Hello Everyone,
While not "offshore racing," we competed in the 300 mile Parker Enduro last weekend on the Colorado River between California and Arizona. We captured a class win and a 7th overall. We were racing a 20.5' Grand National Inboard Endurance V-Drive with one of our TCM 1200 Carb engines.
Its a great race with lots of different styles of equipment and a 24' size limit. Enjoy the footage and feel free to ask questions!
For reference, we ran about 100 MPH down the straights with about a 110 MPH top speed for the day. The boat could run 130 with the correct prop setup.

First, how is "Joe #555", the boat that flipped?
How come you move the wheel around so much more than Bob?????
Did you pretty evenly split up the miles?Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!

It may just be the parts of the video I chose were rougher water, or maybe Im just a little hotter on the wheel. Hey Im a driver not a throttleman just working my game
