Oh. I've got goosebumps.

[@peterm6199]

70 knots 👀 great trolling speed 😂 Amazing stuff!! 👍

[@BernhardEhm]

😂😂🤘purrfect

[@longstraightlines6747]

How clear were the sounder readings at that speed? 🤣

[@peterm6199]

You’d be lucky if the transducer was still connected. 😅

[@jono999s]

Class boat , went on whitepointer 800bhp fast 😮 the 450r look nice . My stabi 75 merc does me

[@davideyers9405]

130kmh, that's impressive. The bridge to bridge boy's are doing 215kmh, on flat water though, but it's mind blowing quick.

[@xe8573]

Cootacraft (think smaller) in Sydney no canopy same engines 80 knots as claimed by owner

[@roryderbyshire4630]

Holy shit. AWESOME mate

[@braveelhouli]

Wt a absolutely beast

[@DylanStalba-Smith-if7wb]

That is the best fishing boat ever💪💪💪

[@Muds1978]

What a boat 🤤🤤🤤

[@LabworksVapes]

Sign me up - this thing is a weapon......Tuna grounds in 5,4,3,2,1

[@somanysevens]

Yes mate, I 100% condone this kind of behavior

[@MISTERLeSkid]

FUN WITH (american) MATH: Looking at the instrument cluster, "cruising" at 54 knots burns ~80L/hr (PER engine!). When you open it up to get that last 10+ knots, the fuel burn DOUBLES to 160L/hr. Holy cow I think I could settle for a lazy 54 knot cruising speed lol. So I did some quick math and if both engines drink 320L / hr to maintain 64 knots or 74 mph, that means 74 mph divided by 84 US gallons = a whopping .87 mpg!

[@mattbass_strait6030]

Incredible speed 70ktns wow

[@YouFishTV]

It’s scarier than it looks

[@jaydenelliott1847]

That is absolutely how much

[@andrewstone4350]

fark yeah boys. fark yeah . YEWWW

[@mattylee6207]

I'll out fish ya in my 6m platey every day of the week. If ya can't fish and ya got a micro pens I guess at least it must be nice to say you've got the fastest boat

[@Davi.b]

Clearly the motors are to heavy for the boat. It shows on the water line.

[@crashalexander7232]

nah your just not accustomed to seeing this type of hull ....

[@robintaurima8257]

I gotta double up on the lotto tickets.. I want 1 of these... I'd give, my right kidney, a left testicle, and a eye of your choice for this machine....think about it.. Please 😂😂😂mad respect to the Russian. ❤️❤️❤️

[@jessledington5570]

Boys wanna come racing today?? Oh i mean fishing😂😂 only takes 3mins to get to fishing spot.!!

[@casagrandeearthworks5345]

100% shitting your pants? I would be

[@Massacheefa]

What’s the damage on one of those 500k aud? Haha

[@davemagpie]

A fishing boat? More suited to towing a skier, either they left the bung out over those motors are to heavy, it would be nightmare on anchor

[@fester.]

take my wallet🤩

[@sicktattoobro]

70mph is the fastest fishing boat in the world?.. ummm no. There's a Midnight Express 39S in Florida that does 100 mph

[@crashalexander7232]

70 knots is like 80 mph

[@gypana]

And that's 12 metres with 5 engines

[@epicoverfifty9745]

Why ? That's way to much weight in the transom and your never using that hp outside, at rest it looks unseaworthy.

[@crashalexander7232]

lol ...looks perfect to me and i have been building and rigging boats for 25 years

[@terrytytula]

I'd have to get a second mortgage on my house to pay for the fuel. I think I'll wait for electric motors to get large enough.

[@crashalexander7232]

please hold your breath until then ...please.....

[@gypana]

Don't worry you'll be paying more for electricity than fuel soon enough :P

[@AM-ni3sz]

Greta will not be happy about this.

[@turbostyler]

Mark builds a mean boat! That's one sexy looking fishing boat to boot!

[@romz90]

Lucky it wasn’t rough the Russians a maniac 🤣

[@chriswhite5820]

You can see those tabs at work, can't wait to see a few of those in SoCal heading to the islands at 70 knots.

[@superfishal]

Love it !! When are you picking the keys up?

[@Rexy888]

Wow❤

[@nasosnasos8054]

Price ?

[@crashalexander7232]

200k plus easy.....

[@brettknutsen6476]

Slower than i expected.

[@hopebear06]

Just popping out to our spot a hundred Kay's off the coast. Be back in a couple of hours.

[@LTZ_Z71]

900HP on a 28' boat seems excessive. I LOVE IT

[@blonddog8417]

Yeah now that's livin, who needs quads when all you need is this💙

[@donninguyen5237]

just a casual 50knot cruise

[@chefcamsey1375]

Nice

[@dannymilne4681]

Weapon of a boat.

[@TheHonro]

Jeez, i freak out doing 64knots on my boat.. couldnt imagine doin 70..

[@crashalexander7232]

yeah a whole 6 knots more ....blistering....

[@aryo122pilvar3]

Please buy it. love to see you have it , 50 knots cruising

[@YouFishTV]

It’s hard to comprehend

[@TheBoundlessNexus]

2:57, what flew off the boat?

[@YouFishTV]

A toupee

[@drdrft]

WOW. Awesome Job Mark! "The Boss" Very fitting name! 160ltrs/hr x 2.... 1 hr to shelf ... bottom bash.... 1 hr back... 600ltrs are gone but as U said "This is livin" F Yeah, Id dream for a quick 10min squirt? Maybe Mark & Melainie will let me come for a ride one day....im dreaming...lol

[@davidthompson4517]

That would be epic 70knts but i don't think id ever get to do that here on the west coast of NZ, be a dream day if ya could,

[@rodneygilham6687]

Insane seeing mark blast in from the shelf after a days tournament fishing. Something to behold 😅

[@simonbaj334]

Over 60 knots no insurance.......

[@shaunmatulovich6661]

Awesome rig but good luck getting insurance now

[@demisecphuket]

some kind of weird waterline at rest

[@josephpsmithe]

Two 500hp could fit on there too

[@craigkaschan4822]

Makes my old Quinny look like a dugout.

[@hardtimesify]

Burning gas and haulin ass.

[@tyronnecraig]

Fark that

[@koalajs]

Utter pointless, look at that water line. Boat rated for 2x300 bhp max. Awaiting to meet its maker which is a floating container at that speed.

[@crashalexander7232]

your mental

[@gypana]

You'll do a lot less or probably no damage to the hull at 70kn than you would at 20 as containers float just under the surface but the engine legs would be seriously damaged at any speed.

[@hotchihuahua1546]

A tunnel boat with one of these 450 HP motors and the right propeller would be scary as Hell !

[@crashalexander7232]

would be an anchor....

[@dannyzerafa9154]

Near on 130km/ph. Absolutely metal. I want it 😅

[@MichaelandMaryH]

I’m sure it’s very economical at 70kn. 😂

[@HighTowerAU]

600L tank would last 28 mins haha

[@doradosurfcharters]

Death wish ☠️

[@YouFishTV]

Yeah I agree you’d have to be respectful but it was in the hands of mark the Russian

[@JRotten]

Square up that transom, add another 450hp.

[@primal_pursuit]

This is epic, absolute dream boat
