Default Something for those with vast amounts of Money...

Looks like Mercedes is coming out with a new "cigarette" Hull boat. and with two gas-sucking mercruisers, it ought to move pretty well

"The latest AMG boat is propelled by two 9-liter V-8s sourced from Mercury Marine; combined, they produce close to a whopping 2700 horsepower.

Despite this astounding amount of power, Cigarette Racing claims the engines can run on regular pump gas, which is a good thing, since any mention of fuel consumption is conspicuously absent from the official AMG press release. Much like the price tag on the boat and the C63 Black Series itself, if you have to ask about the fuel consumption, you probably can’t afford the vehicle itself."

There are a few of these super high speed powerboats (though not as
powerful as your example) roaring around Chesapeake Bay on flat calm
summer days. Usually with no mufflers. I suppose if one's penis isn't
working, having a super ultra-high-speed, super-loud "Cigarette" style
boat that annoys everyone else enjoying the Bay is the way to go. When
they crash into another boat or flip, the news videos are interesting.

I've read about devices that open or close the mufflers on these boats
with the flip of a switch or lever. I think it is called a muffler
bypass. I wonder if the guys who do that are the richer dads of the high
school twerps I see (and hear) driving around the (usually) little Honda
cars with the big aftermarket tailpipes and no or unrestricted mufflers.

I'm sure there were cheers from the shoreline when this happened:

Conditions of the water don't look bad, and the boat was probably in decent shape, if just bought,
so I'm thinking it was the conditions and capabilities of the operator that caused the spill.

I don't think the 'tuners' to which you refer are owned primarily by 'rich kids'. The 'rich kids'
drive new Mustangs, 'Vettes, Jaguars, etc. There is a certain crowd associated with 'tuners',
especially those with flame decals all over them. There are several in Rose Hill Apartments. You
know, the place where all the MS13 folks hang out.

It's funny.. Here I am reading the comments on the news page and the
wife of one of the injured comes in telling how folks like our friend
above, comments have kept the poor child up at night crying while her
dad is in the hospital...

The group was great for a few days, why bother with the agitators?

That was a 'non-agitational' post. Good behavior should be rewarded. I think Pavlov said that. The
'poor child' should not be up at night reading rec.boats.

I'm glad no one was severely injured in the incident, but I'm not sad to see another Cigarette boat
off the water. They are good only for speed and noise, neither of which give me a thrill.

Sorry, not familiar with "Rose Hill Apartments," but apparently you are,
so perhaps you will elucidate. Don't know what you mean by "tuners,"
either. But I see a lot of the cars to which I referred lined up heading
north on Route 4 in the morning, waiting to turn into the high school
parking lot. Maybe we don't have as many rich kids in our area as you
do, because I don't see many Corvettes or Jags in the lines. I do see a
number of Mustangs, though, usually being driven by the girls.

As for the guys in the boat, from reading the news article, I'd agree
with you that it appears to be a case of operator error. Were they
showing off for the chicks on the beach?
