Yep , that is a hydroplane. Still raced in the UK in that size. Usualy up to 1 litre both outboard and inboard engines. Midlands , Essex and Oulton Broad are strongholds. Exciting to watch, bit like speedway on water with heats. The unlimited classes in USA are realy amazing with Merlin engines now being replaced with gas turbines.
