Welcome to Team 25 Racing

Formed in 2007, Southampton based Team 25 Racing was put together by Scott Younger to compete once again in offshore Powerboat racing.

Having spent his whole life racing everything from BMX to motorbikes and rally cars to powerboats, Scott has always enjoyed a passion for high speed pursuits and the opportunity to return to a long-held love of offshore powerboating sees this successful businessman putting back together a new team with navigator Simon Yeadon.

Last year the team took delivery of a new boat - a Sunseeker XS2000. This 39' monohull has a proven track record in the much acclaimed international Powerboat P1 offshore series and it has been race prepared over the winter ready to compete in both domestic and international endurance events throughout 2009 and beyond.

With the success of the Round Britain Race 2008 and the revival of the Cowes-Torquay-Cowes marathon event, offshore powerboating is currently enjoying a revival throughout Europe, and a series of high profile events are on the race calendar for the 2009 season.
