You hear that on helicopters and turbo prop engines too. Such a cool noise. Excellent video

Those are also useful in potato guns.

That’s literally what it is, just a MUUUCH bigger spark!

Tight fit at Havasu springs

I love hearing that sound everytime we stsrt engines, on every aircraft I've ever worked... These bad boys out out a few thousand (s) volts more spark than the grill ignitor does... But still very similar concept and sound... Except for a bad time when you don't hear it... I guess for both the engine and the grill situation..

Lol he like we’ll time to put it back on the trailer

Still have an awesomely terrifying fire hazard risk with this type of vessel. If I'm just running an outboard motor and have an engine fire i have a pretty good idea where in fact the fire is located.

That one is actually usable as a boat. The other... isn't.

@@prava163 how is it not usable?

@@fartsoundeffect5013 for one it has a huge exhaust in the middle of the boat. That is an extreme hazard if i have ever seen one

Yessssss me too!!

It would do more than rip Haulover. The boat would probably EMPTY Haulover.

Omm

It would own, dominate and humiliate that poor inlet.

Me too 😺

Yeah, until the rich guy shows up with his toys.

Destroyed by the high pitch and smell of kerosene from twin turbines.

Just remember my blowup boat friend that in order to get to that point speedy Jeff probably had to sacrifice an awful lot to become successful..young family growing up etc ( you can't buy that back) Wealth cannot be measured by counting money.....go enjoy your blow boat...the world is yours.

By the time he’s started it he’s through have his fuel.Knucklehead is gonna kill himself and his buddies

Yup, this bread won't numb the pain, but it'll break your fall

🤣

❤❤❤❤

And the bloke that owns that... I dont know.... 600 000 dollar boat... he definately pissed higher than anyone there that day. He won the contest, And his matching chopper, well.. he had a matching chopper!. I just hope he is a self made millionaire/billionaire because if he is,he deserves to flaunt his well deserved prosperity. If he was just born super rich and inherited his money then He probably doesn't know how really really tough the rest of us are doing it.

Yup, same with that 5x450 at the end.. So pointless but funny at the same time..

@@manicmasterofmetal2620 probably a million, at minimum

@@truthbydesign5146 yeah i was just having a stab in the dark

Nice boat probably won't last long

Lake

@@MrEazyE357 River my guy, River!! Lake Havasu (/ˈhɑːvəsuː/) is a large reservoir formed by Parker Dam on the Colorado River, on the border between San Bernardino County, California and La Paz County, Arizona. Some key words, "ON THE COLORADO RIVER!" {{{{{{{{BOOM}}}}}}}} Don't @ Me!!

@@GrinDiesel1969 You're an idiot.....I mean, you even called it by it's name in your own comment "Lake Havasu" - which is in fact a reservoir as you stated. Let me help you out dummy. res·er·voir /ˈrezərˌvwär/ noun: a large natural or artificial lake used as a source of water supply.

@@hotrodfanatic1 River

na, when you have a matching 9 passenger jet

@@cardboardboification levels to the game

Got to sell a lot of coke to afford that. lol

@@TheBeingReal Shit, if i had all the money i wasted on Coke, i probably could have both of these.

@@badass6.0powerstroke10 😆😆

Have you seen the unlimited hydroplanes run? They use the T-55 L7 turbine, about 3000 hp, they are fast! Bet that was an awesome job you had! 👍✌️

I bet you guys were at least smart enough to wear ear defenders when doing run up leak checks under the hood at 100 rpm? These dudes eardrums are probably shot by now lol!

Gotta be cartel lol P. S. Hope I'm not on a hitlist now for saying that lol

Shoot in my youth I thought my 50 horse Johnson was cool and fast lol

That boat is his as well. Not the paint scheme matches his helicopter

I wonder if he's using any fuel a fuel dock would supply. He MIGHT be running diesel in it, but Jet A is more likely.

And you're still a nobody.

Guess the owner will let his crew trailer the boat to the airfield where his helo is and fuel both at the same time..

Those are not clutches. The boat has crash boxes. What you hear are the PT's being engaged and disengaged via disc brakes on the PT shafts. You put the drives in and out of gear while the PT is not rotating, that's the whole idea behind crash boxes. There are buttons on the shift levers to engage and disengage the brakes as you shift and manoeuvrer the boat.

Sad life you must have ... Cheer up man

You and me both but it would probably just be a blur lol

Hes never had it off idle,

Idling is all he can afford. Gotta finish paying for that choppa!

Unless they have jet A I doubt it.

no

He told them to.

Do you have 40 foot oars?

@@timcrawford8744 only while is was warming up. My new 65' oars really get the job done!

Oh, of course, the advanced compilation oar length. Well done!

Competition .....sorry

@@timcrawford8744 thank you for noticing, my good man!

definitely. no money for a goot crew ;)

6 person intercom is normally used.

you try first?

oh man, that noise, can only imagine the damage years of that would do. Ha, the girls were on the more comfy and "quiter" boats

Yup, sausage fest. At least they look cool... NOT

You're not. Besides, the noise inside the boat is much less. And most have intercom systems.

That boat will have zero issues with Haulover. Plenty of MTI's, Skaters and Mystics have crushed Haulover.

Havasu Springs. I have a place in the Landing and they never came in. Bummer.

I've got more videos coming from Super Cat Fest, high speed action in multiple locations

There is no reduction box. There is a power turbine designed to spin at similar rpm as a normal V8, so about 6500 rpm. What ever reduction is there, is just the normal reduction in the drives. Your story does not add up. Usually ships that use gas generators as propulsion units, being it engines like the LM1500 or LM2500, don't need a reduction in that magnitude. Heck, even if you drove the prop straight off of the HP shaft which you NEVER do, that would be about 9000 rpm at full chuff. Normally a PT on an LM 1500 and LM2500 spin at about 3000 rpm or so, so in order for a big commercial or naval vessel to achieve useable prop speed at say 150-300 rpm depending on ship size etc. it would only need a 10:1 or 20:1 reduction. If it was a water jet propelled ship, then the PT shaft would go straight to the input shaft of the jet pump without a reduction.

Probably diesel.

its bad enuf buying one engine much less 5 ,
