Tauranga Harbour boomed again on Sunday to the tune of hydroplanes. The Masport Cup was contested at the Tauranga leg of the 2010 Grand Prix Hydroplane Series and the unmistakable engine noise from the water has drawn hundreds of people at various times down to the waterfront to watch.
Richard Summerell, staff and guests of Maui Ocean Products take a rest from the racing and enjoy a big spit roasted pork.

Why charge $20 to see it when you can watch for free. I noticed plenty of empty seats. Greed got the better of them, had they charged $5 they would not have had any empty seats. Even $10 would have been acceptable but imagin taking the family of four out to watch this fantastic racing, that makes it very costly for the average guys about town.
