History Repetes Itself
 
Just imagine what classic racer Gar Wood, 1930's legend who build the "U-10 Miss America X", a 12 meter wood craft that was powered by 4 huge Packard 6 cylinder engines (1800 hp each) that went 124 mph in 1932, would say if he could see how technology has brought us Mr. Copeland's "Phenomenon", a 56' craft with 4 turbines (3600 hp each), speed Tbd!!

What can we all say but thank you to the legends of the past who have inspired us in the present to continue with our passion for breaking those speed barriers. 320 plus here we come.
