Thanks Grant Heeley for all you did for Hyrdoplane Racing in Australia, and for everything you were trying to do in the background with the Lucas Oil Australia HydroplaneNDC - your absence will leave a big hole in the sport 🙏🏁

Our thoughts are with Karin Heeley and the 'Whitenoise' Hydroplane team today after the passing overnight of two-time E.C. Griffith Cup Champion team-owner Grant Heeley. Grant was an exceptional bloke that loved motorsport, winning the 2024 Griffith Cup one of his career highlights, doing it again in 2025 outside of his wildest dreams. Boat racing will be poorer with his passing, but the sport will come together to support Karin and his legacy in the months and years to come. RIP GH 🏆🏆🏁

Great to see the grand old Dame still firing around at the Griffith Cup, a fantastic piece of Australian motorsport history 👊🇦🇺🏁

There might be an epic battle brewing for this year's E.C. Griffith Cup at the Yarrawonga Powerboat Spectacular with the Kiwis returning to try and take the coveted trophy back across the Tasman, but there will be just as much focus on the multiple Cup winning Russell Jones-piloted 'Aussie Connection' as it storms its way around Lake Mulwala looking for another win.. Oh the sound of that mighty Merlin V12 ❤️🇦🇺🏁

We will be 100% behind the GP1 Grand Prix Hydroplane Race Team and the rest of the Australian teams as they defend the E.C. Griffith Cup at Yarrawonga on April 17-19; against the might of Lupton Racing Harro will have his work cut out for him, but as the man who brought the coveted title back to Australia, and a 9-time Griffith Cup Champion, he has the credentials, promising for an epic battle on the waters of Lake Mulwala 🇦🇺🇳🇿🏆 Yarrawonga Powerboat Spectacular

It might not be a round of the Lucas Oil Australia HydroplaneNDC, but we'll all be cheering on reigning NDC Champion Grant Harrison as the mighty GP1 Grand Prix Hydroplane Race Team take on the reigning HRL and NZ Champion Ken Lupton Racing in what will be a battle for the ages as both fight for the legendary E.C. Griffith Cup at Yarrawonga come April 17-19 - you won't want to miss this one..!! 🇦🇺🇳🇿🏆 Yarrawonga Powerboat Spectacular
