Welcome to Team-21

The wooden prototype hull goes like a rocket just 0.75 seconds a lap off the all time OSY400 lap record.

If your looking to take part or already do and are looking for a really competitive hull then please take a look at the News and Events section or click on this link http://www.team-21.co.uk/post/Newace-III-Trials.aspx. Our wooden prototype hull soon to be manufactured in a composite form has huge success in its first major outing.

The Newace prototype hull has turned a few heads and lots of interest has been shown ready for its manufacture in the winter period. 

Class of Boat

The boat that I compete in is known as an OSY (Outboard Stock Yamato) 400, this class is a hydroplane class; the boat has a flat Bottom and is about thirteen feet long. It rides just on the surface of the water with only its propeller in the water, The engine is a 400cc Yamato, Japanese made with 33hp, the top speed is just over 70mph. The engine is low compression that enhances reliability. This means it is a stock engine, which has to be kept standard to make competition closer and results more down to driver ability and skill.
