GUNTERSVILLE-Alabama is known for fast cars and famous race tracks. What about fast boats and famous water? Lake Guntersville invites you to an extreme summer event where you can watch the fastest boats today, race four and five wide on an oval course at speeds of 200 mph. Two days of competitive racing as drivers volley to take home the APBA Gold Cup title for the first time ever in Alabama. This tradition dates back to the 1940s and is definitely one for your bucket list.
The 2022 Guntersville Lake HydroFest will be celebrating the 60th Anniversary of Roy Duby’s World Speed Record of 200.419 MPH. It’s a record that still stands today for the piston powered boats. We will have several classes of boats competing this year including H1 Unlimiteds, Grand Prix Americas and Pro Lites 5 Litres. The Miss U.S. U-36 will even be making an appearance on Lake Guntersville.
