Englewood Beach Waterfest

UKOPRA regulars James Norvill and Andy Foster head to Englewood Beach, Florida this weekend for crucial practice ahead of November’s Key West World Championships.

The British pairing will campaign a Phantom 32 V-bottom powered by a Mercury Racing 520 sterndrive in the Class 400 category, targeting speeds around 85mph.

Powerboat racing returns to the Suncoast 9-12 October 2025 during the annual Englewood Beach Waterfest event.

This year Englewood will host the 2025 World Championship for the (APBA) American Powerboat Association and the UIM (Union Internationale Motonautique).
