Perfect for adrenaline-junkies, this experience is wet, wild & extremely fast! You’ll take to the waves at the controls of the Thunderbolt, a catamaran powered by a high performance 90hp outboard. Possessing blisteringly fast acceleration, this craft is one of the quickest cornering boats in the UK. Your instructor will ensure that you make the most of your time at the controls, taking both you & the Thunderbolt to the limit. Typical Programme Your experience begins with a safety briefing & an introduction to the boat. Once changed into the racing team kit & safety gear, you board the Thunderbolt with an experienced instructor who runs through driving procedure to help prepare you for the high adrenaline action. You’ll learn cornering & racing technique, wave jumping & high speed take-offs before tackling the challenging, high speed, offshore circuit. Here you will apply your new boating skills in a race against the clock to find the ‘aquastig’ of the year. Driving is shared with one other guest so each person has at least 30 minutes of driving time. During debrief you will be given a photograph to remember the day.
