A Devastating Crash Ends Double Trouble's Season | UKOPRA Lymington Challenge E10

What should have been a victorious race for Double Trouble turned into disaster at the UKOPRA Lymington Challenge. Leading the pack, we faced a devastating collision with another competitor, causing severe damage and nearly sinking our boat. Thankfully, both Tom and Gary are safe, but Double Trouble is not so lucky.

In this episode, you'll see exclusive footage of the moments before the crash and the aftermath. We take you behind the scenes as we haul Double Trouble back to our workshop in Cornwall, where we begin the long winter process of disassembly, removing the twin 9-litre supercharged V8 engines, and repairing the hull. It’s going to be a challenging rebuild, but our dedicated team of volunteers is ready.

About Double Trouble: Double Trouble is a Fountain 42 Offshore Racing Powerboat, powered by twin 9-litre big block supercharged V8s, built by Express Engines. We compete in the UK Class 1 Championship, operating on a tight budget and supported by a passionate garage team of volunteers in Cornwall. Ours is a true underdog story in the world of offshore racing.
