    This is what an OB race motor looks like when the only rule is displacement limit.

    Run on kneel downs w/no weight limit.
    As in, 150+ HP on a 200 lb rig.
    Plus weight of driver.

    Baddest of the bad!

    Last I heard, the 500cc hydro, Kilo record was 128.

    Baddest of the bad!
    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.

    I know.

    Not a fan.

    Courses shrank from 1 2/3 mile to 1??
    Some even 3/4 mile.

    Thats a circle.

    Like bike Racing on the Isle of Man, let them race. It’s their choice. No one makes him get in the boat.

    Years ago I saw an A Stock with a capsule and that’s when I knew I would never race again!

    I agree, sub 50mph "capsule" boats are pure idiocy. Just stay on the beach in your padded bubble.
