The drag boat is by far the right gun for the gun fight.

The whole concept of the "world's fastest pleasure/offshore boat" with fixed drives, a rearward rudder, canopy and oxygen, professional throttleman, and a million dollar+ corporate sponsored budget.........is pretty wacky too!

I sold Troy Ferry his first Offshore boat this past year. He was one of last years champs in alcohol Drag boats. Needless to say the sea trail in the offshore boat was fun. 25 Baja outlaw in the pacific on a BIG day. I kapt asking "Are you scared yet"
"Nope go faster!!!" "How about now?" "Nope, Go Faster!"
Finally his friend in the back yells.."Im Scared, Im Scared" I talked to him last month. He whippled it!
