Check out the boat that takes off in the beginning, it is a hydrostram Venom. I just bought one and watching this really makes me want to go get it and take it for a ride.

I have seen that video before on Scream and Fly its awsome! I have a 85 V-King yt that I use as my little lake rocket. The sad thing is that in flat water conditions it is about 20mph faster than my 35' Cig Cafe Racer with twin 500hp's. Of course I have it way over powered (2.5 drag 280hp). What really sucks is I only have about 15k invested in the Hydrostream and a couple hundred grand in the Cig. Just goes to show you that you dont need alot of money if you want to go fast on the water!

Cool :cool: , I used to work at A Hydro Stream Dealer way back in the late 80's-earlier 90's. Marine Specialties Bladensburg Maryland. They are no longer in buisness but they had a Hydrostream set up that would do 104mph. Everything was balanced perfectly however on one occassion (saw picture) the boat began to blow over and the driver had to shift the weight by jumping on the bow!!! :eek:

There is a guy on Scream and Fly that was going to try to hit 130 in his boat today. I happened to be sitting in a restaurant on Hwy 92 and saw him headed for the river. I don't know if he hit it or not.

I just checked, he didn't make 130.

Actually, the boat ran very well, and did'nt take to long to hit top speed. I also ran the same 30's that run 123 on calm water, and today they'd only pull 118.5. The 32's I tried ran over 124 every pass, but then just stopped pulling. Anyway, It only ran 124.4 mph at 8200 rpm. I'll try again sometime when the waters better. Sure was fun though.

My Hydrostream will run 101mph in about 1" of chop but if you dont know what your doing and try to use the trim as a "go fast" button it will launch you straight up in the air and almost blow over (I learned the hard way). I will say though there is nothing like getting that thing up on the pad and letting her fly!
