Happy birthday!!

366 days and +100 000 visitors later for a niche blog on powerboat racing, who could imagine that?

When I and Lars first started to talk about creating a blog based on his vast racing experience and rich archive of stories none of us could imagine that it would gain more than marginal attraction.. but we have been proven very wrong!

Over the past year we have come to realize that there is a huge interest for both racing history as well as news and gossip from both local Swedish as well as international powerboat racing – and Lars has often been first to report, thanks to his huge network in the community.

And through his network he was also one of the first to reveal the new concept from Sea Ray, the Venture 370, which gained loads of interest across the globe.

We have also created a Facebook page (do you Like it?) for social interaction and are looking into integrating that even further to enable an even better information flow for the powerboat racing fans!

Now when SVERA.se is learning to walk on its own and our toddler year is ending we look forward to growing this community, so watch this space!!

 

And.. I guess I shouldn’t be admitting this – But I rather be sailing!

Team Getel med sina medarbetare har gjort ett jättebra jobb dom senaste åren..Att vinna båtrace är viktigt men ibland ännu viktigare att synas.

Eriks F1 premiär gick ju inte så bra i Abu Dhabi men Vi vet alla att när Stark får ording på ekipaget och Erik  känner sig hemma i F1 serien får konkurrenterna se upp..

Igen GRATTIS till Er PR framgång med pressmöten och tidnings artiklar..

Italy is again showing how strong they are in F1 boat racing.

Published by:

DAC and BABA is by far the best boat builders  in F1 racing today.
Back when I was racing Molinari Boats was the one on top.
Well, Seebold if you was a Mercury man.
Velden boats was another good F1 boat.
Independent boat builder David Burgess won many World Champion titles
when F1 was 2 liter.
Roger Jenkins was F1-V8 World Champ 1982 in a Burgess.
Molinari boats, Velden Boats and Burgess boats is not around anymore.
To win a F1 race today your boat must be “Made in Italy”..and then beat all the good drivers from Italy.
Italy has always been  very strong  in high level boat racing.
.
Congratulations Alex Carella to your second  F1 World Champion Title.
