That's a testament to MTIs ability to get back to land. How it didn't sink is amazing. Glad they are safe

Joey was Throttling I believe... On Facebook it says they hit the bouy due to foggy conditions.... Running 150 in the fog isn't cool....

Here's a direct link to a story with a bit of detail including quotes from Mr. Hayim, http://speedonthewater.com/in-the-ne...record-attempt.

Holy Crap!

Glad everyone is ok and it is a miracle that they did not sink the boat. A real testament to MTI that the rest of the boat was solid enough after an accident like that!

Did it come in on its own power or was it towed?
