When You open the boat registery site from menu you are greeted with a video clip of a blue donzi travelling at speed . Any info on this boat and where it is taken . Assume it is a 16 , with an extended drive/leg . Would love to be able to download complete video in full screen.
Thanks ace

I believe that is a clip of the famous Mighty Mouse - George Desmond's (GEOO) famous X-18. He recently sold it, but if you do a a search there have been many, many threads on the AMAZING performance he was able to achieve out of that boat over the last 6-7 years. I don't even know what the final top speed # was...but I believe it was somewhere north of 120MPH....

124 I believe, but he ran out of river. :) It is an X-18 with about 600 + ponies. It has an Arneson ASD#6 drive out back as well. http://www.arneson-industries.com/asd6.htm

If I live to be a 100, it's one ride I will never forget. 600+hp is an understatement. When Geoo took me and Baby Donzi for a ride in Sarasota 2 years ago he said the engine was capable of just over 1000hp. That day we ran 106 in Sarasota Bay with the 3 of us on board. That is what started me on my quest for more MPH. Thanks Geoo, it's all your fault:biggrin.: :biggrin.: .Lenny, Thanks for posting videos

Actually, I believe it's somewhere between 800-1000 bhp........

Thanks very much for the info . Sounds like one hell of a boat and MAN. Looks like the only protective gear he wears are goggles , assume so he can see at those speeds . Fantastic stuff.

I thought he wore a parachute vest?
Any where did Mighty Mouse go?
