However it later transpired that Trask's hiring had been misreported and that Gillman was in fact moving Marit Strømøy and Mike Szymura from the EMIC Racing Team, which would close for 2017, into his Emirates Racing outfit. Gillman's existing Emirates Racing team had initially appeared to sign Australian Grant Trask who had impressed in his two outings at the end of 2016, and was slated to be replacing Swedish driver Erik Stark. Shaun Torrente was retained and paired with Ahmed Al Hameli. There had been doubt since the end of 2016 about the outfit's participation for the following season until Gillman was unveiled as the new team manager a month prior to the first race of the year in Portugal. The biggest change prior to the 2017 season getting underway was Scott Gillman's takeover of the management of the Victory Team.

An initial seven race calendar was released at the end of January, with the championship scheduled to begin in Portimão, Portugal on 23 April and conclude in Sharjah, UAE on 15 December. The 2017 UIM F1 H 2O World Championship was the 34th season of Formula 1 Powerboat racing.
