Battle of the Keys

In less than 30 days, the performance boating world will descend upon Key West for the World Championships. While there will be many teams racing for titles. No one race is more anticipated than Turbine Extreme, which will feature 3 boats. Team GEICO with a considerable amount of seat time could be the odds on favorite! But luck, could be on anyone's side. Regardless it will be quite the spectacle

Miss GEICO
There will be a fourth Turbine boat racing as well WARBIRD. (44 MTI )

Both the JBS and Aquamania boats are extremely fast and their crews know how to race. Pete, As you saw this weekend we (GEICO MTI) are severely impaired in heavy water by our boat length. Can't go fast if you can't keep it in the water. It's three days of racing all you can do is prepare to the best of your ability and race as hard as the equipment will let you without breaking it.

Good luck to all the teams

Marc
