First Outing for the Long Awaited GT30

The new GT 30 powered by Evinrudes E-Tec 30hp from Powertech Marine had its debut outing at Stewartby this weekend. The whole experience was a complete success achieving speeds of nearly 50mph in the hands of Ben Morse former Briitish J250 champion and then Sam Whittle, both clearly loved the performance and handling exiting the cockpit with broad grins. FSG Composites of Burntwood, Staffs. made a great job of the boat, and along with BRM Racing and who supplied props between them have provided an ideal platform for Evinrudes new Green E-Tec 30hp engine. This combination is going to provide a lively and afordable stepping stone from junior racing as the boat can also be run in that class with a 15hp engine. Watch out for more from Evinrude as they develop engines for other powerboat classes in the near future.

Was there medium chop or was it porpoising some? It is neat to see newly introduced engines being raced already. It'll be even better when tweaking and modifying those small DFI's come into play.

Two thumbs up to small outboard racing!
