Watching from Ft. Lauderdale Beach as my friend Will's dad (Bill McComb) races in a super-vee heat. 42' Fountain Hull, Twin 750hp Vortech 8.0 engines. We rode on the yellow "Pier 57" Fountain from where it was launched to the "hot pit" area.

We also helped change props in the pit as well.

As far as I can remember the following boats were in this race which was Super Vee, the highest class of V-bottom boats.

Teams:
Pier 57
Miccosukee Indian Gaming
Lucas Oil
CMS
Spiderman
Donzi
UTZ
Ettore

  • You mean Thee Muscle

  • Is that the old B-28 Dramamine boat? From the 'Jawana' team. If so it was a Skater built Fountain 42 cut down to meet the 39' B class from the late '90s

  • Fantastic clip! Thanks for posting - really captures what for me is an unbelievable spectacle......
