Haha doubt it. The way the world is going it'll be scrapped for an electric boat in 10 years. We're killing the planet apparently 🤷🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

I miss living in Lake Havasu, and this is just one of the many treasures you'll find there. Beautiful boat on a great lake.

I'm not a boat guy but I am an engine and engineering guy and holy cow this thing is just insane. Love it and hearing it go is a privilege. Seeing the end of the video with what I believe is an ICE engine in comparison with it was just smashing. Church music the whole thing. My hat's off to the owner for having the muscle to get this done in all the ways they have. Just ace. :-)

I was a groomsman in the wedding of the daughter of one of the people involved in the reassembly of the London bridge that took place under the bridge on the one side back in 1980. Seeing that lake again brings back memories. What an amazing boat. How fast can it go on that smooth water?

Beautiful work of art thank you for sharing , appreciate the drag race towards the end that piston driven motor gave it hell Thanks for sharing

I built the original tunnel hull Kudu while working for Ron Jones back in the 70's. I am 77 now and so magic to see what you guys are doing today.

Remarkably stable at those high speeds

Unbelievable! Such an insane build! Simply amazing

I live in havasu, I’ve seen sum crazy boats, but this one is on another level! Very awesome sir!

I’m getting mad 80’s Miami vice Crockett and tubs vibes 😍

This guy definitely won the toy envy race. A super boat and matching helicopter? Unreal.

Stunning boat.. I used to ski years back with a small boat with a Mercury 75 fitted, & that was quick enough! That rooster tail probably means skiing is out😄

Hello from Yorkshire in the UK. As a engineer and all round petrol head I think I may develop a taste for JET A1 🤙🏼😛 What a absolute work of art ! Awesome video too, I must say a did swear out loud at the end with the two boats side by side in the shot !! Super charged V8’s sound like a orchestra to my ears !

That's a badass boat 3000hp I'm a gear head and I love going fast

I've seen this before in Havasu and it's a Beast 😁 so Badass.

Hell yea man, grew up drag racing watching too fuelers and I spent almost every holiday weekend at the lake of the ozarks growing up I always loved these crazy fast boats. I remember when Qatar took there twin turbine 244mph at the ozarks. So cool y'all I love and respect the attention to detail and you can have riders so comfortable in padded race seats. Very very cool super boat sorry I'm not sure what you call something so show quality yet plenty of seats and such power. Maybe someday I can see one up close and get some pics.

Beautiful Boat!

So much for sight seeing, hold on little buddy. What a piece of workmanship.

Awesome skater. Would love to see it in person at loz.

How did you get them to not destroy them lower units not being surface drives

Amazing and crazy all at the same time.

I was on a 46 skater 160 mp. That was back in 2006. It hard for people to understand how fast that feels on that water. Amazing how quickly speds are getting faster since the early 80s fast offshore in those days was in the 80s.

These are works of art. I and male members of my family gravitate towards Drag boats, some of which have turbines but most have BIG turbo GMBB based engine designs. But these boats are like fine music solidified into metal and carbon fiber.....

WoW ! I did not think anyone would try to emulate the Skater twin turbine Howard Arneson did 25 years ago. Well done. He also invented the "Arneson surface drive" Much more efficiant way or propulsion IMHO. Arneson also set the speed record for the "Missippi river challenge" from New orleans to St Lois in river traffic and beat his transportation vehicle by 10-hourse (it left the night before) and that was in his original single turbine engine w/Arneson surface drive in a 35' cat

What kind of clutch system do they have to be able to engage a prop at that kind of engine RPM?
