    Thumbs up speed boat racing 200+ mph

    these boats are hitting the waters at 200+ mph.. that kinda equals to like 350mph on land.. i say thats F@#king fast..

    yea but of course it not like the ones in the video.. this one is like for personal use.. but its still hits the water like 80-100mph.. also prices depend on length of boat, open or closed cabin, and aero dynamics.
