ON a cold grey day at Carr Mill Dam we needed power and were given it by the way of power boats.

These pocket rockets were taking part in the Turner Trophy. 

With a very small crowd (due to the unpredictable weather) the boats and racers gave their all and more. 

I can only say that if you get the chance get along and watch these lads and lasses battle power and the elements to provide an entertaining afternoon.
