Wetwheels Launch at the Southampton Boatshow
[10 Oct 2011] When disabled yachtsman Geoff Holt MBE first started looking for a new powerboat to fulfil his need for speed he decided there was only one boat up to the job. Four months later and Geoff's brand new 9m Cheetah, fittingly named Wetwheels, has made a hugely successful debut at the PSP Southampton Boatshow. Wetwheels is the UK's first disabled charter powerboat which Geoff can skipper solely from his wheelchair.
