2017 Chasewater Grand Prix – this weekend!

A treat for enthusiasts and casual spectators alike!

This Saturday and Sunday (15th and 16th July 2017) will be quite a special weekend for the local powerboat community as Chasewater hosts the PowerBoatGP 2017 Chasewater Grand Prix at our favourite reservoir and country park.

There are races both days, and the action commences at 10:00am and runs through to 5pm, and I believe it’s free to spectate – so why not pop up and take a look?

You can check out the PowerGP website here.

This all harks back to the golden age of powerboat racing at Chasewater and the 24 Hour races – which I’ve covered here before. It’s great to see this kind of thing return.

The organisers of the Chasewater Grand Prix, PowerGP had this to say:
