Speed record at about 3:20 on the vid

Best vid comment - "When you hear the fish are on the other side of the lake."

Pro tip... DON'T turn up the volume.

I thought this was going to be the video where the guy's boat disintegrates with him filming

Oldy but goody gif. Probably one of my favorites.

Also love this spoof of it...

I think it will be a while before wind turbines and electric batteries will beat that.

Was wondering about the steering torque at take-off but then saw the counter-rotating props in the vid.

A lot of hamsters to push those beasts to 230 plus mph in 3 seconds. ;)

Back in the day either Mercury or Johnson or somebody had a 10 horse and a 20 horse that pretty much looked alike. My dad's best friend put the 10 horse labels on his 20 horse to get around a local lake's restrictions and said people were constantly telling him "That is the runningest 10 horse I have ever seen!"
