This morning Dave, Warren, and Dalton ran their River Rockets at the Ranch so we could get some good photos of them in action. The water was perfect, although the sun was intense even at 8:30 AM. And now, the photos!

That last shot really shows the water being disturbed by pressure under the port sponson. From what looks like about 3-4" away!

If you can find pics from the right angle you can really see the pressure wave that build under one at speed. Nice pics Greg, let's see some more.

Beautiful photos of some beautiful boats. But what else would one expect when you have a professional photographer and professional drivers in action….<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

There is no boat in the water at those speeds, it is cool to see how the boat is ON the water. Very cool upclose shots.

For those that are interested that was 130.4mph on one pass and a 129.5 on the other was very humid and hot out that morning and motor felt really lasy but the pic's came out good anyway, Thanks again greg,Keys dave:rolleyes:
