It is race day at the 2023 Riverland Dinghy Derby in Renmark, South Australia and we could not have asked for better weather. Low winds and blue skies means this is going to be a cracker! Andrew and Tahlia steer their 3.15m tinny with a 30hp Yamaha around the creeks of Renmark to secure a 2nd place in the 30hp Standard class. Huge thank you to our sponsor Laser Electrical Renmark!
Holy cow that is some next level commitment. You are both adrenalin junkies. It looked like a ball of fun. Congratulations on the result
Wicked fun! 🤙🏻 cheers mate! 🍻
hmm.. not that amusing to a jetboat race, theyre moving more like twice that speed.... makes this like kinda like slow motion
@@harleyme3163 so go watch that sht.
Good clean dangerous fun!
🤙 we love it
Wow What an Epic Race I Would Be So Flippen Proud Of How Well She Done!!!!! Every Dads Dream
You and your co-pilot make an incredible team! Thanks for the ride
Cheers for watching mate, appreciate it 🤙🏻
aWESOME... this should be a TV documentary series ..... the rebuilds and the build up to the main race ..... YEEE HAAA
😅Thank you! Glad you liked it never know where it can lead to
Looks so fun! You don't need 1000HP to have a blast!
Wow
Gotta love those Aussie women , tougher than most !!!
And she has a nice butt too
wow what a rush yall got skill and trust for each other
That moving ballast really makes the boat work. Great job.
A salute to you all from the Canadian Raceboat Hall of Fame!
Thanks legend 🤙🏻
This is cool, never seen anything like this. Where was this when I was crazy
Wow! What an amazing team you are. That girl is fearless and knows exactly what it takes to get that boat to turn. I'll also give you the best looking boat award, although I didn't get to see much of the others.
This is crazy!
That is just bloody awesome, enjoyed every second. Thanks for taking the time. Well done all.
Very impressive
awesome, what a buzz, neeeeeeeeeed....hugs from the UK
Now, that's some crazy 💩! A little bit of jet boating and hydroplaning! I think that, I found a new favorite sport! 💯
Those are some crazy people for sure
Wow ! that's so great exciting racing championship ! C5 engine so power !
Home sweet Home People dont get what we say, when we say we going off the beaten track,have done it although wasnt racing others, the operator of the tinnie Doc knew his river better than his backyard going through liggies in the water it appeared to me that the trees come jumping out at ya but captain of the boat he had done it plenty so I felt safe & confident now,I can wipe that off the bucket list & I was more of a spectator in the boat rather than a swinger glad I had been both riding & pillion passenger on plenty motorbikes it surely helped.She did awesome Job in this working together & it showed.Well done for highlighting more of what the Riverland has to offer,Bravo that was some great racing great day for it,it was At that, well done & thanks for the ride!.Ooroo! If people like to go a little slower take in the sunsets on the red cliffs & take in all the Mighty Murray has to offer,May I suggest the houseboat option.👍
Thank you 🙏🏻 great place to have a race like this
WOW! that is what I call "power"boating. The lady sure has got some skills and a pair of ... balls of steel!!! Nice driven too, off course! Really loved to watch this. greetings from Belgium!
She got balls of steel
30 HP big balls
That lot more fun than any racing I’ve seen
It’s definitely an adrenaline rush, we have a lot of fun
crazy stuff, great to watch, I am now a fan !!
Cheers mate 🤙🏻
Kinda similar to bathtub racing that went from Nanaimo bc to Vancouver bc it was hairy especially on windy days lol
Almost shut it off due to the music. I'm glad I stuck it out because after a bit I couldn't stop watching. That is intense racing. Great job. I think you guys are a little bit nuts. Really enjoyed the video (more so without the music). That still shot at 19:00 is fantastic.
Thanks mate, I really appreciate the feedback. Would you rather no background music or something else?😊
@@BarelyStandardRacing You are welcome. I prefer no background music. I make ride videos on my old hot rodded 2 stroke motorcycles and they make their own natural music. I've never added any music to any of my videos. That free repetitious YT music grates on me. Personal preference maybe. Your racing video is intense and the sound of the engine racing would be more than enough for me.
@@BarelyStandardRacing do keep you motivation music going - that is all part of the story.
This looked like some kind of chase in a James Bond movie! Loved it!
I have to say.... this was an awesome race. Not black white or any other colour, but a great race, oh what fun.
So awesome to se people wiyh such skill and knowledge. That girl is fearless! And on the straights, its almost like you hit a second gear when she jumps back.
And hanging over the bow when approaching the turns. Stellar!
That is totally wild. I don't know how they can be certain they're on the course. That girl at the bow has some real moxy.
Thank you 🙏🏻 we do plenty of hours of practising and pre running 🏃
Great sportsmanship through the race and at the end giving each other compliments. Keep it up 👍
Thanks mate, this was our first Creek race together can’t wait for the next one on the 17th June 🤙🏻
Total badassery. Much respect.
Hittin that apex like a mofo!
WOW! LOVE I
Oh Farrrk yeah... This is ME !!
Amazing team. Bet shes worn out by the end.😰 Would totally not be able to do this with my wife. She would be amazing! And my simp brain would get distracted with her fine self dancing around in the bow and drive it into a tree☠️🤪. 17 years together and she still messes me up 🥰.
Bloody unreal! Cavitation is a bastard😅 thankyou for your footage and showing how you guys and girls are so close to jaggered logs! Holly molly! 😊 muscle that tiller handle❤ one big stuff up and your a kabab! 😅 sticks in the face😮 if I was passenger I would one the BROWN TROUSERS AWARD! Winners!
The branches were coming close I dont care who you are
Ahah cheers mate. Yes logs everywhere, it’s the cheeky buggas that are just under the water that you can’t see. Not good if you hit one of them. It’s a long time to hold the tiller flat out, it took us 1hr 26mins to race about 100km
If thats ur mother in law, she ROCKS hard, if its not they ROCK hard too, bloody awesome rides. Thanks for the fun. 🇦🇺💪😲👍is this all on the same day? What stamina WOW. The guy infronts gotta have a bigger carby for Sure!!!!
She did a wicked job for her first race, the race is done all in a day over 100ks long take about an hour and a half 👏🤙
@@BarelyStandardRacing Epic stuff, u sure know how to drive that little pocket rocket!!!🤘
absolutely awesome stuff,stay safe and enjoy it while you are young
sign me up!
That was terrifying just watching, what great teamwork, and a great watch. Not for the faint hearted thats for sure. Cheers from NZ, Phil
It’s definitely an adrenaline rush 🤙🏻
That lead boat has his shit dialed way in. No chance catching them. Straight walkin away
Definitely does help being the first around the turn boy at the start. But they ran a good race 🤙🤙😆
Absolutely fantastic! I hope you will be continuing the filming! I will definitely be watching! Your :navigator: has some insanity running in her blood! I cannot imagine steering that long the whole time on the edge!
Thanks mate, she has no fear 😮 will hopefully post another video after the next race! End of June 🤙 definitely a long race takes hour and a half, and we cover 100ks of river and creeks
Fun to watch, thanks!
Between this and thundercat racing, yall have a blast.
thank you ! how fun!
Dang!!! I've raced boats before, at an Ocean bay, but that is something else. Too many trees sticking out. O_o
Hectic!👍
Awesome job guys
Wow, thanks for sharing, glad nobody was decapitated. Pretty scary stuff and entertaining to watch. I'm impressed by the sterling good sportsmanship.
Awesome Content!! Love the track, crazy speeds in such tight areas :D
Thanks, some of the best creeks in the area to race through
yoga pants make everything better.
Absolute insane....thank you for an insight of the craziest sport of I have seen
WAY too much fun 💕💕💕
Keep an eye out for low hanging lumber. It'll shorten your race! Great teamwork. 👍
Reminds me of the marathon races back in the 60's. I believe they were a bit wilder
Great race! Please tho next time grab the bars and not the outside of the front, you will lose hand if you bump into something.😊cheers🎉
GREAT RACE, WHAT PROP ARE YOU RUNNING ON YOUR YAMAHA 30HP? May I ask what top end speed are you getting? If you had the hole shot you would have gotten 1st place, Cool trailer, good ground clearance to go anywhere. Really enjoyed your video, your both amazing!
Thank you! We run a 13 pitch prop and the speed in our class range from 65ks to 70 kilometres per hour. Sports class they go 90ks + 🤙🤙
MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA here awesome dude just found ya channel sub done cool thanks Renmark no a lotta boaties that go there 30-40 yrs there family's have shak s n nice jet boat';s little bigger than ya dinghy lol good result well done
Thanks Man, you’ll have to make the trip one year and watch. This race is usually on the first weekend in Feb if there’s no floods
I think I'd call this "wearing the boat". The people and the boat are one with the balancing and counter weighting. My curiosity is how you avoid whacking a stump with the propeller.
Plenty of hours of practice! we still do hit them ever now and then 🙈🙈
Absolute AWESOME vid guys and great race
Cheers Tim 🤙🏻
On the edge of my seat, nice work!
That was fun! The course may have been a bit narrow and shallow for my boat.
What type of motor is this a 2 stroke? What cc?
Yamaha 30HP 2 stroke 🤙🏻
That is great - crazier than the stuffing around in tinnies as a kid.
Love me some Yamahammer 2-strokes!
atlantic city!!! 777
Awesome racing! Are you sure that that is a female in the front??? I looked closely and I saw a pair of Steel balls way bigger than mine! Great job
She has done a wicked job holding on, this was her 1st time racing 🎉, both 1st and 2nd have female navigators
Too cool! We want more!!!!
She got me leaning with her at every turn
When you are racing stay out of the churned white water, your prop loses thrust like when it cavitates
They should clamp down on the type of Helmets their allowed to run in ! They tend to fill with high pressure water snapping spinal cord
We will have a suss, not to often there is an accident and most of the time everyone is okay 👌🤙
Wow. Now, THAT's a team!
You guys can run my pots any day!
If I had a boat like that, I'd be experimenting with pivoting daggerboards on either side or one in the center, that can be deployed in the chicanes and lifted for the straights, to minimize side slip in turns and let the boar carve a tighter, faster line.
Some serious Isle of Man shit going on here...wow!!
I wonder if there are any sharks or crocs in that water? 😮
All fresh water no crocs or sharks 🦈 luckily!
How fast are these folks going?
In the standard class we do about 36 knots to 37 🪢
what type if dingy do you use and size length ?
It’s a 315 Stacer proline 🤣
Did I see that right. Those are 30 hp 2 strokes?? That’s a lot of power for those little boats. What’s top speed? Great ride. Thanks.
The 3 cyl yammies are big tho because its the same block as the 50hp. Atm Icm converting my yammi 40 to a 50 and porting and boring it so its fonna be a blast on my little skiff
Yamaha 30HP 2 strokes, depending on props and boats 65 to 70ks in the standard class, in sport with modifications will go over 90ks
@@BarelyStandardRacing Wow! That’s fast!
I want to do this
nice mixture of pride and shy modesty collecting and posing with the trophies. hope everything stays good
Does anyone ever hit those stumps? They ought to flag them.
Most of the big ones underwater are marked, but we do a fair few hours of practice to know where they are 🤙
Wussy race!!! You should try getting a bathtub,and attaching a 8ft surfboard under it . Put a 9.9 hp motor on it and race 20 miles across basically the open Pacific Ocean,in waters that can be up to10ft waves,before they cancel it!!!
Looks like a 6 year old up front to keep the weight down, I guess.
Light like a jockey 😂
open her up! let her eat!
Wow ! Most hazardous 🤨🙂
A drone view of the track
I hope ya ported the shit outta that motor.
😂 standard class (barely standard) 😂😂
Now you just need to get a mercury!
We love the Yamahas down here 😂😅
Absolutely love this type of racing. I hope those two are married. I wonder if she has ever been injured.
This is her 1st race, hopefully I don’t injure her 😬😬 Not married this is my sister-in-law, my wife normally is in the front 🤙
Double cup prop prevents blowout cavitation. We do on offshore racing
What skill and bravery! I’ve never seen tiller steering skills. What’s top speed? I’m guessing 50 mph
Cheers man, top speed is about 46mph 💨
Great video. Thanks for making it. It would be even better without the music.
Good job, nice video. You folks down under are bat shit crazy! But I love you all.😂
Naaaaa thats not even close to the race that takes place in goya corrientes. Its a fishin tournament where more than a thousend boat go out and race to the fishing spot. " fiesta nacional del surubi".
Go and do a surf race and then we'll see wild.
This looks like a hell of a lot of fun! I've raced jet boats & hydroplanes amongst other land vehicles over the years. That prop goes into cavitation really easy, do you have a prop guy you work with?
We do most of our own prop work but because we’re in a standard class, we can’t use a hydraulic trim. We have to set our pin height and run with that. Normally run 5th pin so the prop is a fair bit out of the water 💦 😅
@@BarelyStandardRacing Surfacing props are a different design to submersed props, it sounds like you need a Cleaver style. Cupping the edges is a backyard trick that I used to do for people on the tow ball of my truck but you have nothing to lose by talking to a prop guy. Race hard & stay safe Mate!😎
Пилот класс !!! Результат может быть намного лучше если доработать винт - убрать кавитацию в поворотах . Очень долго загружается ! Для этого нужно уменьшить шаг у ступицы винта , что будет способствовать быстрому сбросу воздушного пузыря и почти мгновенной загрузке . А так , большие потери скорости и очень долгий разгон при выходе с поворота на прямую .
i am guessing, but it looked like they picked up some weeds early on and it started cavitating. they also were propped for higher top speed which would also cause the cavitation.
they are in a class where only certain modifications are allowed.
@@6226superhurricane are they limited for props?
@@medajim9092 i think they are limited to factory props.
What's with the annoying music in the background? Its not necessary.
Thanks mate, I really appreciate the feedback. We will try something else on the next video
Music is fine
Agreed when it comes to racing the motor is the music
For someone watching literally from other side of the world the music brought me down under to the race. Well done you two, great vid with or without music 😎
