Meet 'The Girlfriend' the V8 Superboat

Introducing The Girlfriend V8 Superboat Team, led by the formidable driver Brendan Doyle.


Hailing from Balranald in New South Wales, Brendan is a seasoned competitor in the 400 Class of the Australian V8 Superboats Championship.

Alongside his navigator, Holly Small, the team has demonstrated exceptional skill and determination on the water.

In 2022, the team clinched the Australian 400 Class Championship, earning the coveted Australian Champion title. This achievement is a testament to the team's dedication and relentless pursuit of excellence.

This January, Brendan and his team are set to make waves on the international stage, proudly representing Australia in the Group A Class at the UIM World Jetsprint Championships in New Zealand.

With a brand-new Pulse hull, custom-built to their specifications, they're ready to launch the new Girlfriend and take on the world's best.

Stay tuned for updates as they compete against the best at this month’s championship.
