Hervey Bay 2019, Rolls and Fire.

Wednesday, 04 December 2019 / Published in Latest News

Hervey Bay 2019, Rolls and Fire.

As the offshore superboat teams rolled in to Hervey Bay for the final weekend of the season excitement was high for a great weekend of racing, and the inclusion of the sports class, 60 mph and 85 mph for the weekend supporters had plenty to watch over the 2 days.

Saturdays sports classes ran without incident, the superboats entered the course with normal Hervey Bay waters of challenging, on the first lap “Team Hulk” Mick Walker and Paul Fowlds rolled the boat with the boat upside down both crew escaped the boat through the tunnel hatch unhurt, same could not be said for the boat which sustain some damage.

At the restart on the first corner ” The Judge” Matt Turner and John Shand Rolled and in doing so upside down hit “Maritimo 11” Ross and Andrew Willaton which caught fire, all crew managed to exit their boats.

This brought an end to the racing for Saturday.

Sunday morning the weather had worsened and course boats struggled to get out to the course to lay the course markers, Unfortunately due to deteriorating sea conditions and in consideration of our volunteer support crew, the racing has been cancelled.

This is very dissapointing to our supporters on the beach and to the teams.

With great local support from,

Fraser Coast Tourism

Ramada Hotel

Pier Caravan Park

Hervey Bay City Council

Wide Bay Cranes
