Thumbs up You want to see some incredible offshore racing.. Take 25 min and watch this video

Last weeks race in Australia. Tough course (Swells, bump and flat) really well produced and narrated. Great graphics. No staged racing going on here. Awesome driving makes me want to get in the boat so bad.


Gotta watch the whole thing. If you can put it up on your TV.

We always talk about "how to make it work" in my opinion this is one of the steps. A full on legitimate race (Victory seems to be 10+KM faster but hey ..its their show). Not a replay of the same turn 6 times, knowledgable announcers that are focused on racing and know their drivers and race strategy.

Great play by play announcing. Sounded like they were calling the Kentucky Derby with the excitement in their voices.

Great racing for sure. Too bad we cannot have something like that in the states. A lot of boats in the field. Looked like some of the old days in the APBA stock class!

I watch the Australian races on MAV TV. Very good coverage IMO.

They get a boat back in the water after less than a day after they destroy the front. I can't get a generator serviced for 7 weeks much less get a couple of scratches fixed.

WOW

Either the announcers had way too much coffee or they really are into racing!!!-- Dubai- "The boys got knocked around a bit" I love their attitude -- glass definitely half full. Heck after seeing that crash I'm surprised that the guys in the boat had any "boys" left.

Very good video!!

We get battles between ding-dongs in US racing all the time.
