7.5cc winner Erich Costa

The 7.5cc final was the most competitive. Three boats were in with a chance of the title for most of the race.

Sylvain Petitjean led the 7.5cc final for most of the time,
he was chased relentlessly by BoBo Kwok and then
Erich Costa. The boat became difficult to handle as the fuel was used and eventually turned over in the last minute whilst attempting to keep ahead of Erich Costa.

Bobo Kwok thinks of what may have been after crashing out whilst trying to pass Sylvain Petitjean for the lead.


15cc Junior winner Wojciech Gozdek

 

 Dave Marles top qualified for the 15cc final with his Tornado EVO4. He was out of luck in the final itself, he later discovered a loose throttle linkage was causing problems for the first couple of laps, he attempted to return to the pits but his boat had a radio glitch at the left hand end of the pontoon and hit the moored rescue boat resulting in disqualification.
