Aussie, that thing looks just insane. Yep, you counted up the ponies correctly, all 2000 of them. What a setup! How many ignition swithches/keys/throttles do you suppose there are on a rig like that?

I have seen this boat before in an article somewhere. It is used by the authorities to chase and capture boats that are smuggling drugs.

that pic has been floating around the internet for about 10 years now. Several people think its a photo shop, but it looks real to me, check the reflections and the shadows around the motors. IF its photo shop, some one did a real good job. Keep in mind, those are the old VX250's long considered the fuel drinkinest motors every made. Something like 42 gph each at WOT

Check out this rig, comes from Louisiana, taken from the BayouBoyz site.
3115

Rigging nightmare, or a annuity for the rigger?
Still 2000 hp but not near as fast as the RIB. LOL

That swamp camp is a serious waste of HP IMO, not too efficient.
