F4 Class
This class  was introduced in the UK for 2013 and is the green alternative to the original F4 class. This is  the entry level Circuit catamaran class for drivers aged 14 upwards with no upper age limit.

The class has been running across the world the last 4 years and competitions are held at National, European and World level as well an additional support class at the world F1 series.

F4 Powerboat Racing uses a tunnel hull catamaran design of a smaller size to the F2 Powerboat but is capable of both high speeds and exceptional manoeuvrability. Due to their specially designed hulls, F4 boats are able to turn almost instantaneously making racing extremely exhilarating.

Using factory ‘standard’ engines where modifications are forbidden, the F4 Class keeps running costs to a minimum and produces close, competitive racing.

Most of the UK’s F2 drivers perfected their skills in the F4s class before going on to win at both National & International level.
