The boat consumes SO much fuel that it actually has to float in it's own fuel supply. The entire lake you see there is just a giant, open-air, fuel tank, and the boat has inlet grills on the bow that just suck the fuel in and consume it, kind of like how most boats suck in water for cooling.

This boat is called the Miss America VIII and was build in 1929 to be the fastest boat on planet earth. It is fitted with twin V16 Miller engines that combined deliver approx. 3.600 horsepower.

Humans alone aren't the only cause of all the heat! The earth is warming up by itself and we are helping but it will get warmer as the years go on even without us as the sun continues to shine into earth and the movements of the earth and sun getting a little closer and the moon drifting further apart. Volcanos will become more active in the future also as it gets warmer and all of the ice melts on the poles and the water rises all across the globe.
What's even crazier is that it seems to be the exhaust gas pushing down the boat, must be in the idle position during the start up (no water moving at the back of the boat).

@miksedk Yes, but 2 is also the largest number of fools likely to willingly climb into this beast at any given time. Any additional space is given over to the balls of said fools.
I bought a 23' boat, built in the 50's, for Howard Hughes. It was equipped with a 1710 c.i. Allison V-12 with a 3:1 overdrive running a 15" prop (best I recall). I bought it in the late 70's, and the beautiful mahogany hull had deteriorated to the point of no return. He was going to use it in ocean racing, but 6 months later they outlawed anything over 1000 c.i. So, he used to fly around Lake Tahoe in it, scaring the heck out of everyone. The boat haf two seating areas, one in the back and one midships, where the steering was. The engine was between the 2, and was covered. The only indication of what lurked therein were the 2 8" exhaust pipes coming out of the transom. Because of the gearing, he had a little Morris Minor 4 cyl. engine hooked up by V belts to the prop shaft so he could get in and out of the harbor's 5 MPH zone, before starting up the Allison (with inertia starter) and tooling up and down the lake at 125 MPH. It must have been quite a sight. It would have been nice to restore the boat, but it was beyond repair (without a million $!!). I bought it for the engine, which still ran fine (must to the chagrin of some neighbors, and the enjoyment of others, when I started it in my shop).
Like everything back in the late 70's, it was a project that didn't quite get off the ground. It was to go into a custom built Sanger picklefork hydroplane. We had designed and made the mold for the V-drive case, but the gas crisis of '78 (or thereabouts) killed the project, and I had to sell it all. The engine had custom stainless water jacketed exhaust headers. The person who bought it from me never did anything with it all, and it just sat in his shop. I moved out of state (CA) in 1981, and it was still sitting there. I haven't heard or seen it or him since...I'd love to have it back, but a lot of time and many years have passed since, and it wouldn't have been a practical thing to do. Best laid plans, and all.
That is awesome, been around and worked on some very big engines in my 37 years of wrenching. What I have learned is any time you have a pony motor or a secondary starting platform. You are dealing with some serious horse power and unhindered torque numbers. I would love to hear both of them doing the work.
@@gregoryrobb2695 yes they are kind of like a torque converter but with air that winds it up... although now I come to think of it, maybe it isn't an air starter as I cannot hear any air exhausting from it... so yes it does sound more like a kinetic (inertia) type :)
Because of the amount of fuel consumed by both engines, the boat never leaves the dock and has two permanent fuel lines that are connected to a tanker further up the dock. For this video, only one line had been installed. The other line is currently being mounted to the dock. Stay tuned!

They use allot less gas then people think. These burn something like 30 gallons an hour. In an airplane (which is what these are from) that's going 270-350 mph. So they get about 10 to 15 miles per gallon in car terms.. About the same as an SUV.

If you lose 1 engine at full throttle, I bet the other side's exhaust generates enough thrust to capsize the boat
If it's built right each engine will spin opposite of the other, countering the torque
Nice ride breathing in exhaust fumes in your face
Hey Dad, Today I saw a giant pair of engines that had a boat built around them.
Bro floors it.
"DO A BARREL ROLL"
Bro didn't buy a boat equipped with Twin Engine. He bought Twin Engine and equipped a boat to them.
This is the definition of, "Just Because!!"
😂😂
Just the torque from the engine makes the boat rock. 😄
*earth spin
That's just enough boat to make the engines float.
Neighbors just love this guy 😂
Because of the amount of fuel consumed by both engines, the boat never leaves the dock and has two permanent fuel lines that are connected to a tanker further up the dock. For this video, only one line had been installed. The other line is currently being mounted to the dock. Stay tuned!
😂😂😂😂💥💥💥
("Sgt.J."). "Yeah... If the Canadian Navy Supplies the Fuel.⛽ and, A paycheck. Maybe an Anti Drug smuggling boat. vroom! Lol. Enter that Lady in the Hot Rod. And, Boat Shows. That HAS to be worth at least 1 Trophy?🏆👍✌️🕊️
They use allot less gas then people think. These burn something like 30 gallons an hour. In an airplane (which is what these are from) that's going 270-350 mph. So they get about 10 to 15 miles per gallon in car terms.. About the same as an SUV.
About correct,,, forgot the extra fuel pumps
Lmaooooo bro this comment killed me😂
I’m sure everyone at the dock just loves this guy.
Gotta love that inertia starter.
Listen to that thing purr. The timing is set perfectly
I thought it was a church organ in a boat until it started up. That's mental.
That is absolutely absurd and ridiculous
...and im totally down for it!
Take up knitting !
It's on point just one alone would be scary
This is the boat they needed for the opening scene of the "Italian Job"
😂
the opening scene of the italian job is a man driving a lamborgini muria down a windy cliffside road into the front of a digger bucket what does this boat have to do with that exactly?
@johnsmith-nl3js (2003) italian job. The opening scene is in Venice, where they have to escape by boat.
More like in crank when he needed shock 😂
@@jpen1964 oh dear i was talking about the real italian job movie not the dodgy noughties remake!!
Bro needed a phamatic flywheel to start these bad boys up
That engine deserves a real boat.
It IS a real boat, not plastic crap or factory metal
😂, yeh that boat can't truly handle all that engine
Those engines*
Yes, preferably a submarine or destroyer.
Exactly!!! Why would you put all that in boat of that size?
Bro really woke up and said fuck it I’m going to drop a million on a speedboat
Boomers be like "I worked at a toilet factory for 2 weeks back in my day and bought this boat"
@@ShnierpiffleGen z be like what is work and I'm offended
@@frankbasile3662true im a gen Z tradie, but we had this 21 year old guy quit within 2 hours because his mom was concerned about workplace conditions💀

when a game lets you customise as much as you want
Boat ❌ spaceship ✅
"Sir you have a boat on your engines"
🤣🤣🤣
Even the torque from one starting rocked the boat
Rock the boat (don’t rock the boat baby).
I literally just said the same thing and scrolled down then seen your comment. Great minds😉
Same the Torque Roll is REAL..
Imagine How much left Rudder you would need to maintain a Straight Line because of the Prop Walk..
💪👍🤪 That Would Be A WILD RIDE INDEED..❤
@@vince38curious2probably one runs clockwise and the other counter clockwise.
Starting them both at the same time would probably tip it over...
Damn grandpa out here with the horsepower
That's Seahorse
I'm not sure he is that old really.
@@ThunderPantz01 I assume 😂
Definitely would love to see this go through the canals of Italy
