Come and enjoy the ‘Goolwa Aquafest Spectacular’ classic speedboat event.

​

Experience the sights and sounds of classic and modern race boats. A rare opportunity to be able to get close to the boats in the pits and see some heart pumping action on the water.

​

It’s a weekend full of beautiful vintage, classic and modern race & speedboats strutting their stuff at the Goolwa Aquatic Club.

You will see vintage wooden hydroplanes, skiffs, classic old wooden race, and ski boats, plus fibreglass classic race & ski boats right up to modern style race boats.

​

When not in the water the boats will be on display in the pit area and accessible to the public who want a closer look.

The event is fully catered and family friendly with food and coffee vans and the lawned banks for spectators to set up and get comfortable.

​

The GAC clubrooms are licensed, and Bombora on the River is adjacent for those that want to eat in style (recommend that you book)

​

This is a full two-day event with the boats taking part in formalised heats where common styles of craft take to the water and put on a demonstration of the golden years of speedboat events.

​

​Admission is FREE both days for spectators.

 

It’s a fantastic family day with something for everyone to enjoy.
