Would have liked to hear it fire up at the dock and hear it idle for the first time. You make a beautiful 30 minute movie about a million dollar boat and you play 2 cent canned music over those engines. Not everything needs a sound track.
It was definitely a miss. Engines firing for the first time should have been included, but nothing was staged here. We captured everything in real time and this was something that was just missed. Appreciate the feedback though! Hope you still enjoyed it.
@@obtuseangler768 appreciate the feedback. We missed that part when filming and the helicopter drowned out the engine noise. Hopefully you still enjoyed it!

These mercury engines were developed from mercurys involvement with the corvette ZR1 in the early 1990s. Mercury, Chevrolet and Lotus built a four cam small block but no one company held a patent so mercury ran with it. Very happy to see Monster sponsoring the most epic form of racing
As the story goes, Lotus designed the LT4 heads. GM already had the small block. Offered in C4 ZR1's and 1996 GrandSport models with manual. Where Merc made their most recent mistake is not developing the LS line. You do not require a big block to make 1,000 hp these days. By not doing so, they CREATED this clamp-on outboard sillyness which they already owned. Devious marketing on their part, but now Ilmore is in the LS powered marine game. Anyhoo, I love that they are not using slower M6 drives. I'm sure mercury was not happy walking out of that meeting...
Awesome video... I am one of the officials for P1. My daughter and I work the crane area. That was where we saw the boat for the 1st time. The MCON people are tremendous people, they will do Skater proud I'm confident of that.
Extremely informative and well done. Speed On The Water and ScrapYard have proven the interest exists for quality video programming. MCON is credit to the sport, to the class, and to Monster Energy. I look forward to watching the progress, and the Wins! Go get 'em boys!
It's always a personal preference when building a high-end performance catamaran. I've had 2 so far built for me. They were a pleasure to work with. Pete will always give you his best product. The Dinners with him are a pleasure too. Thanx Pete.
Awesome awesome documentary! This is all us small guys dreams and obsessions. This right here makes you feel like you’re in the moment with them along the journey. Well done everyone!
That was absolutely an awesome documentary to watch! Efforts like these, both the build journey and the documentation of it, are what’s going to make performance boating as big as it’s ever been… awesome job!!!
Great Story & Mission! Beautiful boat, awesome sound!! Number 1 costs alot of blood, sweat & green. But with sponsors like you have, it gives you the edge you need to🏁! 👍👍👍
I've kind of lost interest in this stuff, but I saw the thumbnail and had to watch it! Amazing job by everyone involved, especially given the timeline and setbacks (which are inevitable). I'm not going to lie, I got serious goosebumps watching the boat get up on plane for the first time!!! Best of luck to the entire team tomorrow!
OUTSTANDING VIDEO! A truly superb job done by ALL that participated in the production of a documentary that shows JUST WHAT IT TAKES to produce a potential Class 1 winner (time will tell) for the new OffShore 2023 Class 1 season. Have attended (so far) 2 of the 2023 Races- Cocoa Beach & Sarasota, with plans for near term 2 more, this coming Sep. (St. Petersburg, then Clearwater), before deciding whether to plan on season ender at Key West (expensive to travel to, even for a Florida resident like myself), but have become a HUGE MCON Racing fan, thus am hoping for continued success for Myrick, Tyler, Jake, Craig and others of the GREAT MCON Racing team. GO GUYS (and associated Gals) of M CON!!
It’s really been a long time sense there has been a traveling off shore power boat racing group and where I’m from we use to live In Galveston,Texas it was always special to see , I say the last time I remember seeing one even Red Adair had boat in race that should say how long ago it was . I’m glad Mercury has come as far it has and would like to see what becomes of the motors in the salt water compared to older type that were always a pain
I miss the sound of these things in southampton. You could here them miles away and what a noise to grow up to. Hopefully my kids will get the same experience one day
@@speedonthewater The Black Diamond MTI owned by Derek Wachob. Is a race boat and runs 180+ mph when running race fuel. However he mainly runs Poker Runs with his Team Black Diamond. It's 100% race boat !
@@Bendan565 LOL, Better do some history research on Derek and Team Black Diamond ! It's a racing boat Period ! When that one can do 180+ let me know ! Until then, it can't keep up with the MTI Black Diamond ! Yeah it's a Racing Boat !
The problem with spec engines is there's always someone who can buy and dyno 20 of them. Spec engines have never eliminated costs at the higher levels of racing. If anything they've increased it.
OK Monster...work some of your majik on the LIVE FEED of the Actual Race. You want Top Notch recognition of P1 racing you need a quality Live feed. Yesterday sucked.
I have grew up always wanting to be able to do that I always love the racing boats I had a friend that hauled one around for a guy the would park it at my shop and lost a contract with a company because they thought I owned it so crazy because people are jealous
A message to the guy who said he had "..never rigged a class1 boat before."... If no one has told you that you yet that you have thyroid issue... you have one. I had the same issue when I was in my mid 20"s. Serious stuff if not dealt with. Be well!
My uncle use to race offshore power boats in Miami Dick Riddle was his name and he raced donzi and cigarette Don aranow also was racing then he would take me out and you had to flex your knees as you jumped the waves and worked the throttle open cockpit
I RAN an SR 311 FORMULA 1989 twin 454s 365 HP out of OCEAN ESTATES Key largo Fl. Lots of my friends ran SKATERS out of my price range. I have a video of the boat the Day It was delivered { Good Friday Maiden Voyage ] 11 years of Yippy Ki O Ki A
Turbines are insane that's a fact but nothing beats the sound of pistons firing. When unlimited hidroplanes went to Turbines I lost interest and the now that they are in offshore I still am driven to the V8's. Nothing compares to the sound of high performance pistons engines.
Just one of the many reason people are switching to outboard. If this had been an outboard installation with four 400R's or similar they'd be done inside of a week instead of a month.
…and they’d be a whole lot slower. With quad outboards More weight high on transom instead of forwards and lower. More drag from the underwater units, compared to surface drives. Less prop choices fir the conditions. More to go wrong with 4 small vs 2 large units. Easier to work on inboards and customize cooling intakes etc. quad outboards are for Haulover posing. In the smaller power classes, twin outboards are king.
"Ok Miss Geico, you are go for throttle up.." I kinda miss the screaming jet turbines, and the V12s. I was lucky enough to have a ride in a P1, and my kidneys didn't thank me for the experience. It's great that sponsors like Monster are supporting this class, and hopefully that'll attract more money and coverage. That seemed to kill the class last time, but now there's more coverage available via TV or streaming, I'm hoping it'll get more people watching. It always made me sad that despite the UK having a proud tradition in offshore, it rarely got any interest from our TV channels. Then again, I was told one of the challenges with covering offshore is the camera helicopters couldn't keep up.

Once she got the air under her; away she went. Keep your boot into her and let her breath that clean air. A beautiful boat. Good luck

Nice piece! Would have been nice to hear that first fire up even though the 1100s are pretty quiet! Hell of an effort.
Would love to see it up against the " Black Diamond " !
Black Diamond isn't a raceboat but they could sit next to each other at a dock.

The song at 22:48 is Let 'em Know by S.O. Its a jammmmmmmmm

Pretty sure I seen this boat today 😊

I'm bulding rc cat Zonda and it's very intresting to see how the real cat born. Try to reach 100 km/h and more, wish me luck!
Sounds fun
Just past y’all in Georgia!
Freaking Awesome!!!
I'll just take that car @15:50 !

Where can I watch the racing in the uk?
Looks bonkers!
Luv it
Thanks, you can watch most races via livestream, but for you locally, check out this group: www.ukopra.co.uk/
I would have thought there would be more carbon-Kevlar in the hull.
I wanted to see the cockpit.
I hope i'm not the first to say - this boat looks so much like an RC boat. Possibly the other way around?
Ur the first now beat it

Anyone know how much one of those 1100 motors costs new and complete??
170,900 USD
5 + mil all said and done ?? ... prolly. GOD Bless
Yeah who knows...all-in full race budget, crew, equipment, etc., probably a good guess.

What is the name of the song that starts at 8:00, shits a banger
So this is why the price of my green monster energy drinks went up😂
No that would be Mr. Joe biden
Is it legal to use Sharrow propellers in Class 1?
Sure, if you want to go slow. They use surface piercing props. Less drag.
anyone know if there’s a way to set trim on that drive type?
Sure there is ! All racing boats have to have trim to compete . choppy water will kill a boat with out trim
Why not Mercury M8?
Are turbine boats a different class?
Yep and there really aren't any turbines racing at the moment
Am i the only one who winced slightly when hes said "we are hoping it will really take off"?
29:35 Yo video editor / audio guy turn the fuckin music down we dont care we wanna hear the engines! jesuss
motori? benzina v8?
