I love watching these videos! Thank god there are people out there that run these boats on the edge so I can get the adrenaline rush without being in the boat! I have no desire to ride in a triple digit cat without being in control of it myself. With that being said....I love watching these videos!

Drop Star question what boat do you have? Have you raced cats or v hulls or a Dingy or sail boat as mentioned ? Know it all I guess??Change the name of the boat to murder machine with past show off moves that did not end well! Cheer leaders like you suck sweaty balls!

That was sad but If he had survived it he’d still be at it trying to brake his record.


Somebody else can post the video.
Mike didn’t die in the crash, he died from a surgery complication after the crash. Yes the injuries that required surgery were sustained in the crash, but didn’t exactly kill him.

It seems to me that this thread got off topic due to people coming out and judging how a boat owner chooses to operate his boat with a driver who is fully aware of what could go wrong, and chose to be part of the ride. No other boat traffic or liabilities in the area if something was to go bad.
who are we to make a judgment on a man using his equipment the way he wants to and not endangering innocent boaters?

I would be pretty upset if someone talked smack about me if If I was out running hard with just me and my son in the boat not endangering anyone. If i flip or stuff it my call...

Yves is probably a much more skilled driver then those critiquing his abilities... I'll take my boats to their limits but never with guest onboard, so if it goes south in a hurry (which it can) only I and my willing son will pay the consequence.

Let it go and enjoy your boats the way you feel comfortable and safe

I thought it was a great video, and the "operators" were cool as a cucumber!

Hold on now, two completely different situations going on there, and if you can't see that, then you may not know all that much about the topic,

Opinions are like A$$ h@les and everybodys got one , just another key board jockey hiding behind a computer . If you met Yves in a bar you'd be quite as a mouse and wouldn't say a word , play times over back downstairs for you in Moms basement and will bang on the food bowl when dinner is ready

You must be talking from what you see and think and not from experience. If you are I’M SORRY my bad. 😂. Regardless the ass hat behind the wheel of the fountain and yves in the skater are not even comparable. What’s actually funny though is I bet millions of viewers have laughed at those edited videos of that idiot…. Yet an experienced bro gets bashed for pushing his gear with one well aware passenger. Makes no sense!

This is turning into what seems like a dick measuring contest and evidently is a record cold winter. Lol 😂😂😂

I have enjoyed the video as well, I have played it a few times. I will probably never even be a passenger in a big fast cat, so I appreciate when someone takes the time to post a video. As far as how close it was to going poorly I have no clue therefore no opinion. To me it looked a bit sketchy a couple of times but again I have no experience.
Keep the videos coming! Thank you!
