[@TheSalesDirector]

Great Job Tim and Terri

[@AttitudeCharter]

Thanks Antonio - it took a lot of time and effort to film and edit this.

[@littlenige]

Still blows my mind to see those TWO Planatec hulls in the same shot in this day and age!

[@AttitudeCharter]

Yeah, me too. Really pleased you enjoyed the footage. Please subscribe for more, about to upload the last race of the year in 2023.

I used to watch it from the press boat when I was a teenager 🙏🏻. Desperately want a ride in Dry Martini when I’m down near Poole 😉

[@AttitudeCharter]

We'd all love a ride in Dry Martini Rob 🙂. We're actually going to see her onland soon. Thanks for your comment.

Absolute Brilliant Video , Pantera 41

[@AttitudeCharter]

Thanks Simon. Great to meet you and Brian and talk about your boat.

[@littlenige]

Really great Tim - hope you are doing the same in 2024.

[@AttitudeCharter]

Thank you for the comment Nigel. I've still got the footage from Round 6 - Southampton to put together yet! Yes, we'll be making more videos next year. It's hard not to love filming those beautiful boats being driven hard.

[@AttitudeCharter]

Yes, we'll be there this year doing the same again...but BETTER!

[@Performancetimely513]

5:22 what boat is pictured here?

[@AttitudeCharter]

That’s a Phantom Evolution with a Mercury Racing 300R outboard. Thanks for your question Ryan.

[@MarkHaywardboatpictures]

Shouldnt get close if you don't want to get wet!

[@AttitudeCharter]

It was hilarious Mark - we both got close to each other LOL. I was going left and Dorian was going right.

[@MarkHaywardboatpictures]

Last time I did CPC - so many spectator boats got in the way especially around Bournemouth Pier/turn Marque @@AttitudeCharter

[@AttitudeCharter]

Yes, was an issue this year with racing boats going in and around spectator boats. But you can't have interest in the sport and total separation of boats out there unless you do what they've done at the Bmth Air Show - totally overreact by pushing spectators so far back it ruins the spectacle completely.

[@raymondwalker795]

good video spoilt by crap music more engine sound please.

[@AttitudeCharter]

Where you can hear engines in our footage Raymond, you can hear engines in the video. Where there is horrible wind noise in our footage, you can hear some tunes instead, wind noise is annoying. There are no wicked engine sounds wasted in this video, we can promise you that. We drop the level of the music in places so you can hear engines. Sorry you don't like dance music. We're going to get a better camera in the interests of reducing wind noise as we only want boat engine sounds. Please subscribe to see the race that followed this one [UKOPRA round 6] coming soon. Thanks very much for watching and for commenting 🙂. Tim

Hi guy's i rather hear the noises of the boats engines than that annoying music it spoil the coverage of the race

[@AttitudeCharter]

We agree with you. Where you can hear engines in our footage Samuael, you can hear engines in the video. Where there is horrible wind noise in our footage, you can hear some tunes instead, wind noise is annoying. There are no wicked engine sounds wasted in this video, we can promise you that. We drop the level of the music in places so you can hear engines. Sorry you don't like dance music.

@@AttitudeCharter ok guy's i understand much love

[@AttitudeCharter]

Thanks @@samuelbugros1887

[@MrWopwink]

Shame they dubbed music over the sound of the boats, lost half the interest doing that😕

[@AttitudeCharter]

The problem with filming at high speed is that you can only pick up loud wind noise and not much of the engine sound. If we use the setting that removes the wind, the engine sounds are too quiet. Where we can showcase the noise of the engines we do becasue we love it too. It's a shame and dissapppointing that we are spending alot of time filming and editing to support this sport only to be criticised without any understanding for the practicality of what it takes. We show people out there close up footage to try and share the experience as best we can, as most people do not have the chance to do this unless they have a boat or helicopter. I can garuntee you would be alot less interested in watching if you have to listen to wind noise through the whole 20 minutes.

A view from the UK. See what happens if you let your kids do the soundtrack......

[@AttitudeCharter]

A kitten and tortoise did the music.
