Back from the 1950s-1980s there was a whole segment of motorsports based around using leftover WWII Fighter Plane engines like the Rolls Royce Merlin, Griffon, and Allison made V12 engines. Some smart dudes in Seattle grabbed one of these engines and jammed it into a special boat hull designed to skim over the water. Some of the most recognizable raceboats of the day like Bernie Little's Miss Budweiser, The Squire Shop, Atlas Van Lines, and Miss Bardahl are on display at the Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum in Kent Washington. They are the only facility in the world restoring, showing and operating these classic beasts.
