The Team
The Premier Cru Racing Team are competing in the 150 Powerboat series, where 18 identical boats at 21 foot each, make up 18 competitive teams, to give you the largest and most exciting offshore powerboat racing in the world.
In 2006, Premier Cru scored an overall 4th finishing place in the 150hp Championship, and the highlight of the season came in achieving 1st place spot in Cowes. In the coming season, 2007 the team is aiming to build on this and hopes are high of gaining even more of those coveted podium finishes.
