Summary
Pathe synopsis: But for Bronco-bucking thrills and spills you need horsepower not horses and out-board motorboats on waterways. The London Motorboat Racing Club at Woodlands Lake, Iver, Buckinghamshire put on a dare-devil display in fibre-glass craft that skim the water at 60 miles an hour like jet aircraft a the moment of take-off.
