too fast to keep his wind screen upright??????........but not fast enough to lose his shades with his side-to-side antics.....my guess boat speed 14 mph w/ a 34 mph head wind :rollside:

No idea but sure looks like he is moving with those facial expressions.

Towards the end it looks like he passes a box van in the middle of the lake..... I am guessing 90mph+

I was laughing my ass off. He is having a great time. I was curious as to how many times he was going to look backwards while traveling at that speed.

I would say 100-105. The water is moving pretty fast under the boat and the box van goes by pretty fast.

I can't say how fast he was going...I can say I would not get in the boat with him. Anybody with 2 hands on the wheel and 0 on the throttles I don't need to ride with :wink:

A friend of my ex wife has a Talon in Arkansas with twin 300's that runs around 120. We did many GPS passes at 118, so I suspect this goof is running somewhere in the 110-120 range. .02

109.5 i can tell by the wind on his cheeks. 90-100 cheeks wave and vibrate 1000-109 the flatten out and stay that way. 109-? stupid look on face eye's hurt sunglasses don't wanna stay put anymore.....
