Agreed I am sure Steve Curtis felt a bit pissed too as he normally drives something with 10x the power of the honda. But as Honda dont make F1 powerboats he wasnt allowed to race them in one.
I couldnt afford a F1 car and I wouldnt buy one of those bikes with no starter motor. But for 5K I have a boat thats nearly as fast as the honda one. You work it out!
