The Cowes Torquay Offshore Powerboat Race
The 200-mile offshore race classic has long been recognised as one of powerboating’s toughest challenges, and comparisons have been made with motorsport events such as Le Mans and the Indy 500.
Race viewing points and times are scheduled in advanced so we can be sure to catch the best of the action.
