Whilst the rest of the UK was experiencing torrential rain for those who made it to Aberdeen enjoyed the sunshine, large crowds and a great new venue for Zapcat Racing.

The best part of a 1500 mile round trip is long by anyone's standards and the majority of teams took the opportunity for some sight seeing on the way and back turning rounds 11 & 12 into a short break which really set the relaxed tone for the weekend.

With slightly fewer teams than expected gave the race organisers the chance to alter the structure of the weekend mixing up division one and two boats, which put a smile on quite a few competitors especially Neil & Naz in PatioDoorStore.co.uk who have been itching to take on the likes of Bluesheets, BladeRun, Speedy Hire & Team Suffolk.

Whilst the rest of the UK has been having a really bad day weather wise for those who made the very long trip up to Aberdeen have been bathed in sunshine and entertaining a very enthusiastic crowd.

Some very close and exciting racing made the day even better, with fewer entries than expected there were a couple of revisions made to the programme which mixed things up even more.

Two trophies will effectively be decided next weekend when Zapcat Racing arrives in Aberdeen and hits the golden sands of the beach.  With swells of 3.5 foot or more it may even count towards the Zapcat King of the Surf championship too?

Even with a slight swell spectators will be guaranteed some entertainment as the powerboats take to the air!

This is the first time Zapcat Racing has headed this far north and Aberdeen completes the four Grand Prix Celtic Cup competitions of Edinburgh, Prestatyn and Barry Island and the three GP event of the City Championship that has also included tour stops in Belfast and Edinburgh.
