Trailer for Relentless Quest, World's Fastest Lobsterboat, an independent production about Maine's lobsterboat racing series by Portland production company Persistence Media.
@alpabetty I've watched this video so many times that I occasionally find myself saying "green-green-green-go-go-go!" when I want something to move faster!
hey johnny, this is dave, not to nitpick, but for the people who don't know much about lobsterboat racing, world's fastest working lobsterboat is "Starlight Express" (58.9 mph) 2010 portland lobsterboat races.(world"s fastest lobsterboat-Foolish Pleasure,72.8 mph,Galen Alley, 2011 Jonesport-Beals lobsterboat races) and as alphabetty asked, where is all the footage of the races from this outfit!??
holy smokes this is heated! first off if you pay your 20 bucks i don't care if you have a punt or half a mil wrapped up in a gas hog, everyone should have the same chance at the hat prizes. That being said, a couple places had "peakers" drawing the names, and that's wrong. If you got a work boat, and win or lose with it be proud of that, but don't hate the fast boys, because most, me included come to see what they can do. Now that Galen has clearly broke 70mph, can it be admitted Camel did 68.5?

@VivalaVikings LOL- I just love this three minutes of footage so much, I wanted MORE. Like an HOUR-long documentary would be good with me.

The shooting happened on Matinicus, and yes, that's Chris Young (F/V Miss Madelyn).

Respond to this video... Isn't the guy at 1:42 the one who got shot in the neck during a lobster war on vinalhaven in 2009?
