I swear to God, nothing brings out jealousy in a guy more than a big, performance boat. Even a Lingenfelter 'Vette wouldn't make people this crazy. I don't blame you guys, I'm also envious of offshore boats. Only difference is, I've got the balls to admit it.
This is a world-class video. The scenery is beautiful, the boat is gorgeous, and the videography is fantastic. Why don't guys just admit it when they are jealous? Why make stupid-boy comments against the driver/navigator? If you are jealous or envious, just man-up and admit it. It's no big deal, you're jealous, I don't blame ya'.
Here's an idea: Instead of spending more $ on fast boats, helicopter rentals, designer sunglasses, and Big Macs, how about forking over for a decent video camera to replace the one this was shot with, which appears to be a 1985 VHS Camcorder? Hard to tell which pixel was the boat at times.
For all the hateful commenters- When will YOU ever get a chance to ride in one of these magnificient machines, if you were not Bill Gates?? Never is the answer. This gentleman has taken the time to film and let us little people go along for the ride, FOR FREE. Show some Damn Respect, or piss off....AMEN
That boat is awesome. I have a good friend that is a outdrive specialist and been crew chief for several teams. He worked for years with fountain and built the engines for on of the world record v bottoms before he went to a cat team. I was lucky enough to get to ride and help him test run a few and this video is awesome ,but the feeling inside that canopy is unlike anything else! scary fun!!!
200 mph = yeah right, and I just saw a orange leprechaun riding a unicorn lol! On another note its a cool boat to say the least but we wanna hear the engines, not some crap music covering the engines.
I love that paint job! As a blue collar guy who does not live anywhere near powerboats, If a guy had the money, what kind of price range would it be to buy a boat like that, and trailer (and three blonde bimbos) to accompany me ever time I took it out? Great Video and Great boat builders. RESPECT. RH DSD
Any chance of a version with the music at a lower volume - I'd like to hear what those amazing engines sound like. Yes it's outrageous and fun and a bit camp ... but I agree that it's a damn good laugh. Great vid.
Although I could never afford a boat like this I'm glad there's still someone out there who can. It's a privilege just to sit back and watch her tearing the sea apart.
I love watching the videos of the boats in action.I would love to hear them to instead of the totally unnecessary music. Most of the music is bloody awful, why dont you people ever learn, enthusiasts want the sound and the sight, the music takes away any pleasure of watching the video.
Love surface drive rooster tails. Nice boat, not sure how competitive team is but looks and runs great. A lot of sour grapes on here. Offshore racing always has been a wealthy man's sport. You would cut your hand on those props w/o gloves.
You must have some fun with this machine. We just don't get boats like this in New Zealand they would be awesome to see them in full flight. Fastest boats here about 120mph.
That's exactly why you won't see a helicopter shot of the boat doing 200mph... I have a video of one doing close to 200mph shot from a hell... the boat leaves it in the dust and give you an idea of the speed th-cam.com/video/a4dy_yEBIU4/w-d-xo.html
+rnordquest So, because they didn't cruise at 200mph in this video, you don't believe that it can go that fast? No one can see you so there's no reason to believe you exist either.
+rnordquest But it does get the views ! I kind of knew when I saw the title . Just to confirm it , I checked this out . Not subbing to this guy that's for sure .
Agreed this video sucks, what is awesome though is them trying to look all Bad like tough guys with their High Dollar Gold Watches. Their propellers cost more than an average home in America, and YET....... they are too cheap to put a locking differential or Four wheel drive in their Silly Douche Canoe of a truck.
I just love money and all the happiness it can buy. These guys are most definitely happy and money bought it. This has got to feel better than sex, or drugs.
When any member of the pod takes it upon themselves to ride anything over the water at 200 mph earns my waterman wings. Land lubbers don't have a clue how something doing 200 mph screws up, these guy would be the first to witness what happens. Given them a little respect. I got a ride on the USS Scorpion which was playing in a part of the world we never were able to so deeply penetrate and know so little about. Watermen deserve respect.
That is one awesome piece of machinery and throws up a really good rooster tail... enjoyed the video The only thing I do not like --- is I am not sitting in the cockpit ;( Good luck and wish you all the best.
What was the song at the start of video? Cool boat. Still, I think I'd have to go with one of Bob Leach's Eliminators...the Speedster 36. Why go 200MPH when you can scare yourself plenty at 180? And for less money.
So top end is approx. 180 kts in this sucker eh? Is that in pretty much most conditions or do the conditions have to be optimal? I.E. water's like glass? Also, what would the cruising range of this beast be?
when u have the money to build one of these how much it costs to run it and maintain it doesnt matter- freakin awsome video... freakin awsome boat.. very impressive !!!
great vid dude. not sure why how people can get into a fight over something like boat racing. btw, came from a family of four living on a tarten 37 sloop back in the 80s. lived my first 20 years on that boat. sailed it from San Fran. to Cabo and up the sea of cortez for 2 years by the time I was 14. raced flying dutchmens, hobie cats and fireballs til my 20's. now Im on land doin jeeps. got some gopro vids of us jeepin in baja on my page. great vid, dont let the haters hate!
Fabulous boat, amazing scenery, too bad the music killed it IMHO. Someone went to a lot of effort to do this but I would have liked to hear the engines.
Therealdeal I'mwrongbut ,,They have speed plains above each propeller that are controlled by hydraulics plus the twin hull design forces the boat down at speed.
Hey...thanks for the really awesome video...well, from 39 seconds on. Hahahaha...Just kidding! Can't believe how old this vid is, and it's still freaking good.
I swear to God, nothing brings out jealousy in a guy more than a big, performance boat. Even a Lingenfelter 'Vette wouldn't make people this crazy. I don't blame you guys, I'm also envious of offshore boats. Only difference is, I've got the balls to admit it.

botulism Damn I agree with you
I agree, 240P Really.
Thanks , Mike
and that is not all... Why drown the great turbine sound with pointless crap music ???????
@Doctor Dagger The first consumer HD camcorders were released in the early 2ks and TH-cam added 720p support the same month this video was published.
For all the hateful commenters- When will YOU ever get a chance to ride in one of these magnificient machines, if you were not Bill Gates?? Never is the answer. This gentleman has taken the time to film and let us little people go along for the ride, FOR FREE. Show some Damn Respect, or piss off....AMEN
Not sure that I'm aloa log for the ride as I'm still here on my toilet and the only rush I'm getting is the shit to the toilet bowl...just saying
That boat is awesome. I have a good friend that is a outdrive specialist and been crew chief for several teams.

TURN OFF THE NOISE [music?] So we can hear the BOAT!
Can't here the boat
We wanna hear the boat not music!!!! Nice catamaran tho.
200 mph = yeah right, and I just saw a orange leprechaun riding a unicorn lol! On another note its a cool boat to say the least but we wanna hear the engines, not some crap music covering the engines.
The quality of the molds for this boat are incredibly perfect!
Love the music and the boat. Please whats the last song on the video,what group? PLEASE!
Did you ever think we all would rather here the motor and not the music???
Nice! Would of been nice to hear the sound it makes, but nevertheless, powerful boat!
NIIIICE!!!!........I WEAR GLOVES AND A GOLD WATCH WHEN I PUT ON MY PROP TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is nothing better than the feeling of nothing in the water but prop and skeg while the boat dances on the water!!!!
I love that paint job! As a blue collar guy who does not live anywhere near powerboats, If a guy had the money, what kind of price range would it be to buy a boat like that, and trailer (and three blonde bimbos) to accompany me ever time I took it out? Great Video and Great boat builders. RESPECT. RH DSD
i wish i could hear the engines, and i kept waiting for speed runs instead of slow mo of a 200 mph boat. does not make sense.
Posting it don't make sense either. Space could have been better used ... maybe a vid of rain running down a window... or paint drying
Screw the music, let's hear the thing.
Any chance of a version with the music at a lower volume - I'd like to hear what those amazing engines sound like. Yes it's outrageous and fun and a bit camp ... but I agree that it's a damn good laugh. Great vid.
9 packaging l9 on monophonic I
StonyRC cg
What is outrageous is the damage that these machines do to nature.
Ooooooooooooh, nature! Save the whales, dude.
StonyRC yes, i think fuck sound, we need hearing engine sound
Although I could never afford a boat like this I'm glad there's still someone out there who can. It's a privilege just to sit back and watch her tearing the sea apart.
Beautiful boat and graphics.
Would love to hear more of the boat and not so much of the music.
I love watching the videos of the boats in action.I would love to hear them to instead of the totally unnecessary music. Most of the music is bloody awful, why dont you people ever learn, enthusiasts want the sound and the sight, the music takes away any pleasure of watching the video.
Would suggest to can the music and hear the boat itself.
Great video. incredible build as well. but best around at 360 res?
Is that long island sound/mouth of CT river?
Yes, they should screw that music and let heard the engine music !
02:53 we transition from the light porn music to the dramatic score.
smoothly as a train wreck
what's with the gay adventure movie music? I want to hear that shit run
Love surface drive rooster tails. Nice boat, not sure how competitive team is but looks and runs great. A lot of sour grapes on here. Offshore racing always has been a wealthy man's sport. You would cut your hand on those props w/o gloves.
Interesting views of the propellers: super-cavitating props...are they designed as surface piercing?
Turbine boat and we don't even get to hear the engines? *sigh*
nice glasses man do they make them for men ??
MrCrowart. No.
MrCrowart are you asking for your boyfriend??
MrCrowart haha
would rather hear the engine than that music
That's Bad ASS!!! Keep it up,,no haters here,,just admirers.
You must have some fun with this machine. We just don't get boats like this in New Zealand they would be awesome to see them in full flight. Fastest boats here about 120mph.
Why drown the great turbine sound with pointless crap music ??????????
Fast as it is, just imagine the millions of dead zooplankton it leaves in its wake.
Zooplankton play a vital role in all aquatic ecosystems. Educate yourself, kid.
Naiveté..
Nope,i just don't jump on the "oh on the world gonna end wagon"
Troll on...
Can't wait to ride my SeaDoo this weekend. I'll be doing doughnuts in your honor Muzzly. spongebob.wikia.com/wiki/File:Dead_Eye_Plankton_BK.jpg
another vid ruined with corny music
Very nice job on the graphics.. what kind of powerplant/s does it have though?
shades2 ,Its a twin turbine. Helicopter motors. they run on J-2 or Diesel.
where is the rod holders @ where do you put the crab nets.. so what is with the 007 music..
a boat worth more than my house and not a single fuckin rod holder. useless.
I never saw it go faster than the helicopter and that helicopter can't do 200.
That's exactly why you won't see a helicopter shot of the boat doing 200mph... I have a video of one doing close to 200mph shot from a hell... the boat leaves it in the dust and give you an idea of the speed th-cam.com/video/a4dy_yEBIU4/w-d-xo.html
+rnordquest So, because they didn't cruise at 200mph in this video, you don't believe that it can go that fast? No one can see you so there's no reason to believe you exist either.
+npsit1 All I'm saying is I know what the top speed of that helicopter is and it's under 200mph.
+alvinski100 Nice!
+rnordquest But it does get the views ! I kind of knew when I saw the title . Just to confirm it , I checked this out . Not subbing to this guy that's for sure .

Impressive boat and nice scenery too.
I just love money and all the happiness it can buy. These guys are most definitely happy and money bought it. This has got to feel better than sex, or drugs.
that intro was ssssssuper gay
UPstater5.9 Not as gay as the white Oakley's
Question: How many gallons per mile?
When any member of the pod takes it upon themselves to ride anything over the water at 200 mph earns my waterman wings. Land lubbers don't have a clue how something doing 200 mph screws up, these guy would be the first to witness what happens. Given them a little respect. I got a ride on the USS Scorpion which was playing in a part of the world we never were able to so deeply penetrate and know so little about. Watermen deserve respect.
FANTASTIC - I WANT ONE ! Now, if I could just win the Lotto....
Do they do a fishing version?
good music, love it. good luck out there
That is one awesome piece of machinery and throws up a really good rooster tail... enjoyed the video
The only thing I do not like --- is I am not sitting in the cockpit ;( Good luck and wish you all the best.
where do you put the fishing rods
How fast you want to go? How much money you got?
Great video, love the music. Very dangerous boat, but fun.
Is it good for water skiing ?
What was the song at the start of video? Cool boat. Still, I think I'd have to go with one of Bob Leach's Eliminators...the Speedster 36.
Why go 200MPH when you can scare yourself plenty at 180? And for less money.
what are you running for power plants? GE 700 series?
Dose any one know what amount of pressure the props. encounter at the speeds these boats travel. I would like ta know,
I would like to know how many miles such a boat can travel on a full tank of fuel - as per whatever the boat holds in gallons.
That truly was amazing. Dang good job on the video. Shot from all different angles. Incredible job guys. ;)
What the brand of those gloves, I love em!
So top end is approx. 180 kts in this sucker eh? Is that in pretty much most conditions or do the conditions have to be optimal? I.E. water's like glass? Also, what would the cruising range of this beast be?
Do you have any video updates of this boat at full throttle,
when u have the money to build one of these how much it costs to run it and maintain it doesnt matter- freakin awsome video... freakin awsome boat.. very impressive !!!
Built for one? Or two in the cabin?
Oh Yeah!
WOW COOL LOOKING SPEED BOAT,AND ITS FAST AS HELL THUMBS UP,LOVE THE TURBINE POWER.
One of the funniest starts to a vid I have ever seen, in their minds they are the coolest 40 year olds in the world...............
Those are the coolest guys they think I've ever seen.
Where can i buy boat like this?
great vid dude. not sure why how people can get into a fight over something like boat racing. btw, came from a family of four living on a tarten 37 sloop back in the 80s. lived my first 20 years on that boat. sailed it from San Fran. to Cabo and up the sea of cortez for 2 years by the time I was 14. raced flying dutchmens, hobie cats and fireballs til my 20's. now Im on land doin jeeps. got some gopro vids of us jeepin in baja on my page. great vid, dont let the haters hate!
are those props like airfoils?
On my bucket list to ride on one !
Those five-blade props are beautiful...
Biscayne Bay?
Fabulous boat, amazing scenery, too bad the music killed it IMHO. Someone went to a lot of effort to do this but I would have liked to hear the engines.
Beautifully done!
wow- just wow- crossing your arms is so bad ass.
I think she's a beauty and runs nice and smooth over the swells and wakes.
How many staterooms?
Its a double turbine engine , 2008 Mystic from Geico Racing did a 210 mph record whit it.
Superbe vidéo et musique de fond !
was this a music video?
The editing, music, and "cool dude posing" sure were outrageous. The boat was pretty cool though
Proud to say this guy is from Wisconsin! You can see his shop at 6188 County M, Winneconne, WI.
I just saw the new owner run this boat run a few weeks ago at Lake Havasu. Bad ass boat for sure.
The photography was really good, the added audio was really bad. I'm glad I watched it . . . once.
What are they trolling for ?
Where do the fishing poles go?
sweet boat, nice video, thanks.
There would not be 524 dislikes here if we could hear the roar of the engines rather than some high school band having a practice session.
Great Music!!!
nice video,awesome boat,wwe also did like to hear the sound of those engines
whats up with the 1 wheel peel in the truck...
how does a boat like that stay down at 150+ mph without any down force that I can see? is it that subtle or am I missing something else?
Therealdeal I'mwrongbut ,,They have speed plains above each propeller that are controlled by hydraulics plus the twin hull design forces the boat down at speed.
What is the last song in the video?
what is that last metal song i like it.....
There's nothing quite like gas-turbine power!
Do you burn jet-A,or diesel fuel in those engines? Thank you!
what kind of prop. is that? someone answer me please.
***** I got it... its a mercury racing l1 prop
***** yeah basically
CranioUomo cleavers
CranioUomo expensive ones.....
Hey...thanks for the really awesome video...well, from 39 seconds on. Hahahaha...Just kidding! Can't believe how old this vid is, and it's still freaking good.
