Martinique Jet Race this weekend - April 15 through 17. Located on the tropical island of the French Caribbean, with friendly people, gourmet cuisine, museums and world famous rum distilleries, we cannot imagine a more ideal setting for a PWC Race. This endurance offshore race will last throughout 3 days, riding through warm waters (25c/ 77F) as well as beautiful scenery. But the great location still will have its challenges. Each day the racers need to complete the 124 miles (200km) for a total of 372 miles (600km) of endurance riding, with only 1 fuel stop per day. Friday, the racers embark from the Martinique Capital, Fort de France. Saturday the pilots ride to St. Anne in the South, and by the end of the race will arrive in historic Saint-Pierre, the location of Mount Pelee in the north, where the rough waters make for the most challenging part of the course. The results were sent to Jetskiworld.gr by Luis, the mechanic of the Portuguese team, who finished 4th in the first heat.

There is a lot of talking about the FZR and the latest news about it is that most probably this year will be its last in Yamaha’s line up. Next year most probably the muscle craft for Yamaha will be the new GP1800 SVHO. It will a revamped version of the VX SVHO. Japanese team HKS was racing for two years a prototype Yamaha hull which was a VX bottom heavily modified. Another team, in the USA, also raced the VX and also it was equipped with two aftermarket hulls from Europe that were never raced. Yamaha USA also got 4 prototype hulls from Japan that were very similar to the hull used by HKS Team. So the scenario is almost completed.
