Awesome video A7 !The 1950s record holder is still impressive for lack of tech in that era!

Does Miss Geico have Cup holders? hmmmmm

Agreed Matt. My dad just said the same thing when I emailed that video to him. He was also impressed (as was I) that the 317 mph boat record still stands as the fastest in history....from the 1970's!....using wood & fiberglass from a backyard project & a $69 auctioned jet engine.

Maybe he and his boy will shatter that record again with the new technology available today. At some point I would think it would become an airplane that's just landing on the water driving around for a bit.

I imagine a similar design in composite frame and carbon fiber, with a more efficient and lighter power plant would break the record, but damn you'd have to be crazy to go that fast on water.
