WebSep 30, 2023 · Zip Zap Power brings the best boat racing high speed action from the XInsurance Great Lakes Grand Prix on Lake Michigan in Michigan City, Indiana! Class 1, …
It Must have been fun fighting the chop of Lake Michigan. One day it can be like glass, then the next day you can have 6 to 10' waves. Not too many cats on Michigan it's deep-haul land for a good reason.
dang at 2:03 were still wedging a block of wood and a socket between the $15,000 blade and lower unit to tighten up the shaft nut. I woulda thought it would have been more technical on a $2,000,000 boat
I would ask you what else that you would you recommend using without screwing up the edges of an expensive prop, but then I look at your name and it answers my question
About 150 plus faster these are running 1300 to 2000 hp v8s all though I love the sound of a RR or Packard use to be at the races on the Detroit river in the old days before the jets
Jet drives are nowhere near as efficient as a prop, so no. Two boats of the same size, weight and HP, the prop boat will be faster. I had a jet boat and loved it, then I got a surface drive prop boat and forgot about the jet, lol.
I'ma need a W 16 for this one with aircraft WW2 style spool the Napier blower n cut down the pistons engine let 30000 to 55000 rpms ride with it 😁 hang on tight
I've never been able to understand why these boats are so big, don't get me wrong they are awesome, but cmon man, power to weight. They don't even sound turbo'd or supercharged.
Care to explain this simplistic statement? Excuse my ignorance but it sounds like you're saying if "MR XINSURANCE" didn't own an offshore racer everything I purchased out of necessity and in my day to day life would cost less??
@@GruvenHaus The money of sponsorship that MrXInsurance seeks and gains, (plus that of F1) goes to a very few people’s personal fun, and increases the prices of everything you require by sucking upwards, instead of providing decent wages.
@josephinebennington7247 So if I'm communicating with a "cost of living expert", a "sponsorship risk management expert" and a "wage expert" then what would be a decent wage for the average office worker? I know it's a vague question because your statements reek of jealousy and/or someone who has great disdain for the wealthy. My question was very exact and pointed. Why do you care about the hobby of a few rich people, are you some humanity activist? Think about how many people are employed by those "rich people", how many donations are given annually and how much good is done with their money. I can also assure you if their employees wages weren't decent the employees wouldn't be working at that business, and that business would fail..
@@GruvenHaus I certainly do not reek of jealousy, or anything else. Jealousy is actually odourless. Nor do I disdain the wealthy. It’s just what some of them do with their wealth that sometimes gets me feeling stroppy. How decent of those owners to let the plebs they so generously employ watch from a distance. While they go out in their monster and do what….? Just scream along at super high speed in straight lines, while having their backs and knees stressed on a medium that is virtually concrete.
They don’t have a typical transmission that can shift into gear while the engine is running. They use what’s called a “crash box” type trans that is way more reliable but can only shift into gear with engine off.
Finally. After MONTHS. RUclips recommends something I WANT TO WATCH
you don't like all the catvids
Shit Happens ? Funny Strange , also Funny Ha Ha
All 2 minutes of it

Thank you, nothing sounds like a high performance boat!!
you're welcome!
So many nice boats. Love the sounds of the V-8 motors.
Bonjour du Canada Greta Thunberg symphony .
I like the fact that guy who installed the prop had a calibrated elbow. I learned that "skill" in the service.
It has to be calibrated with the trusty block of wood.😆
from new zealand. absolutley beautiful wow, thank you 4 sharing.
Awesome. Would love to see those bad boys on Superior.
Thanks for the heads-up, I would love to come and see these speed demons, Cheers from Australia.
Lots of change in boats and motors since I watched the Gold Cup races many years ago in Lake Washington however the danger is still there.
Grazie per questo meraviglioso video ....Attendo con ansia i video anche di queste competizioni ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
NOW THATS A BOAT! John P.
I've always loved the bow shape of the Reggie Fountain boats!
Dude, you gotta bring back your nightly videos! Those were like therapy to me, ha!
It Must have been fun fighting the chop of Lake Michigan. One day it can be like glass, then the next day you can have 6 to 10' waves. Not too many cats on Michigan it's deep-haul land for a good reason.
Such sweet tunes.
Ask that the underwater life
Good to see the Kiwi's out there going hard as usual.
Need to have a ringtone of them running at speed
I had my boat at the Michigan City Marina for 10 years before moving to FL. Where is on a lift in the back.
Mega bucks boats, but you still need a block of wood for a prop change😊
What else would you recommend without messing up the edges of an expensive prop?
I would love to see a few 12 cylinder motors. Ferrari or lambo's. The sound alone would give me chills. 👍
Can't hide that money. We like our slow moving trains and football here in Clemson. Go Tigers!
I'm playing thru my system , absolutely awesome .
Can't help thinking that if OSHA sees this they will have all those crewmembers in fireproof suits, life jackets, harness, and lifeline...
I like the sound of the Cigar Monster!! A down looooow growl!!
Takes 2, One drives and the other is on the trottles.
Woah, what happened to dude on the left @1:00
WE HAD A GREAT TIME , AS WE ALWAYS DO THESE PAST 20 YEARS.
Just Imagine when the World Transforms to all Electric Vehicles We Wil not have too Listen to this Disgusting Beautiful Sound How Sad
NEVER GONNA HAPPEN
For real this guy on crack never going to happen@HWAYOUTALINE
The noise is the best part
A mountain high pile of sarcasm is always good TRUMP 2024!!
lol,,the Lithium Battery Explosion's will be awesome for Boat Racing👍🏼
I used to love going to the races back in the 80's. Need to take my son so he can see first hand what his grandfather did.
Top Stuff! Great viewing! Water conditions actually look like “Offshore “ not a flat water.. gotta have ocean swell! 👍👍👍🇦🇺🏴☠️
In cash I could literally afford to buy 2 props, a steering wheel and maybe 2 seats. That's it. lol.
dang at 2:03 were still wedging a block of wood and a socket between the $15,000 blade and lower unit to tighten up the shaft nut. I woulda thought it would have been more technical on a $2,000,000 boat
The only thing missing was a shade tree
Nope! What works works!
I would ask you what else that you would you recommend using without screwing up the edges of an expensive prop, but then I look at your name and it answers my question
@@Dynacologist I find it difficult to lower my IQ to your level just to converse with your kind, so I won't.
@DumbCarGuy Says the dumb car guy 🤣😂
great boats for us!
Lake Michigan?? I wonder if they could be a little more Vague when and where?
That prop install........
Fantastic Girls. I miss that here on the Great South Bay. L.I. NY
Those motors are amazing
bonjour magnifique bateaux super vidéos merci de se partage cordialement
The Huski boat seems somewhat Swedish🤠
You're correct. Huski is a Swedish Chocolate maker. They also sponsored the 2022 Indianapolis 500 winning car with Marcus Erickson at the wheel.
1:35... I thought the guy was installing a propeller onto the dock for a second there.
Drum rolls everywhere !!😊
Is it not possible to supercharge a V10 or V12? Just once I want to hear one of these that doesn't sound like every monster truck I've ever heard.
Beautiful!
I remember living in point Pleasant and seeing the Hennessy and Benihana Grand prix.
A 'My Boat's louder than your Boat' Competition?
What a Rush it must be ! Feels like your going twice as fast in boat
Aynen öyle,alışık olmayanlar binerse,veya dışarıdan yarışı izleyenler korkudan kusarlar.
@@BurakBakir-n7g I can’t read that ! I’m an American , stupid
Digging the OG Magnum!!. Beast.
How do these boats compare to a ww2 Elco 80foot class Pt boat or patrol torpedo boat with there two 1500hp Packard engines
About 150 plus faster these are running 1300 to 2000 hp v8s all though I love the sound of a RR or Packard use to be at the races on the Detroit river in the old days before the jets
The Xinsurance class 1 MTI runs fixed m6 drives as opposed to torque tubes. Curious to see how they finish the year.
what is the engine ? fabulous 😁
Digging the OG Magnum!!
Hi. What sort of area is Sunny Isles Beach? Thinking of going there this winter for a getaway.
Вот эта катера я таких ещё не видел форма судна идеальная .
So badass!!!!
The hobbit turned like as if there was…SQUIRREL…huh what🤪 what🤪🤪
dfYoung boat.... sexiest boat on the water. 100%
One prop from those boats is worth more than my whole boat and motor.$$$$$$$
Glug, glug, keep those oil wells pumping! NO ELECTRICS for me.
*Let the Sunshine In...*
Hy, WHAT MARVELLOUS OFFSHORES.
Beast
Good stuff
great 👍
Anyone find out what happened to the 1-minute guy? 1:00 Looks like he may have got a shock.
💉💉
Are things faster than a boat with 6 x 400 Mercury outboards?
Yes!
Wow…can’t imagine the $$$$ involved in these boats…my lil crappy 23’ with one 496 ci motor costs a small fortune to own and operate 😂
Sounds like the Drag Stripe
Amazing
they need to Come back to Lake Ontario...
How fast do these boats go ? They sound cool but don't seam to go fast.
Where's the rod holders?
This is music. It's going to be sad when they have to go electric.
This is pure power with the right sound,I like this Electric engine sound is boring like star trek
Absolutely awesome 👊
OH THE VANITY OF IT ALL
JESUS!!!
Nice engines. Any jet drives?
Jet drives are nowhere near as efficient as a prop, so no. Two boats of the same size, weight and HP, the prop boat will be faster. I had a jet boat and loved it, then I got a surface drive prop boat and forgot about the jet, lol.
what is the exact color of the dfYoung ? Its the most beautifull boat in the world!
MICHIGAN CITY GOOD TIMES
Don’t drop the prop champ!
Are these for bass fishing?
The real question is, are these boats or are they aircraft?
I'ma need a W 16 for this one with aircraft WW2 style spool the Napier blower n cut down the pistons engine let 30000 to 55000 rpms ride with it 😁 hang on tight
I've never been able to understand why these boats are so big, don't get me wrong they are awesome, but cmon man, power to weight. They don't even sound turbo'd or supercharged.
if you have to ask, you wouldn't understand.
Those rich guys can rent the nicest furniture girls for their decks!
Price ?
It would be great if they kept them up in Miami, instead of bringing them down here to our Keys.
Is this Michigan City, IN? Do they still do the race out of Grand Haven up to Point Betsie and back?
Yes
I actually thought it was Saugatuck or Ludington
I need to get my hearing checked after that video!
Have to, say if these monsters didn’t exist for the pleasure of a very people, the cost of living for many millions would be a lot less.

Where is Russia Zveda engines, every 5000hp???? They may be unlimited!
What else can be better sounds than theese big V 8 engines....
Me too. 😅😅😅
Any Turbine Boats?
no turbines this season on the race circuit
Sabeis el consumo por hora de estos barcos 🤔
All that $$$ and I didn't see one crew with a 'Boat Pole' to help keep the boat rash off the sides. ???
Why do the race boats have to start off with their engines in gear?
They don’t have a typical transmission that can shift into gear while the engine is running. They use what’s called a “crash box” type trans that is way more reliable but can only shift into gear with engine off.
Apparently most missed the sarcasm here
Sleeping Sound
Geil!🤙
1:53 а если бы он ключ утопил? )))
