Very cool. Never seen that one before. Interesting how the little yellow boat couldn't catch him all through the scene, but then could out accelerate him and ram him at will 6 minutes into the chase. Thanks for posting.

Way cool. Especially for as long ago as that was.
Great driving in the yellow boat.
No audio from a big block like normal either.
Thx for sharing!I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Now I know what happened to all the hydrostream windshield's. How did the guy keep his hat so perfect the whole time is the big question?

I think it was stapled on. Seen that several years ago and it was nice to see it again. Good post.

Yep. Somebody turned me on to that couple years back. Belongs in everybody's 'boat chase' collection. Another one is the chase featuring a Glastron GT150, and other assorted Glastrons, in Peter Fonda's "Outlaw Blues". Runnin through narrow canals'n low bridges'n chit was the coolest part.
'71 Glastron V153 - Composite rebuild - Unceremoniously wrecked
'81 Baja 15 SS - "nine-paged" '77 140
'81 Carlson C500 Metric - Currently in foster care
'70 something Speedcraft - Allison 16R clone - Undergoing restoration
'79 Carlson CVZ 19 - Far back burner

I know this thread is old as dirt but I just bought an old as dirt 50 merc. Anyone know some names of some small boats like the yellow one that would work well? These types of boats are tough to find in the USA I would imagine
