OCRDA Nationals Round 1

The 2026 OCRDA National Championship got underway in Torquay this weekend, and we’re delighted to congratulate Rory on an outstanding performance, taking 1st place in all four races.

To come away from the opening round with a clean sweep is an incredible achievement and a fantastic way to start the season.

At NWS Marine, we’re proud to have supplied the jet ski behind the result.

A weekend to remember

Anyone involved in jet ski racing knows there’s a huge amount of preparation that goes into a race weekend. From the initial build and setup to ongoing maintenance and support, every detail matters when you’re competing at this level.

That’s why it was so rewarding to see the ski perform exactly as it should throughout the weekend, allowing Rory to focus on what he does best.

The results speak for themselves:

Race 1 – 1st place

Race 2 – 1st place

Race 3 – 1st place

Race 4 – 1st place

Four races. Four wins.

Built for performance

At NWS Marine, we work with riders who demand reliability, performance and confidence from their machines.

Whether its routine servicing, performance upgrades, diagnostics or complete race builds, our goal is always the same, to provide customers with a jet ski they can trust on the water.

Seeing one of our supplied and prepared skis take four victories at the opening round of a national championship is something we’re extremely proud of.

The Season Has Only Just Begun

While it’s been a brilliant start, there’s still a long championship ahead.

The OCRDA National Championship continues with:

June 19th-21st | Cardiff | Round 2
July 24th-2th | West Bay | Round 3
August 14th-16th | Caernarfon | Round 4
September 18th-20th | Ireland | Round 5
October 16th-18th | Cardiff | Round 6

We’ll be following Rory’s progress closely and look forward to seeing how the rest of the season unfolds.

  I needed a really quick fix on an outboard for my sailing boat, and as usual Nic was on it straight away, extremely helpful and knowledgeable, and a good guy. Highly recommend. Thanks Nic.

  I have visited Nick at NWS Marine numerous times over the last 3 years. Every occasion I have visited NWS nothing has been too much for Nick. His knowledge of anything that floats especially jet skis is second to none. Everything is explained in detail, nothing is ever too much. It’s not just skis or boats Nick can assist with, he supplied & set up a Custom SBS Jet Ski trailer for me, ensuring I was completely happy with everything. Whether it’s jet skis, boats or trailers, you’re in safe hands with NWS.

  Very pleased with the initial service on my Yamaha FT8GEPL. Nick was flexible on timing so I was able to drop the engine off mid morning,  and collect it mid afternoon on my way home.

  NWS have prepared my skis for the last two years - communication & service 10/10! Highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a Jetksi / find a service centre. Nick is highly knowledgeable on all products making sure your ski is fully prepared.

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend NWS Marine! I went to see Nik at the beginning of this year for information on a Yamaha jet ski, he gave me a great quote and really looked after me throughout the process. Although I didn’t end up purchasing a new ski from him, I bought a second-hand one elsewhere, and Nik has still been amazing. He serviced my ski, provides top-class support, and is always happy to share his knowledge and advice. Really genuine and helpful guy. I’ll definitely be going back,
