it doesn’t have 1650s and won’t go 180. Factory billet is the fastest outerlimits right now I’d guess.

All this talk of kilos, records, who's boats are better..... If this keeps up, I can see Baron Von Schwartz coming out of exile/retirement and taking a few people to school, unless a fistacuffs break out over appetizers in the pits....

The worlds fastest boat almost 40 years ago . it makes 200 mph look slow

The official world water speed record is 275.97 knots (511.09 km./h, or 317.58 mph) by Ken Warby in the unlimited-class jet-powered hydroplane Spirit of Australia onBlowering Dam Lake, New South Wales, Australia, on 8 October 1978.

The Ken Warby story is simply amazing how he built that boat in his backyard and powered it with an old jet engine.
He has a new one in testing at the moment and his son is hoping to up the record. I think it's insane but it's in his blood and it's what they love to do. Hope he can safely achieve his goals.

And drag boats regularly hit 270 mph but this record attempt is for an offshore vee.

Bad Ass TA WS6

There's a Ken Warby documentary on his story/record. Incredible, the term "balls of steal" doesn't do him justice

Maybe at this exact moment, but about 8 hours worth of work the 1650’s could be back in and swap drives (not sure if they swapped ratio before or after the run).
So if you want to go by that logic billy boats from Long Island has the fastest fountain I think.
