[@langikingz5789]

I know the odometer reading shows 137 mph but just me it didn’t look like you guys even got close to go over 100 mph. Speeding on a boat is allot harsher then when in a vehicle or even a motorcycle. To me it looks like you all were doing maybe 75 at top but I don’t doubt your boat can reach higher speeds but just my opinion from being on a electric cigarette speed boat a few times and hitting 135 mph at the almost top speed.

[@boatvibes]

Your smart!

[@MrBuffalo1969]

You know when your doing over 130 mph both sets of your cheeks are flapping

[@donalddoan3092]

At around 6:00 in, you can see cars in the background. I have no idea how fast the cars are going, but that boat is going more than twice their speed.

[@TheNinjaRider]

Actually the dumbest comment Ive seen in quite some days. The "odometer" is a gps reading, its not a car. A lightweight 38 zrc with twin 1075 hp can cruise at 75mph, even center consoles made for fishing can cruise at that. For gods sake just look at the traffic on the side and how he fly`s past them - and do some simpel maths before you post stupid "opinions" with no prior experience in the field. Also can you post vid/pics from when you was on the electric cig? I would guess you have some good ones, since you are one of very few people in the world that has experienced that.

[@boatvibes]

I could not have said it any better man 🤙🏼

The roar of those motors and the rooster tail is epic! Really enjoyed you taking us along..

The sound of the motors can put a motor lover to sleep. Nice run boat vibes Much respect to your father too

[@1DirtbikeBoy]

Your dads an OG! I like how he stands on the seats and isn’t afraid to use the boat.

[@riverscumg6462]

He has to stand on the seat dude can't see over the dash if does not

[@trevorturple7417]

he wasnt standing on the seat. both his feet were off to the side. you dont stand on beautiful boat seats with shoes on unless youre an i-diot

That guy can drive the hell out of a boat. I love how clean the wake gets at speed.

[@typhoonjenkins8330]

Out of all the go fast boats I've seen on KZbins, this is by far my favorite. Yeah the speed is impressive as heck, but the color combo and the sound of those monster engines are just unreal cool. The rooster tail too, just wow. Boat safely fam

She sounds like she’s running beautifully now!! Nothing more exciting than speed on the water …. Missing my 38ZR days. Thnx for taking us

[@a.jacobson2932]

Man this brings back memories of when my Dad and I did this on our Donzi back in '87....Talk about nostalgia,..thx so much for posting! Brings back soooo many memories,...

Thanks for no music in the video! Love hearing the raw power of that beast! Way better than any music edited. Keep up the good work.

[@adminatfamilyllc6509]

This Past weekend my Wife and I had the pleasure of meeting a U.S. Air Force Brigadier General /Fighter Pilot while in Tampa. Small World , While sharing your content over cocktails. It turns out he is an Old friend of your Dad's, & knows you. (Called you a Good kid). He seems to truly LOVE your Dad. He told us some cool flying stories with pops. Also, some nice insights about him as a person. Seems it turns out your, Pops is the real deal. You are a very lucky young man,God Bless you both. I would really enjoy meeting you both one day. Thank You for what you do. Please extend too your dad my thanks for the things he has done. We Love the vibe!

[@fatpigeoncafe]

Thats f#%king sick boys... Love seeing you pass those cars on the road like they standing still... Donzi life!!!!!

[@brandonthorbahn2405]

Those old 1075’s are probably one of my favorite mercury motors. They sound so good.

[@abbottsplace8080]

Thanks! That's the best ride along boat video yet! You really get the feeling that you are right there. Much appreciated.

I WOULD NEVER TRADE THAT FOR A CAT HULL, THAT IS PURE BOSS FOREVER..

[@bobthebuilder8223]

How much that thing go for?

[@drifter9425]

A cat with those engines would do 145 and not be bouncing and sketchy as well as have more room

a cat is 10 times better than a V hull bruh

[@michaelxwhite]

Agreed

You know they’re going fast when Mr. Boat Vibes has to hold his hat

Those engines sound brilliant, as does the Rooster tail

WOW! What a great ride in your Donzi ZRC. Thanks

[@chamelionvibe9426]

For those who are severely affected by gas prices, if you never usually buy 91 octane, and now you have a donzi, guess what? You're buying premium high octane gas.

[@zzzzzzzzzzaper]

Airport buy some 105 rock n roll!!

[@jeremybaldwin2840]

If you’re worried about gas prices you shouldn’t have a big Donzi. Lol.

You guys are soo lucky. My best boat was my Pachanga 22, 454 mag. Beauty boat your papa bear has. Thanks for the video

[@jackmehoff9595]

Been on a smaller boat with one of those engines doing about 80. And it terrifyingly fast when on water. 130+ with dual motors take 🏀 s of steel. You dad’s skill and confidence is condemnable, salute. Take years to do this, his feel for the boat has to be amazing.

[@karenfyhr2363]

Gawd I Love that boat!.❤️❤️.... It has a coolness factor of X10..😎

Incredible boat. I’ve never been near something like this. This video really does give me a taste of what it’s like. Well done.

[@cityworker707]

I love seeing you pass the cars on the road behind you!

[@SJR_Media_Group]

Love going 100 plus in boat designed to do it safely. It was so stable even in a bit of chop. Engine sound is as intoxicating as the view of landlubbers staring in disbelief on shore.

the sound is amazing!

[@hoffmanshaven]

Good lord what a beautiful boat! Looks like a hoot. I did 80 MPH on the water a couple of times in a twin V6 mercruiser out drive I borrowed. Scariest thing I've ever done in my life. Scarier than 160 MPH down the drag strip and scarier than 120 MPH on the freeway on a motorcycle. One errant piece of log or flotsam and you're history. Awesome video! Thank you for letting me live vicariously and thank you for not putting some damn music track in and letting us hear those engines sing. Take care and be careful out there.

[@andrewgreeley3572]

Man that sound is heavenly to a motor guy it girl , but you guys did a great job on that boat. When do I get to go fo a ride.. fins up,

[@shockingguy]

Exactly, the frames of reference are very different for the mind, my first three digit ride was in an 18 foot inland lake boat with a 400 in.³ Chevy small block inside the Breakwall office Cleveland, it was freaking awesome, my friend built the engine but wouldn’t go for the ride ha ha ha, broke the flex plate though and had to get towed
