Powerboat P1 Management Ltd (P1) was established in Dec 2002 and is wholly owned by P1 Holdings Limited. P1 is the global rights holder for the P1 SuperStock, P1 RIBs and P1 AquaX racing series. P1 has created a marine racing platform combining the key pillars of accessibility of entry, parity of performance and affordability across a variety of watercraft to ensure offshore Powerboat racing remains future proofed for racers, teams and commercial partners alike.

P1 currently operates and promotes the following marine racing series at a national level:

  • P1 SuperStock 250 (one-design mono-hull race boats) – UK, USA, UAE
  • P1 SuperStock 150 (one-design mono-hull race boats) – UK

P1 also commissioned the design, development and manufacture of a high-tech, one-design race and leisure boat. The P1 Panther 28-SS forms the backbone of the P1 SuperStock racing series and the national franchises, which it looks to sell to commercial partners globally.
