THE Yarrawonga Foreshore on Lake Mulwala will play host to a full schedule of races for a variety of boat classes over three days this April.
The event run is by the Yarrawonga Mulwala Tourist Centre, in conjunction with the Victorian Speed Boat Club, and will be a great opportunity for families all over the region to enjoy the free festivities and watch some thrilling boat racing on the vast Yarrawonga Foreshore.
The event is generally the domain of the Grand Prix Hydroplanes, the world's fastest circuit race boats which roar across the water at surface speeds in excess of 280 kilometres per hour.
Boats can be of any design to contest the cup, as long as they are inboard and powered by a single automotive engine.
Shaking up EC Griffith Cup and Yarrawonga Fair this year will be the mind–blowing aerobatic displays from Red Bull Air Race World Champion, Matt Hall.
