I like the "high speed fly by" part. What was he doing, maybe 60? Just sends shivers up my spine. OK, maybe not.

Here's a longer vid of this 140mph turbine jet boat. Baddest raceboat on the Whitewater circuit. Gives me goosebumps watching it;

Turn your volume up and you can hear the turbine whooshing.

Yeah, I caught that too! Still a cool project but he should be spinning a prop and running over 100. That boat can do it safely if set up right.

Cool video! Thanks for sharing CAT.

Obviously its not the ideal set up but at least he DID something, instead of just talking about it like some people.

The video would be much improved by just taking out the writing portion of the "high speed fly by!" If I would have never read that i would have been much more impressed.
