I am not even sure if I should ask this - is that real?
If it is real I am glad I am not in the boat.

Agree...bottom of boat looks strange and not much water coming off any thing in the shot.
I'd say not real because of the amount of water still exiting the exhaust, by that point in the air with that much hang time, those pumps would be dry. But still a cool pic
It's real.... Was from a photo shoot that Jay Nichols did a few years back.

It has been photoshopped a bit I would say.
Wow, it looks like this guy has even been to Mt. Everest!!! :eek::leaving:

You sure that is real Bud. I don't see no bunny.

big boat with bravos, I wonder if they still worked when it landed?
Randy if you look real close just in front of the motor. You will notice the Bunny's ears. One is standing up with its tip bent over the other is laid out flat. He is crouched down scared to death shivering with Fear.

You can see Warpath has tabs down and Apache is trimmed out and bow light.
Key West Harbor is calm(er) water, until you exit & follow the race course into open water. Many have died and/or been injured over the years, as they leave the calm, and enter the rough, which includes a very large "hole" type crater bottom thats out aways, and that the surface water radically changes on, for the worse. If you don't keep track of where that hole is, and alter your trims, etc., when your on top of it, you can get into some serious trouble fast. Older 41 Apache video, but a good one... Hard to believe, but the 43, 45, & 47, were/are even better in the rough. Enjoy. https://youtu.be/9pDV7vHF2G4

that's the exact video I was thinking of, all they had to do was have a big ole 50-60 sportfish hooked up and come in like a slolum skier and nail it just prior to hitting the monster wake. all I know is I'd never try that in a cat.Quote:
