imagine a newlyweds having a romantic picnic by the river bank, birds chirping and all the sudden a jet sounding boat zooms by tearing up the river at 146mph :D

Best start to any marriage that👍👍
The disruption wouldn't last long.
I walked down that river on a daily basis during lockdown, that would have been superb to see that thing hooning past. Oi, @@777RiverRacing let qt trading know next time you're doing a test run, I must see this thing in person!!
Damn I love it. Let me know when you sell the boat

Maybe after we race in 🇺🇸🇺🇸 2021👍
50 mph on the water feels like you're traveling at warp speed. This must be absolutely insane.
That’s what I was thinking holy shit 145mph 👍
Especially a narrow river...
IKR, goddamn!
Never would want to ride on that
It is.
some say he got to his destination before he even made plans to go there.
Nice invocation of Jeremy Clarkson. 😆
He definitely got there before he left to go there
Don't let Cleetus see this.
Hell yea brother!
Do it for Dale!
YEEE YEEE!
Surely we DO want Cleetus to see this? Imagine where he’d take the idea 😀
@@vernonbear He would p*ssay out just like he did on the jetamino, and just like Finnegan on his jet boat. High speeds on water is more dangerous than on land.
I’m an old man now, and I don’t experience much excitement any more, but I have to admit this gave me a bit of a stiffy.
Thank you.

It’s rush to drive 👍
@@777RiverRacing you don’t drive that, you pilot that. Amazing. Thanks for sharing.
@@dantilden3896 glad you enjoyed - next year hoping to race USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Username checks out
@@dantilden3896 I think at those speeds he's more or less just a guy giving suggestions to the machine.
I've surfed 20' makaha, parachuted, paraglided, trimmed 80' coconut trees, been married to a Korean witch, but that boat ride would scare the hell out of me and make me scream for my mommy.
That's a good 1. Especially the married comment. L O L
fuck no to the 20ft makaha surf, you fall you landing on sea urchins.
HA HA

I don't know where he's going but he got there early..
lmao
I used to have a fast motorcycle and a long commute. On moto days, I could literally sleep in an 10 extra minutes.
Whatevers alive underneath that water it just shat it's self.
Indeed, nature is rarely considered enough by humans with big engines.
remember that the next time you go swimming :)
Whatever is alive down there didnt even notice
@@user-xu9fk9pr3q
BS!
@Da Sheat
If you think that than the a fish will easily beat you at any awareness test.
145mph on a not exactly glass smooth surface, that takes some doing.... Would love to see a top speed run sometime.... Awesome boat mate! 👍🏻
Check out our other footage 👍
More chop, more air, less drag
@anonymous Better chance to flip. Take it out to the ocean and let's see that speed.
dudes just gliding at that point
Perfect trolling setup , relaxing Sunday morning 🙂
Nice, almost as fast as my 🚣🏻♀️
Lmao
What breaking strain braid would you recommend for trolling at 140mph?
For flying fish perhaps🤔😄
This is the coolest thing I've seen on youtube in quite some time.

@@777RiverRacing Subscribing now !
Would love to see a flyby at this speed!
I too have a boat. It has a 70 HP Johnson motor...
I am pretty sure yours is faster...but my speedo is broken...
Great post. Laughed out loud for sure.
Lol
Might be a close race
😂
I too have a fast boat... tuned 25hp on the tiller. Never had a speedo, goes faster without. Wanna race? 😂👍
A few years ago I did one 144 miles an hour down an Australian Highway (233kph) and it was frightening how the hell anyone could do that on water is mind boggling
for real, water is too sketchy
*looking confused in german* but yeah, water is a different story!
3 hours ago i did one 170 miles an hour down a german autobahn and it was not frigthening, but yes, i dont want do that on water.
@@npc4324 You are desensatized.
@Trippa german roads are not that smooth and nice at 170 mph, haha, but i agree
I just wanna see a side view of this thing’s rooster tail
Its like the rhine speedboats easy about 60meteres of pure power spit out.
Imagine fish chilling and taking life easy and then this flies right over the living room... 😁
Clicked start. Thought it was extremely fast. Then it accelerated.... Jeez that's not your ordinary fishing boat.
Imagine trolling! Better yet what if you caught something. That something might be dangerous😳
The difference between 124 and 144!! Really noticable increase in the rate of riverbank passing by!!
@bob roberts someone told me about 1000 per horse power....
We seeing in the 160mph now - it’s getting quick !!!!
Same thoughts
@@777RiverRacing when you bring up a new clip?
146 mph 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱!!!!!
146 on street scares me even though I've had my trackhawk up to 168, but on the water in a tight river with blind curves and ducks........insane! :)
in germany you would be overtaken at 150 mph by family estate sedan full of kids and their mother late to her kids football game lol
Oh my face hurts, From smiling. Hey thanks for sharing 👍
When you go out fishing and then remember you forgot your weed back in the truck...
Lol
Ha! True dat brotha!
best comment ever.
Lol!
😂😂😂😂 love the name btw
Wow, that was insanely cool! 145mph and pulling 0.5g in corners at 130+, you've got balls!
Cheers - we’ve seen in the late 160’s now 👍
This is not balls . To do this you have to be APSOLUTELY INSANE !
@@cocosloan3748 All together now, guys: "COME ON YOU SONS OF BITCHES, DO YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?"
--Sergeant Daniel Joseph Daly @ the Battle of Belleau Wood.
That is a serious machine, savage acceleration.
Been on a sea doo that did 72mph on a flat calm lake. This is insane speeds for the water, it makes all sorts of diffrent splash noises when it gets over 100mph it's like skipping a rock across a lake.
And just when you think that you're the fastest boat on the lake, a Thai longtail with a tuned Hiace diesel flies by.
With hotties sporting spectacular funbags bobblin and bouncin all around.
the fastest guys run cummins or isuzu mostly 4bt cummins tho they gobble 120 psi of boost
Dream on
GOLD! lmao
*tuned Cummins diesel with four turbos hanging off it
Like to see a passenger that has never been on this ride and see his heart meter on screen lol
That was a Hell of a ride!! Thank you! Now I got to get one of those!👍😃👍
😎🇺🇸👍 I was getting ready for it to take off some very serious speed there
Imagine being on the shore just enjoying the peace and quiet doing a little fishing and then this dude rockets by crossing your line yanking your pole outa your hand all while your still trying to process what just happened
Best comment yet!
Then notice you crapped yourself too.
Going that fast it would just cut the line if anything lol
Absolutely stunning stuff guys, what an adrenaline rush it must be to be on board.
That acceleration was insane. Never seen any boat that went like that !!!!
Living your best life my guy!
Equally satisfying would be to see the fuel gauge meter display next to the speedometer display to demonstrate the Sea-Saw effect..!!! :D
Draft at idle: 14”
Draft at WOT: 0.14”
i know this is funny but can you please explain why?
nmnmnm... the boat is going so fast that the draft on plane is 1/100th of what it is when displacing (going slow). The boat is going so damn fast that barely any of the hull is in the water. WOT=Wide Open Throttle
@@fatboyrowing lmaooo. love it thank you for the explanation
Wouldn't that be *Draft at WFO: 0.14"* ? And, Draft at idle: ahhhh, honey, this is nice, could you get me another beer. Draft at WFO: H..H..H.o,,,.llll,,,y shhhh...i,..,i,,.,.t!!!
I do those speeds in cars.
But to do it on water...
I'm more than impressed 👍
Dump some popcorn in the intake! We've seen it at truck pulls, Flaming Kernels!
Gotta love the turbine power acceleration from 80 to ... Spectacular!
I’ve been on a cigarette boat doing 90-95mph and was blown away by who terrifying it was. That looks horrifyingly awesome
"I know this river well, gotta slow down to 123mph for the turn before the steep hill"
Nice relaxing cruise speed ! 😁
When the girl down the river says her parents aren’t home
HAAAAAAAAAAA - best comment I've seen in years
Then your on the next obituaries list lmao
Not many videos leave my jaw agape-this one has my jaw on the floor.
What a machine.
Cheers 👍👍
Wow! Boat appeared stable at those speeds. Not putting down anyone, the guy who built/owns this boat has his act/s##t together. Very cool! Thanks! 😎
Cheers
So fast 💨 dude!!! 146mph 😲
Love the speedometer display. Nice boat.
Gopro FTW!!!
Bob: "Hey Jim"
Jim: "Yeah?"
Bob: "I gotta run up to the bait shop and get some minows....be right back"
had the pleasure of riding a jet boat last time i was in queenstown - this puts that experience to shame... absolutely mental
Woooooweee- that was exhilarating! Thank you sooo much for posting- what a fun ride to go on!
I luv’d my boats, just let go of last hallet couple years ago, miss just taking it out-70 was max for my little 21’ and to watch this? Yeehaa!
Thanks again!
Our pleasure!
Greetings . Thank You so much for posting this . Awesome video . I've close to a couple hundred hours going over 150 to 195 on a super sport bike . This is the only thing I've seen that brings me back to those times . What fun . We have lived more in 15 minutes then many will in their Whole life time .
IAMREIKI
How true 👍
@@777RiverRacing Thank You to All of The Support Team that make this possible .
Totally outrageous buddy. You've got balls and guts!!
I like thrills just like the next man, but you were skint-back in that river with zero margin for error. Wow!!!
My jaw hung open the entire time I watched this. Insane.
Respect! That's some real speed in that size of boat, Brass Balls.
That Guy Oh
NOT KIDDING MY HEART IS POUNDING!!!
WOW WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THAT'S INTENCE
and the speedometer is a great extra.
Scott Krieman
Cheers 👍
that is way faster than I initially expected....you must have balls the size of church bells...more power to you
That would be a hell of a ride.
This is some high tech James Bond stuff, wow
Wow, that is one fastboat.
Outstanding! What App do you use to overlay the speed indicator?
Perfect trolling boat!
How's the serenity? So much serenity ...
I've ridden a motorcycle at 155 mph. This boat is WAY scarier than that
Lol my bike did exactly the same speed, hit rev limiter at 240km/h I would do that daily between the city and town I lived in but that boat would be 5 times the rush. Water can be unforgiving
@@canonphoto the road can be a unforgiving place as well.. sounds like u need a faster bike
155 on the water is way more dangerous.
So many blow overs in unlimited hydroplane racing
@@kassenz but that thing sits on the water beautifully at that speed
That rooster tail is insane!💪
You my friend are absolutely a speed freak gotta love it
Thank God for Rich people, without them things like this wouldn't exist.
Peter Lucas
Built with good old Kiwi number 8 wire 👍
I take it youve never seen the 500-800 bhp turbo charged diesel narrow boats from Thailand? Thank me later..😂
@@777RiverRacing yeah let's not kid ourselves. Great achievement but jet engines ain't free. If you spent less than 50K-100K NZ you did really well.
@@Anax100 it’s a time ex engine (out of hours for flight) so not worth much if you can find the right deal. Cheaper than a big block 👍
@@k1ortia Are those the ones where the guy is on a little fishing boat thats steered Tiller style ? I saw that! Crazier than this guy IMO.
When you want to be first at that best fishing spot on the lake.
Turbine powered bass boats?
With a turbine like this, all fishes in the lake will be breaded and ready to fry
Impressive. Love to ride in this just once. It would be on my bucket list of items to experience.
Awesome and Insane, Knight Rider on Water.. 👍
Man it's gotta suck going back all the time to get your hat..lol..
thx youtube recommendation, now i have a crush on jet boats
Jet boats rule!!!!😂😂😂
Thanks so much for that awesome video!! Got my heart pumping.
Love to see footage from the bank as she goes by!!
Reminds me of the Hydro Thunder arcade game.
Yesyesyesyes, that was this best
That was the best
Jesus. Just the wake alone is impressive lol
Nice run my man!
Holy Shit, Maynard! That thing literally flies. Hooweee! Whole lotta fun!
Insanely fast, smugglers would definitely kill for this, and coast guards must hate this bullet ship as hell.... Congratulations for this unconventional masterpiece
It’s not an ocean boat,
it’s a river boat.
A 23 foot boat wouldn’t carry much and not much range with the fuel consumption-
flat bottoms aren’t much for blue water.
Container ships carry huge loads all the time and you can’t search them all.
Not glamorous but much more effective.
Those and the semi-subs.
New Zealander’s really have the whole boating thing down pat

At first I thought, "damn, thats a pretty fast boat" Then he floored it. :O
Damm dude what a beast and to hold it that long at that speed
I know this video is a couple years old. But it would be really cool to see a map tracking your course. I'm curious to see the kind of distance traveled while you're pinning that throttle.
You can see the speed and the elapsed time. It's super easy to calculate distance. It would be a very close estimate.
I can imagine it passing over a large fish, and the fish saying, WTF was that !
You're an absolute madman.
Wow! That's awesome!
Waiting for this to get recommended in future😁
since this is a jet drive maybe an afterburner could give additional boost from the back kind of a dual propulsion jet drive until a certain speed second stage afterburner
thanks for building this its been a thought of mine for years the start up sound of a turbine at the dock would definitely turn heads lol
I would bet lots of money that this turbine engine came from a decommissioned helicopter or generator set. While not impossible, an afterburner would greatly add to mechanical complexity and maintenenace.
@Pandacat 666 that would be neat, I imagine the anglers on the water wouldn't be as amused as you and I 🤣
Just the thought of it made me crack up and I`m dying here..."Afterburners: Why not :P".
Your are LOCO ESE!!! god bless your soul, keep safe!
Wow, that was intense!
First time I think I’ve ever sworn out loud watching a boating video. Stunning stuff. How much on the edge is the boat trimwise at that kind of speed? Looked pretty damn stable!! How much drive and adjustment is needed as the speed rises and fuel mass burns off? Guessing it’s a surface drive rather than an outdrive for that much power! Amazing. Thank you for sharing! Edit. Just realised it New Zealand so jetboat I’m guessing eh?
Ah just spotted on your channel pics there canard wings up front. Stunning.

Cheers - it’s a weapon!!!
It’s real stable at high speed - it’s a jet boat that we race on rivers - check out some of our other footage 👍👍
Holy shit that was fast wow

That....... Was terrifying...... It is unreal how fast that boat was going..... And how quick it got there... that is what they mean by "hauling ass"..... What an awesome ride you guys have there.....
Uh....that's insanely cool!
a 2000 horsepower engine mounted in a hull....epic!!! Raging inferno at 200kph on the water...
that is just plain nuts, an amazing piece of footage regan, and yes great sound with no commentary or music, turn up the bass, turn up the volume and listen to the china rattle. almost equal audio impact of sr-71 takeoff from okinawa video. you simply cannot beat the chest pounding earthquake rumble when you turn up the wick on a turbine. thanks
looking at the speed tracker this is only a portion of the full run, does a video of the full run exist of if not can you put it up please. regards Richard
Glad you enjoyed - Check out our other footage. 👍👍👍
On the water at that speed. I’m impressed😍😍😍
that's a pretty good motor - runs good and smooth
That was INSANE! Amazing how stable your boat is. Im wondering how you know for sure that nobody is coming the other direction or going the same direction for that matter! There is so much that can go wrong and the consequences are certain death at that speed.
Speed doesn't kill... it's the rapid deceleration at the end that does it. ;)
As crazy as it looks, we're very calculated in what we do - Safety first
@@777RiverRacing
Not if he jumps super hard at the last second lol
Was thinking the same, but nice job guys🎉
BTW, he isn't so much steering this...
He is aiming it.
So damn cool.
AwfulWarlock cheers
Steering is aiming.
Wow! Looks fun and scary at the same time
Love to be on this ride I have the need for speed...thanks for sharing this ausome ride
