Here is a question for John Arruda. How is the durability of the BPM drive behind the tremendous power of the gas turbines?

Clearwater may have appeared that way, but when you have your engines go into Guardian mode your competition is sure to gain on you very quickly. Therefore it appeared Qatar had a huge advantage over MGR. That may not be the case.... After what I witnessed in Ocean City, I feel that if the engines can be kept out of Guardian mode in Key West, it will be anyone's race. MGR was very dialed in at Ocean City. How they kept it glued to the water while every other boat in the other races all were getting big air only meant one thing . MGR is really set up well and ready for Key West.

I was not in Clearwater so I do not know, only going by what I was told from a reliable source.
ECU's are set for 198 degrees and the engines were at 200 degrees.
Ocean temp was much cooler off the beach vs Clearwater .

Indeed! Both being Jersey Shore guys we know that two or three of these waves can merge together and push up a single 5 to 6 footer in the midst of the smaller ones. A real eye opener for most, but when you have a powerboat as fast as Miss Mary Mac happen upon one, then you're getting into air traffic lanes for Ocean City Municipal Airport! LOL!! Again, great shot!
