Thundercats are go! It was a high-speed adrenaline fulled day at the Waterfront with the Thunder Cat Inflatable Boat Races! The sun was out most of the day and for those who braved the impending rain clouds there were thrills and excitement for people of all ages!

The speed boat pilots treated the crowd to several show-races, warm ups for the big event - There were two races - the Adults and the Youth. The Adults started first with a large group of contenders - half-way through the race something caused the Red Flag to be raised from the control deck, and the race was re-started. The exciting race was re-run and eventually won by the 'Liqor Moly' boat. After a quick rest, the young people lined up for their race. Only four contestants this time. The race got off to an exciting start as the first rule is that the engines are started *after* the starter blows the horn, and one boat couldn't get started! Once going they quickly caught up and eventually took the win for the race! An exciting day with some exciting boating theatrics, and luckily no accidents or injuries. Great work to the winners - check out all the exciting photos below!
