He had one 50' that had 3 cobra motors and drives, the marina next to Rum Runners was doing an exibition on their new crane showing how they can pick up a boat over several other boats, well I guess the wind was blowing too hard and they dropped his brand new 50' on top a brand new 44' tempest, needless to say the crane sat there for 15+ years unused before it was turned into scrap metal.

I remember the 50' boss for sale back in '06. Named "fast fwd" i assume, all white with FF signs on the sides(<<)
It had triple Ford-Merlins, arneson drives, cool monster boat and was only 50 or 60k!

No Ideas? It was built in ‘93/’94 (?) in the States by Cougar. John Connors rigged it with triple 800hp CATs coupled to Arnesons. The boat set various records over the years, one of them was Miami – Nassau – Miami in ’98. Where is this boat now?

Possibly the perspective was bad so here are some more shots:
