Some one added a lot of blue to the picture or a blue filter on the camera

If that photo is as it appears, taken parallel to the plane of the boats angle of attack there should be an horizon in the background, Unless that, that appears as a sunami wave in the background is real..I vote it is a phony..

Of course there is the option that the photo was taken by a surfer zooming down the Banzi Pipeline..

I believe:

a. the photo is real....and

b. the boat in the picture is actually 24 inches long.

I am pretty sure it's real shot in Australia.

I recall seeing a racing movie from down-under with the Carr brothers just before they were killed in 1970. A couple of minutes of offshore racing, and suddenly, big cruise ship appears in the picture and then disappears! They got some fargin' waves down there!
