Race Day at Australia’s CRAZIEST Tinny Race – The Riverland Dinghy Derby 2025 Was Everything You Expect And More!
If you have never seen these crazy dinghy races, then you are missing out on a level of nuts that really only makes sense to Australians. It should come as no surprise that the people who brought us Jet Sprint boat racing would also think that throwing two people in an aluminum dinghy with an outboard that makes way too much power for it, is a good idea. And then going through a seriously challenging course that is all about quick and nasty turns that try to throw both people out of the boat is clearly required. Oh and don’t forget that the “passenger” is throwing themselves around the boat in order to make the boat handle the way it needs to in order to be as fast as possible.
To be honest, it is kind of like those crazy bastards that ride on the sidecars of the motorcycles that race in the Isle of Man TT.
Watch and see.
