| This year we will again feature the new Classic Thunderboat class in addition to the Scale Unlimited Class. Classic Thunderboats are scale appearing round nosed and dropped sponson Thunderboats from the fifties and sixties. They may or may not look identical to Thunderboats that once ran in the Classic era but that doesn't take anything away from their appearance, speed, and excitement from watching these boats race through the turns. They are Gas powered by 26 cc water cooled weed wacker or line trimmer motors designed for marine application. These boats are four to four and one half feet in length and travel between 50 and 55 miles per hour. |
| We have added other popular boat classes to the Worlds Series of Powerboat Racing emulating their real counterparts that will be running on Mission Bay. The Crackerbox Class and Unlimited Lights Class. |
