Thanks to my friend Fast Loud Photography for the helicopter shots and getting the bulk of the Airbnb! kzbin.info

[@FastLoudPhotography]

Thank you, my friend! It was fun to shoot with you all weekend. 👊🏼💥

[@andybrand6156]

It is nice to see the SoCal boat builders, DCB & Eleminator, Skater on both coasts. The Wright Performance from Florida is amazing. I LOVE this video. Thank you.

[@Nick-xw3dk]

Love the video, a video cut and edited like this is super helpful when trying to decide what model or manufacturer you want to spend half a million dollars or more with for a new build. Its one thing to see these boats sitting on a trailer on the manufacturers instagram pages, but a lot of the manufacturers don't show the boats performing to their abilities enough. So thank you for this video.

[@ruftime]

Sweet filming! Great to see real speed machines, without 6 outboards dragging on the transom😎

[@GT-mn3bx]

Except 2 screaming 300s is all that is needed like on race boats.

[@UNCLERULES]

Beautiful footage!

[@FamilyFlippers]

Best footage of the event! Great job!!

[@mikejenkins9135]

Love the awesome sound of piston engines outstanding video work love it

[@Random-rt5ec]

Pretty awesome - I like to think of all the jobs created to build, run and maintain such incredible machines. I say this because worked for the Boston Whaler boat company right out of high school & it paid for my night school college education.

[@plamenatanasov1091]

Folks tend to forget that an entire industry sprouted up around powerboats.

[@bravofoxable]

again, nice one Zippy 👍👊

[@RCnerd74]

Thanks for sharing Would love to see more deep-v boats🙃

[@bogginbrandon]

This is some of the best footage of the shootout/poker run I have ever seen! Thanks for the hard work to bring this to us!

[@ZipZapPower]

thank you!

[@squirrelmaster1225]

wow, what a nice treat. TY

[@nasosnasos8054]

Love love

[@scottlincoln6286]

The DCB"s.........NICE

[@klote82]

Ive lived in florida pretty much my whole life and Ive never seen a lake so beautiful before! Wow! I was in Cali recently and the change of scenery, the mountainous terrain, and the weather really have me wanting to move to the west coast!

[@ZipZapPower]

It is a good looking lake, a bit desolate but that is where some of the beauty comes from. Take a trip out to the southwest during the summer, get a feel for the pizza oven.

[@klote82]

@@ZipZapPower Yea I'd love to! Love the channel keep it up!

[@sanfranciscobay]

8:28 The Dog seated forward seems to enjoying the ride.

[@danielholland8255]

Almost all IO’s love it

[@Jvirou]

I never thought i would see an inboard doug wright

[@Lynchfan88]

There's quite a few DCB's (Dave's Custom Boats) in this vid, lol. Nice vid, good fly by's.

[@ken244]

my friend just bought a family pontoon boat , he likes it but wishes it was faster then i seen this lol the perfect pontoon boat.

[@MZ-bl6wg]

8:58 that pontoon boat was flying!!!!

[@nolangoldberger2921]

I’m watching these videos and hoping I get a ride in one before I die.

[@vb305]

amazing.

[@coyote-killr]

More Intense than Thermal Imagery Hog hunting at night in Central Florida????...It's definitely up there with it...💥💥🐗

[@louiegarcia7527]

thank god there's water in the lake! thought it was dried out already

[@kidproject4536]

nice one

[@smittys19daytona]

funny how strong the IO is on the west coast, sound bad ass for sure, but outboards are the way to go to me these new 400's and 450's are seeing some amazing #'s

[@guicohj]

We like loaping cams here on the west coast. Nothing sounds better than a built engine.

[@gungadinn]

Most impressive is the pontoon boat with the twin 300's

[@avenger007007]

Some thing you don't always see. A Pontoon keeping up Cats.

[@jeremyclarkson1]

Ah nah Jet Pack man is there 😂

[@damkayaker]

The chopper should fly a little lower so the rooster tail grabs it. Then it could be added to all the other Robinson crashes.

[@dannysdailys]

Except for one problem the helicopter can't go 183 mph. So how did you keep up?

[@gmoney7448]

On the dcb they have black poles on the lower unit what do they do?

[@ZipZapPower]

They have cleaver props. The tubes provide air to the propellers so the boat can plan more quickly, they are surface piecing propellers and need air to go faster.

[@frankthetank9332]

Fantastic video, love it! But damn, that vector looks like the villain’s boat from cartoon batman.

[@ZipZapPower]

strange little boat, was flying tho!

[@smkmd1961]

What does the steering feel like driving these "cigarette" boats?

[@krishnatirunagari5392]

Bring such types of boats to India also and arrange powerboat races here also.

[@krishnatirunagari5392]

@@kensi379 just bring all those boats to India and arrange the races as India has many rivers of about 10000 kms and also coast line of 7500 kms.

[@markmorgan5892]

Awesome video as usual big man!!! It was nice talking to u when u did the livestream on Instagram during the street party! But at timestamp 3:50, that skater seemed like it had a weird hull design with the steps going sooooo far forward on the sponsons or each hull or whatever people want to call them lol. Do u happen to know why they go so far forward on this boat? Is it an older model and that’s why? And what part of the lake are u recording at? Thanks big man!

[@ZipZapPower]

thanks Mark, sad i couldn't go live on youtube. no clue what the steps so far forward, but it seems the water comes in contact with. hopefully someone who knows can chime in.

[@robkaufman6052]

That's our 32ft skater at the 3:50 mark. The new paint design makes it look that way. Its a traditional step hull. Awesome to see us ripping it! Great video!

[@ZipZapPower]

Thanks for the info Rob. What motors are you running? I've got you going by twice (maybe more) as well as many of the other boats making multiple passes, I am planning on making feature videos with details of individual boats for Facebook facebook.com/ZipZapPower/ and the other channel kzbin.info

[@markmorgan5892]

@@robkaufman6052 oh ok awesome thank u for the info. Cause I was wondering, I was like dang I didn’t realize skater made a cat that had the steps going that far forward. Glad u were able to see this message so that u could tell us about it. And by the way your boat is so beautiful!!! I absolutely love it!!!! I want to ride in one one day to feel how exhilarating it probably is!!!!

[@markmorgan5892]

@@ZipZapPower I’m glad u did it on Instagram cause I think it’s easier to communicate with u!! At least I know it’s easier on our end, I don’t know if it’s easier on your end or not!!! Keep up the awesome work bud!!!

Сколько в км/ч?🤔

[@Michael_00001]

Does nobody run Apache boats anymore?

[@jeremyclarkson1]

Kinda wish there were some fast CCs tho

[@sanitymaintenance1585]

How do you fish out of a boat going that fast ??? lol

[@mikey2111]

Not really familiar with this. Is this a contest or do they just go as fast as they can from one side of the lake to the other?

[@robsteries]

The playground of the super rich

[@lloydprunier4415]

No wake zones and pretty ladies are all right, but this what the boats are meant to do!!!!

[@Googleaccount-sf7ir]

So what's the point?

[@albertmyers7176]

👍👍👍😎

[@JohnErni-xf9sz]

You need some caint of permit to drive there with any caint of boat❤ you welcome

[@brandonclarke4063]

Typo @1:40

[@FamilyFlippers]

I saw that too. Good catch.

[@sparkyguitar0058]

Nice video. But if you really want to show off bring it to the Atlantic Ocean. Where the big boys play for real. I know you Zip Zap know what I'm talking. Whole lot different than these little lakes. I was on Torch lake in Mi. Seen LOTO. Even Key West is easy compared to the real running.

[@theirishman8356]

I take it the Monster 50 from Hustler is a bust . I never see them at all.

[@888jackflash]

Some handsome artillery, to be sure... but, speaking as a Coastal person, all that extreme power (and money!)... just to go back and forth.. in a LAKE? Forgive me but I don't really get it.

[@guicohj]

Of course you don't cuz you can't afford.

[@timwilson1339]

See Batman's gay cousin at 2:25

[@nickmarino2033]

I love speed but some of those passes were dangerous just saying

[@tvdinner325]

That seems like a lot of money and trouble, to go less than 100MPH. Those guys need to buy a Kawasaki H2.

[@FamilyFlippers]

Most of these boats can hit up to 150 easily.

[@tvdinner325]

@@FamilyFlippers Nah! Physics prevent it.

[@FamilyFlippers]

@@tvdinner325 Well, the one I was buying that looks like the one in the screenshot does 150, the new one I am buying does 130, and the one on my channel my friends boat that is also a DCB does almost 180. One of the videos I shot I'm in it.

[@tvdinner325]

@@FamilyFlippers Please show the proof of MPH. It's my understanding that 150-160MPH is a barrier. I raced/owned a Formula Thunderbird in the '80s. There was a barrier.

[@FamilyFlippers]

@@tvdinner325 It's on my channel, DCB M44, I am the one taking the video. Or you can also check here on KZbin DCB M44 or DCB M35 they have a few videos with the speed of 170 MPH maybe a little more.

[@darknes7800]

The cats are fast, but the side to side motion is way too bad. A deep V will bounce you up and down in the chop, which is expected. Side to side of the cats is just too much.

[@benbilirim5915]

🙄🥳

[@galenanderson2541]

Slow and heavy looking

[@stephenlane2826]

Sorry guys that Bat wing boat just doesn't cut it. It's just my personal opinion. I could never buy one.

[@Richierich1285]

and they say nothing ever come from drugs if it wasnt for drug runners in the 70s and 80s theses boats wouldnt be around

[@Annapolisprep]

You can tell the cheap people with the gay outboards

[@darknes7800]

MTI 440X is pretty cool, with twin 500R outboards, hits about 130-140MPH. But I like the V8 IO boats better !

[@iq6840]

It's so pointless. It really is. You could be enjoying a day on the water, relaxing, listening to music and swimming. This, I don't know what this is.
