It's pretty good. I do find the sail boat sitting in the background to be pretty distracting from the image of the race boat though.

I think it's too centered. Since the sky is sort of blah, I'd try this framing:

I agree with Frank. I'd also like to see more of the wake left by the motor - so zoomed out a bit, and more of a pano-looking shot cropping off the top/bottom. The wake would give it more of an in-motion look than it has with it cut out. Either that or longer exposure pan to really motion blur things out.

I agree with the sail boat being a distraction. (PS opportunity?) Other than that, great shot.

I'd photoshop out the boats in the back. They are too distracting. And maybe mimic a pan technique like making the water blurry in the right to left direction. those changes would put more emphasis on the speedboat
