Been on a sea doo that did 72mph on a flat calm lake. This is insane speeds for the water, it makes all sorts of diffrent splash noises when it gets over 100mph it's like skipping a rock across a lake.
145mph on a not exactly glass smooth surface, that takes some doing.... Would love to see a top speed run sometime.... Awesome boat mate! 👍🏻

It’s not an ocean boat, it’s a river boat. A 23 foot boat wouldn’t carry much and not much range with the fuel consumption- flat bottoms aren’t much for blue water. Container ships carry huge loads all the time and you can’t search them all. Not glamorous but much more effective. Those and the semi-subs.
Not many videos leave my jaw agape-this one has my jaw on the floor. What a machine.
