Running on flat water isn't that interesting to watch unless they're drag boats. Get some footage of these offshore boats running in offshore conditions like 4-6 footers so we can see how each hull handles the waves differently -- that's what they're designed for and it would be totally cool.

Yes for sure they work better on rough water...This was Just a fund raiser for the Wish foundation...Will try to get Laurie to do the 1000 island and the great lakes next year with us. Still we had a great time and a kids wish came true !!! Winter is comming up here so this will have to do for now...

Trying running up a river that gets as narrow as 50 feet at times, now try running that three wide.

Rice lake and the Ontonabee River are exciting enough with the 1-2' footers that turn up on the river and narrowness of the river, it gets really rough in a hurry if your at the back.

Yes for those of you that can remember. i was the one who put my 42 footer in the swamp up on shore after taking the s bend by Benford bridge in 2008.. Floating log dislodged from shore from the wakes....You have to be on the ball on this river for sure..Took 1 out of the 3 out drives clear off my boat lost my steering at 80 mph...... Had to swim to recover the unit.. Grounded the boat so it wouldn't sink... lol
