouth on the 4-6th August

Would anyone be interested in meeting for this? It's a free event that goes on from Friday to Sunday. No dates for the Honda Powerboats have been given, but these will also 'probably' be there.

Here's a few photos i've taken from the official site to show you what to expect!

I'll probably turn up like i have for the last X years
I'll badly need a tele lens for it though good excuse to get a 70-200 f4 L

That looks like a good weekend, pity it's so far away

Only problem with the Plymouth GP is they really don't come that close, ideally you need a 400mm+, or a boat

Im interested. I think my Sigma 120-300 2.8 with a 1.4x or 2x converter should hopefully do the trick.

Liverpool is good as they do get very close

RipCurl Boardmasters is on at the same time... so there would be something else to see / photograph if you want
