Power boat racing returns once again to Windermere for its 93rd season Saturday (June 15), which sees the first of three afternoons of racing on Windermere in which boats of various classes race against one another using a handicap system.

The other two dates that have been granted exemption from the speed limit this year are July 6 and September 28.

Members of the public have been invited by the organisers to goalong and watch the event from the clubhouse Broad Leys, which is situated along the Newby Bridge Road (postcode LA2 3LJ).

Racing will start at noon and finish by 5pm.

Refreshments will be available to purchase from the foreshore kitchen.

MORE TOP STORIES: 

For those people with a love of architecture, the famous Arts & Crafts building designed by CFA Voysey will be open between 11am and 1pm for guided tours.

Parking is not available at the venue due to limited space.

Viewing by boat away from the circuit is welcome and the race will be marshalled by patrol boats with blue flags and the Lake District National Park Authority Ranger.

Entry is free.
