P1 Panther pulls punters at Jersey Boat Show

Powerboat P1’s new 250hp Panther boat created a stir at last weekend's Jersey Boat Show as the countdown began to its racing debut in the Peters & May Jersey Grand Prix of the Sea at St Aubin’s Bay on 11/12 June. The one-design 28ft boat will compete at five venues in this year's UK SuperStock Championship, which sees head-to-head match racing being introduced for the first time.

Pictured with the P1 Panther (left to right) are Port of Jersey Commercial Director Myra Shacklady, Howard Le Cornu , Port of Jersey CEO and Harbour Master and P1 SuperStock Teams Development Manager Paolo Callea, whilst local Team Fox racers Liam McDermott and Martin Colligan try the cockpit for size.
