It really couldn't be easier to get involved with the World's Wildest Watersport. Simply get in touch with us through the contact page and we'll be more than happy to take you out for a run in one of our club boats - it'll cost you nowt, nada, diddly-squat, zilch. If you like it (which you most certainly will), then we'll take you through all of the options open to you - from just coming out regularly with us for run-runs, right up to sourcing your own boat for racing at national and international level. Contact Us Our Community While racing at the very top level is what gets many people going - and it's something many of our racers do very well - we've got lots of folks who just want to hit the water on a regular basis for some good old fashioned fun ....and we're happy to oblige. We're on the water pretty much every weekend, regardless of the conditions, so a few hours on the water is never more than a few days away for you. While many of our Thundercatters should really be kept locked away from polite society you will find that they're a friendly bunch - most of them don't bite ...and we've muzzled those that do - so we've got a pretty good social side to the whole sport. It's water, it's waves, it's exhilerating and it's all available to you .......so come on and join the team! P750 (Thundercat) Racing Ireland has a comprehensive Health and Safety Policy to make sure that our teams can race safely and securely, to minimise risk to themselves or those around them. We ensure, by regular risk assessments and through continuous monitoring, that the safety of our people and those around which we operate are paramount at all times.
Looking to buy a boat? There are three main hull manufacturers (and they all use the same Tohatsu 50hp engine). These are Aquarius, Ceasar and Gemini - each with their own good and bad points. There are a few other manufacturers - some ok, some really not so good at all ....so we'd strongly recommend that you get good advice before parting with your readies. We don't actually sell them here at Thundercat Racing Ireland - we prefer to be able to give you impartial advice and then send you out there looking - but we do know some people that do. Your first port-of-call would be Clive Hawkins (087 232 4104) - he's the agent for Aquarius and he'll see you right, whether you're looking for new or second-hand. Failing that it's d'internet. A new rig (boat, engine, trailer, tank, etc.) should come in well under 10k and a decent second-hand rig could start from as little as 3,500. Again, we're here to help with free and impartial advice.
