Great video. What wonderfully calm water! I hope you get some information about the competitors. I used to run radio controlled fuel powered model boats. I set a couple of records in outboard mono and tunnel hull APBA classes. We seldom had enough calm water to run flat-out for long without flipping or spinning. I appreciate the technology, skill and daring to do what you see here.

Thanks for your interesting comments. There were several world records made this year and I think the fastest speed was 130+ MPH. Excellent conditions on the water but still very risky for the competitors.
