I thought you'd like that. The shot is from a video that will be done in a few weeks.

Hers a few of 24' Superboats.
Ryan Beckley posted a few years back on Post #26, that the really high shot was of a purple Warlock and he was driving. EEEEEH!!!!
The boat is a 1981, 24' Superboat owned and driven by Jeff Gerardi of Freeze Frame Video. I built and raced the boat with him. I'm in the passanger seat. It was taken in the Fire Island Inlet, New York.
The other recent picture is of Gene Barabash's 24'

Any air shots from lake Meade OSS race? it did't look like it from the video... but I thought a cruiser may have crossed the course or something and I could have missed that split second.

That's some serious air. If I were to guess, it looks like your transom must be 6' out of the water, and I'm guessin the tip of the bow somewhere between 12-14'. What the hell did you launch off to get that?
Nice run!
