At :44, going under the bridge at what looks like over 50 ++ knots or possibly much more!?!?! Just goes to show that money and horsepower does not equate to brain cells. What an f'ing idiot.

That bridge they went under is basically in open water. Boats go under it at full speed all the time.

I think sometimes I'm getting soft in the head, cause I see things like those boats, and the millions and millions of dollars wasted on them and then I think about all the people in this Country that, for no reason of their own, don't have a hat to piss in, and it makes me wonder sometimes if we (as a species) are really fit to rule. <end of rant>

Agree with ya'll. Too bad so many of these several hundred thousand dollar boats have what I call a ronald mcdonald paint job. A lot like the "chopper" craze. Plus so many have some serious HP which is wasted on carrying around a bunch of extra dead weight. Ray Hunt, Dick Bertram, and Don Aronow are all looking down and shaking their heads.

I like Ronald McDonald paintwork. I admit it, I like em flashy, "Miami Style". Eyes of the beholder, right? One does wonder where all that money comes from.
