Here are a couple of video links from the recent meet at Lake Catherine in Arkansas that I took using a GoPro on my 10ft Wetback “TopKick” with a 1976 Merc 25ss.  This rig GPS’s at 56.4mph.  Also is a video link of my Dads(Dave Samstag) D Class 1968 Marchetti hydroplane with my 44ci Merc 58AH.  This boat GPS’s 71mph..so far.
