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.

They have to be muffled going through Kent Narrows, or they'll be ticketed.

Hope you're day is spectacular!



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:

"They said it was going too fast for the conditions or the capabilities of the boat."

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.

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?

The only source I can think of would be the Rose Hill Apartments, the big apartment complex behind
the shopping center, with which I know you're familiar. That apartment complex is heavily populated
with Latinos, many of whom own 'tuner cars' or tuners.

Actually, I have referred to the MS-13 gangsters who hang out in and
around the Springfield Mall, which is a couple of miles from your house.
If by "shopping center," you are referring to the little Safeway
shopping center near your house, yes, I am familiar with it, but I am
not familiar with any apartment complexes behind it.

I appreciate the "tuner" references. I've been referring to these cars
and their drivers as boy racers, which apparently is now an obsolete
term to describe that particular car cult. A lot of the high school aged
boys around here drive such cars. The first thing they seem to modify is
the exhaust, to make the car loud. I suppose they like the attention
their exhaust systems get from the local sheriff's deputies.

At one time we had an ordinance to limit altering motorcycle exhaust pipes.
Seems to have gone by the wayside as some of the Harleys are reaching ear splitting levels. Since amalgamation in the mid 90's, the police are scarce in the old City of Halifax.



Some of the southern Maryland Harley riders are running without
mufflers. I don't know why the local deputies don't pull them over. They
should.
