Forget a fuzzy feline on the wind-swept moors of Bodmin, the only big cat worth seeing was jetting about on the Solent last Friday!

The all new P1-28SS Panther was getting pushed through its paces by Neil Holmes and the UK’s finest marine journos  who got to experience the boat from the navigator’s seat. The  protype  boat looked crisp in its plain white guise as it skipped over the wake, but the teams already have big plans for the look of their craft.

With the first race in Jersey now on the horizon , it’s an exciting time for the UK marine industry as the crème-de-la-crème of racers get ready to go head-to-head!
