Any of you guys heard about Ken Warby from Aus. Built his own boat, Spirit of Australia, himself. Still holds the World Unlimited water speed record @511 KM/H.......Thats Balls!!
+Hassan Althani anazing that you can travel that fast on water and very dangerous. One of my friends died in a power boat race many years ago. Flippped the craft. Died instantly. All credit to you sir. Be safe.
would have liked to seen this 20 second run in real time, just once in this 20 minute video.....seeing 244 mph in slow motion just doesn't cut it. Win for the engineers and crew of the boat, fail for the editors of this video.
This is just fuggin unbelievable. 244 MPH in a catamaran... Face was leaking watching this again at 14:18. Just a bit of realness. This great man here just annihilated all speed records in an offshore boat approaching speeds of Top Fuel Hydroplanes. Again it's just unbelievable. 100th like only by the way? This should have thousands.
The fastest boat in the world(and the driver lived to tell about it)was Aussie Ken Warby's 10,000hp hydroplane at 317.6mph at Blowering Dam in Australia in 1978. Warby is the only driver left alive.
Congrats to Hassan, Steve Curtis and the whole crew for this incredible achievement!! But they have to be glad they got the porpoising under control before they went over 200 or they might well have gone the way of Outerlimits(RIP Mike Fiore).
@@eragonjob5906 Not jealousy, Winkler has taken it upon himself to constantly harass me for perceived slights from me upon his person. I see his last post was six years ago and I haven't seen another one from him, so either he has stopped his harassment or he is no longer among us. Either one is fine with me.
Congratulations Hassan, I can imagine the stress from that run would have exhausted you and your team. One scary ride!! You may not remember me from a promotion in Australia I was setting up a few years ago, but "Port Stephens Boat Show" was the promotion, I had been attempting to set up a boat show 2 hours north of Sydney, but sadly, I ran short of pulling it together for a number of reasons. Not a big deal, there were a number of boat shows new to the industry around that time, so we didn't really need another show anyway. I seen other comments here regarding Ken Warby world record speed run, Ken Warby's new boat should be attempting to break the old record in with in a couple of weeks. The new boat should be running on the same date as the old record back in 78 and has twice the power of the old boat. Not sure what speed his son Dave will be aiming for, but the same support team from the airforce is helping out this time too. Ken is a lovely guy to be honest with you, he always says hello, loves to have a chat, is a wealth of knowledge. He used to be a famous Drag Car racer in Australia, had Jet powered drag cars, a jet powered truck which he told me about a couple of weeks ago. Your parachute problem reminded me of him telling me that he used to have a huge parachute was not big enough to stop him running off the end of all the drag strips here, as the truck was so heavy. If you google Warbymotorsport, you can see all his info and he has new videos on youtube of the new speed boat up recently after testing it. I have a video of his boat on my channel, but I made it private until after he has done his promotions and new speed run. Nice to see you are having success Hassan, keep up the good work, your boat is beautiful by the way.
even more amazing to me was the Evinrude world outboard speed record. that boat had "only" 600 hp and was capable of over 220mph. sadly it only did 186 due to hitting a duck and ruining the port stern section.
Yea one of those guys ending up dying, he was the owner of outer limits boats...after that they shortened the course from a mile to 3/4...he flipped at 188 mph RIP
filmed in the 60s how fast did Campbell go 1964 he did the same speed but you did have parachute out nice run sir thank god for FRANK whittle A what a power unit
There's one boat built in Louisiana that has 4 Lycoming T-55 turbine engines making 12,000 hp. and it's goal is to go after this record and shatter it.
AFAIK that team has not been able to test the boat properly. I think they've gone over 200 in it but I'm not real sure they have done that. That's the late great Al Copeland of Popeyes Fried Chicken fame. His son Al Jr. has been trying to work the bugs out of that boat for years to honor his father but no luck so far.
Well, I was cruising RUclips and checked this out... And, damn, I know that guy, hmm Steve Curtis? Yes! I worked for his Dad's company, Cougar Marine in Miami Shores (?) in the late 70's, maybe early 80's? Anyway I remember Steve. He was just a punk kid back then; argue about anything, get in a fight in a blink of an eye. I was an annoying know-it-all boat carpenter -- we clashed a bit, then II got canned for talking back to the office manager. I did get a couple of rides, I don't think Steve was driving, but he might have been. We were playing with a 30 foot cat built for Cougar in the Philippines, got it out in the Intercoastal and up to close to a ton. Scared the crap out of me -- you see I race sailboats... Then there was this 60 foot aluminum beast of a cat they wanted to sell to third world navies as a coastal patrol boat. They got it in the water but it wouldn't get on a plane, it had no superstructure yet and apparently needed a little weight in the bow. Solution? Get all the workers to lay down on the bow, arms over the edge so we wouldn't slide back as it picked up speed. Again on the Intercoastal, a no wake zone as I recall, somebody back in the cockpit gunned it and we were suddenly about 30 feet in the air at a 45 degree angle, gathering speed, and wake... Before she leveled off she threw a monster wake, this on a dead calm Intercoastal, lined with private homes. I watched the wake climb the seawall and wash some guy in a lawn chair across his back yard and slam him into his porch. Bet he wasn't expecting that. If you run into Steve ask him to tell you about the escapades of he chubby intern; the time he was chased into the yard by the old lady, and his aerial experience with the overhead crane and the boat bay.
Nice presentation. Great achievement! Poor quality low budget video, I think due to too much telephoto lens and not enough cameras and absence of HD quality. JIM
@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again must be the shortest documentary ever made 19 min, plus I'm sure it wasn't 244 miles per hour, that's impossible on water, probably kilometers and hour, that why they only wanted to show the boats in motion for a short period of time, like Nikola's semi truck
+Moe Moe false, as the outerlimits boats should have proved to you, a little research will bring you some insight on how many people have tried and failed to reach 200 and how many have died trying. so money is just the start, then you better have a huge set of balls, and then you better have a shit ton of experience if you don't plan on dying
hmmm boat is called qatar, driver named hassan....dont try to play it off, this boat is funded by oil money! why isnt the crew in radio comm. with the team? even race car drivers are in communication with their pit crews. how stupid is this shit
Ding Chavez every body who have been following the team know it's funded by the sport authority in Qatar. The crew are in communication at all times. Where is it stupid?

I just had dinner with Ken Warby on 3/14/18. He is going back to Australia in April to do more test runs if the weather cooperates.
The sound is awesome!
This is one of the best videos of your channel

With almost 10000hp I would've expected nothing less.
I've seen drag boats do this and more in a 1/4 mile, but rolling waves you find in the ocean can destroy one in a heartbeat.
That was incredible. I was in a boat doing 60 mph once and was scared. Props, pun intended, to the owner and crew of Qatar.
You never went to 60. That comment can only be made by a pussy that scares himself by just doing 10 mph. PUUSYYYYY gaaaaaaaayyyyy
Fun fact Missouri has more water front property than the state of California
I find it unbelievable that the crew on land are not in radio contact with the crew in the boat !!
That is just dumb.

What happened to his Warby’s sons attempt at the record ? , I am interested to know why it never went ahead , technical , financial or other ?
Pontune boat was made for rough water 😂
"The replay shows how disastrous the situation could have been..." No kidding. How?
if I had that much money, I'd invest 4" more on my own propulsion system.
Jet powered speedboat.....yes!
244 mph in slow motion that really makes a lot of sense
What are you talking about? They show the run in real time.
244 is fast period but on the water it is pure insanity!!!!!!!!!
I think the record is like 316 in a catamaran
awesome run!

Not really
Yea one of those guys ending up dying, he was the owner of outer limits boats...after that they shortened the course from a mile to 3/4...he flipped at 188 mph RIP
Still well under our Aussie KenWarby 511km/h
Very nice! Congrats.
214 3/4 calling back.
And these guys didn't believe me when I said boats go over 150 mph today lol 244 mph.

@Everett Cox and if I'm not sure about this, but I think they wound up selling the boat if they didn't store it somewhere.
I used to have a boat like that - 'cept mine was faster. And newer.
Didn't give it a dumb name like 'Qatar'. either; I called mine 'Big Bobby'.
And then the sock fell out.
And you were back to "little bobby" the sad dreamer.

Ya. Try that in the ocean with a drag boat lmfao. You wouldn't be over a hundred before it stuffed the bow and disintegrated !!!!
Totally true. And for 1/10 the funds.
Do you understand the difference in these boats ?
I would think that someone would have considered John Tomlinson to run the boat.??
respect! u put it down dude:)
You know in this sport unless its a mechanical failure , the guy with the most money always wins
What caused the porpoising? And why did it smooth out so abruptly?
Rough day!! I thought they did this early in morning on almost glass smooth water??!!
