Finally. After MONTHS. KZhead recommends something I WANT TO WATCH
you don't like all the catvids
Shit Happens ? Funny Strange , also Funny Ha Ha
All 2 minutes of it
So many nice boats. Love the sounds of the V-8 motors.
Bonjour du Canada Greta Thunberg symphony .
Dude, you gotta bring back your nightly videos! Those were like therapy to me, ha!
Such sweet tunes.
Awesome. Would love to see those bad boys on Superior.
I like the fact that guy who installed the prop had a calibrated elbow. I learned that "skill" in the service.
It has to be calibrated with the trusty block of wood.😆
Digging the OG Magnum!!. Beast.
I used to love going to the races back in the 80's. Need to take my son so he can see first hand what his grandfather did.
Need to have a ringtone of them running at speed
from new zealand. absolutley beautiful wow, thank you 4 sharing.
I like the sound of the Cigar Monster!! A down looooow growl!!
Thank you, nothing sounds like a high performance boat!!
you're welcome!
Thanks for the heads-up, I would love to come and see these speed demons, Cheers from Australia.
Mega bucks boats, but you still need a block of wood for a prop change😊
I would love to see a few 12 cylinder motors. Ferrari or lambo's. The sound alone would give me chills. 👍
What a Rush it must be ! Feels like your going twice as fast in boat
Just Imagine when the World Transforms to all Electric Vehicles We Wil not have too Listen to this Disgusting Beautiful Sound How Sad
NEVER GONNA HAPPEN
For real this guy on crack never going to happen@HWAYOUTALINE
The noise is the best part
A mountain high pile of sarcasm is always good TRUMP 2024!!
lol,,the Lithium Battery Explosion's will be awesome for Boat Racing👍🏼
Digging the OG Magnum!!
Absolutely awesome 👊
OH THE VANITY OF IT ALL
Good to see the Kiwi's out there going hard as usual.
Top Stuff! Great viewing! Water conditions actually look like “Offshore “ not a flat water.. gotta have ocean swell! 👍👍👍🇦🇺🏴☠️
Those motors are amazing
Yes!
Hi. What sort of area is Sunny Isles Beach? Thinking of going there this winter for a getaway.
bonjour magnifique bateaux super vidéos merci de se partage cordialement
Beautiful!
great boats for us!
Lots of change in boats and motors since I watched the Gold Cup races many years ago in Lake Washington however the danger is still there.
WebSep 30, 2023 · Zip Zap Power brings the best boat racing high speed action from the XInsurance Great Lakes Grand Prix on Lake Michigan in Michigan City, Indiana! Class 1, …
The Xinsurance class 1 MTI runs fixed m6 drives as opposed to torque tubes. Curious to see how they finish the year.
what is the engine ? fabulous 😁
Beast
How do these boats compare to a ww2 Elco 80foot class Pt boat or patrol torpedo boat with there two 1500hp Packard engines
It Must have been fun fighting the chop of Lake Michigan. One day it can be like glass, then the next day you can have 6 to 10' waves. Not too many cats on Michigan it's deep-haul land for a good reason.
I had my boat at the Michigan City Marina for 10 years before moving to FL. Where is on a lift in the back.
Good stuff
Вот эта катера я таких ещё не видел форма судна идеальная .
NOW THATS A BOAT! John P.
I remember living in point Pleasant and seeing the Hennessy and Benihana Grand prix.
great 👍
That Pothole Heroes boat @11:18. How does the trim work? Looks like the drives are fixed and I did not see any trim tabs.
Woah, what happened to dude on the left @1:00
they need to Come back to Lake Ontario...
Geil!🤙
The Huski boat seems somewhat Swedish🤠
Nice engines. Any jet drives?
Jet drives are nowhere near as efficient as a prop, so no. Two boats of the same size, weight and HP, the prop boat will be faster. I had a jet boat and loved it, then I got a surface drive prop boat and forgot about the jet, lol.
Can't hide that money. We like our slow moving trains and football here in Clemson. Go Tigers!
JESUS!!!
Lake Michigan?? I wonder if they could be a little more Vague when and where?
1:35... I thought the guy was installing a propeller onto the dock for a second there.
Wow…can’t imagine the $$$$ involved in these boats…my lil crappy 23’ with one 496 ci motor costs a small fortune to own and operate 😂
Is this Michigan City, IN? Do they still do the race out of Grand Haven up to Point Betsie and back?
Yes
I actually thought it was Saugatuck or Ludington
Are things faster than a boat with 6 x 400 Mercury outboards?
dang at 2:03 were still wedging a block of wood and a socket between the $15,000 blade and lower unit to tighten up the shaft nut. I woulda thought it would have been more technical on a $2,000,000 boat
The only thing missing was a shade tree
Nope! What works works!
In cash I could literally afford to buy 2 props, a steering wheel and maybe 2 seats. That's it. lol.
One prop from those boats is worth more than my whole boat and motor.$$$$$$$
Sounds like the Drag Stripe
Hy, WHAT MARVELLOUS OFFSHORES.
Can't help thinking that if OSHA sees this they will have all those crewmembers in fireproof suits, life jackets, harness, and lifeline...
*Let the Sunshine In...*
Me too. 😅😅😅
I'ma need a W 16 for this one with aircraft WW2 style spool the Napier blower n cut down the pistons engine let 30000 to 55000 rpms ride with it 😁 hang on tight
The hobbit turned like as if there was…SQUIRREL…huh what🤪 what🤪🤪
what is the exact color of the dfYoung ? Its the most beautifull boat in the world!
A 'My Boat's louder than your Boat' Competition?
Those rich guys can rent the nicest furniture girls for their decks!
Sleeping Sound
Price ?
Glug, glug, keep those oil wells pumping! NO ELECTRICS for me.
Why do the race boats have to start off with their engines in gear?
They don’t have a typical transmission that can shift into gear while the engine is running. They use what’s called a “crash box” type trans that is way more reliable but can only shift into gear with engine off.
Any Turbine Boats?
no turbines this season on the race circuit
This is music. It's going to be sad when they have to go electric.
Is this the sea?
Holy lumpy cams(camshafts lol) batman!!!
👍🤘🏁
Have to, say if these monsters didn’t exist for the pleasure of a very people, the cost of living for many millions would be a lot less.
What else can be better sounds than theese big V 8 engines....
#5
Anyone find out what happened to the 1-minute guy? 1:00 Looks like he may have got a shock.
💉💉
Вот жто мощь 😮
Yikes some stout boats........
Rhaaaaaa la vache 👌🤪🤪🤪
No torque wrench for the $5000 prop!
The direction of the spin will torque it down
Where is Russia Zveda engines, every 5000hp???? They may be unlimited!
ich hab aber keine Maschine nap
Traumhafte Boote, So etwas würde ich gerne mal live sehen.
Put BIGGER Props on.
Na und ???
f outboards lol
De beaux jouet pour l'élite...ils ont les voitures qui vont avec..les maisons.....les,avions...les lois..les gouvernements...ca doit être fatiguant..bien content d etre un gueux parmis les gueux...😊
あ
I always get a kick out of guys my age, 74, with baseball hats on backwards.
Gaspillage
Not going to happen
Destroy nature as a typicall yankee sport 🫶🫶🫶
Got yer yankee hanging lo with an afro
Besides that thought we settled this Yankee shit in 1776
Limey
Meh, whole lot of nothing...
Dude changing the prop in the water ... kinda sketchy with a 10 thousand dollar prop I don't know
That’s what I was thinking,but he seemed confident in his abilities,just don’t drop anything.😳
