Running to set a speed record having to dodge fisherman and jet skis at 180?

Where can I sign up? No way a jet skier should get away this time...

After watching the video with the Merc turbos I think it's safe to say Fountain can still claim the record for the loudest kilo.

Congrat's to all envolved with OL setting a New Speed Record. Now for the Bad News, tomorrow you may have new restrictions placed on your boat.

Well done to all involved.

Mike and Joe glad this didn't have to last as long as the Around Long Island record Joe and Joe C set.

Be safe and move that number up a bit.

I said while testing. It was a clear path, although it was not perfect water conditions nor perfect wind conditions.
