Hungarian textile company ProSport Apparel has established itself as a trusted supplier of race apparel to leading powerboat racing teams across multiple UIM championships.
Custom Solutions for Powerboat Racing
Based in Dunaújváros, the company under the direction of Elek Kozma has supplied Powerboat News alongside teams competing in UIM F1H2O, F2 and F4 championships. The firm operates from premises in the industrial city south of Budapest.
ProSport Apparel specialises in sublimation printing technology, producing racing apparel from 100 per cent quality polyester construction. The company offers custom design options and complete team kit solutions ranging from polo shirts to hoodies.
Sublimation Printing Technology
The Hungarian firm’s approach centres on sublimation printing, which allows for vibrant, durable graphics that withstand the demanding conditions of powerboat racing. This printing method infuses designs directly into the fabric rather than applying them to the surface, resulting in graphics that will not crack, peel or fade through repeated washing and wear.
Teams can specify their own designs, with ProSport Apparel managing the process from initial concept through to final production. The company covers 25 different sports through its broader operations as part of Printelek Kft.
Full Team Kit Supply
The range available extends beyond standard team shirts to encompass complete wardrobes for racing teams. Options include short and long-sleeved garments, zip-up hoodies, jackets and caps, all produced to team specifications.
For powerboat racing teams requiring consistent branding across their pit crews, drivers and support staff, ProSport Apparel offers coordinated solutions that maintain visual identity both on and off the water.

John Moore’s involvement in powerboat racing began in 1981 when he competed in his first offshore powerboat race. After a career as a Financial Futures broker in the City of London, specialising in UK interest rate markets, he became actively involved in event organisation and powerboat racing journalism.
He served as Event Director for the Cowes–Torquay–Cowes races between 2010 and 2013. In 2016, he launched Powerboat Racing World, a digital platform providing global powerboat racing news and insights. The following year, he co-founded UKOPRA, helping to rejuvenate offshore racing in the United Kingdom. He sold Powerboat Racing World in late 2021 and remained actively involved with UKOPRA until 2025.
In 2025, he established Powerboat News, returning to independent journalism with a focus on neutral and comprehensive coverage of the sport.
