BRACKETS 4 & 5

These race boats are categorized into Bracket Classes, each with specific speed limits they cannot exceed (“breakout” speed). The boats are assigned to these classes based on a calculated formula that considers various factors such as prop slip, prop size, boat weight, and other performance characteristics. Each class ensures fair competition by keeping the boats within their designated speed range, maintaining a level playing field for all participants.
