Hi paul! - they were going like stink, propa v8 monsters I would guess by the noise and pace - not much time to stare at them tho - I would chew my arm off to have a ride on one!! been quite inspired by the www.boatmad.com website , the multimedia section ,all the racing boats videos!
My rib is fine apart from tube damaged aquired the other weekend, so got really ichy feet right now missing it badly! - not entirely sure how it happened just waiting to see if I can get it fixed at a good price if repairable, theres no gettin away from it shes an old boat - pics below
