    awesome boat never the less, but by the time he got his boat off the trailer in the water and running, i could have been already 4 to 5 beers in, a good cool off dip, and already beached at my destination for about an hour.

      Exactly. Im not a boater but the way the hoist moved completely over the slip/ water, why didn't they put it in facing out? He could of just pulled forward

      The uploader mentioned the turbines make 1850hp. From what I understand, Mercury Racing does not make a drive that can handle that much power. So I would think this boat is fitted with shaft drives, probably #10 Arnesons.

    Way to large of a CO2 footprint I don’t think this could ever be liberal/progressive approved. But not being one of those morons I say wow what a machine. I can only imagine how much fun it would be to ride in.

      @@hv9356 Just saw that one looks really good. I love Randy's huge 55 but I would make some changes from what I see there. One would be widen the cockpit to about 11'6" to have doors into the bow.
      I like the driver/throttleman race helm with 2 seats outboard behind the helm seats and four or five in the rear.
      Of course turbines and Arnesons are the best propulsion for a 20,000lb. boat with an electric harbor drive to save fuel and cut down noise.
