In line with the rule changes regarding the eligibility of new builds being allowed into the championship based on the same power-to-weight ratio as existing boats, Barry-Cotter will unveil and run his new Maritimo design in Dubai, with Tom Barry-Cotter and Pal Virik Nilsen, the 2008 Australian Superboat Champions, given a wild card entry to compete in the two final races of the season.
Barry-Cotter confirmed that the team will run their lighter 4100kg fibreglass-built hull with 790hp V8s in Dubai, with the team also running a 4800kg minimum weight hull in 2009 with V12s.
