That Nor-Tech is amazing. I can attest as I got to ride in it for a story in Powerboat a couple of years ago. One of a kind, that's for sure.

there are several videos of them running. take a look at them on Youtube. Notice the wake it leaves. How long and wide, especially compared to when it's running next to another say 35-40'.
