The boat is being sold so no speed run. On the 16th of April there is a Vee bottom test by one of the Magazine's in Sarasota that is all that's happening I know of.

Who the heck cares - What's next t-53 Turbines in it. How about a real ocean run like our forefather "Don" did to the keys.
That fountain hull would be full of cracks if it did it. Has anyone seen an old Fountain? |

Their "adiabatic engines" supposedly had 3100 lbs of torque. Thats a hell of a lot more then a t53, and about 1.5x as much torque as a freakin T-55.
You are a smart man - read up about the paper cup http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=78116&page=1 |
Isn't this the engine that claims the harder you run it the cooler it gets? That seems to defy my limited knowledge of engines. Did they ever get them to run in the Fountian?
