Great film, why not do a follow up one, showing the life boat crew pulling all the passengers out of the sea, having drowned, as not one life jacket and kill cord between them
With that sort of twin engined horse power on the back, I would have thought even the Dutch weren't that stupid.

We always wear our killcords around one of our legs to have both hands available to grab the girl next to us . Besides that we use the new invisible lifejackets from www.invisiblelifejackets.com. They are great!
Any other positive comments?

When I saw the Triple X-Craft, I realised that you had the Hoorn for them.

Just one of many.

..............and I like the Dutch, I think they have got the right attitude to a lot of things At least you are now taking it with good cheer.

By the way, the boats look pretty good Perhaps when looking, you might find the kill cord is around the Sales Managers neck,

Guys guys, it's a pretty damn sweet video and lets jus sit back and admire it, not nag. Yes, they're wearing no life jackets and that's their choice. It's not like someone will watch the video and think "Woooo I want to be just like that guy and not wear one."

Nice video, nice looking boats

Life jackets should be worn but is not the end of the world.!! Sometimes lifejackets are frightening for the customers

Great video, Shows the craft off very well. Love the red beanbag type of forward lounging mat. They should be wearing life jackets. If only I had some spare fun money.

It's 'Olland - might be freshwater?

Anyway, I don't care if he drives in the sea - so long as he has his seatbelt on...
