High-speed water racing thrills at the Havasu 300
Feel the roar of performance boats as they race for the Havasu 300—best enjoyed from shoreline viewpoints and nearby parks.
Event details
Pure speed and thundering engines define the Mark Hahn Memorial Havasu 300, when race boats tear across Lake Havasu’s open water in a high-stakes competition that honors a local racing legend. You’ll feel the rumble as boats hit top speeds on straightaways, watch teams navigate tight turns near the London Bridge, and see skilled drivers push their limits lap after lap. The race typically runs in late spring, with multiple classes competing throughout the day.
Shoreline viewing spots fill early, so arrive by mid-morning to claim your perch along the Bridgewater Channel or near the London Bridge for the best angles. Bring binoculars, sunscreen, and plenty of water since shade is limited along the racecourse. The action peaks in the afternoon when the fastest classes take to the water, but morning heats offer a good warmup and less crowded viewing conditions.
Extend your race weekend by booking a Lake.com rental with direct water views, where you can watch practice runs from your patio and enjoy easy access to waterfront breakfast spots before the official start. When the engines quiet down at sunset, the channel transforms into a calm evening scene perfect for paddleboarding or dining on lakeside patios.
