Those Later Ficht motors were lush ( the BRP ones not OMC) and sounded so sweet with open exhaust.

If they ever come up for sale well worth thinking about.....

You are right, that's my old P23, but the video was created by the current French owner who is racing it. I had to smile a little bit when I have seen the title "Phantom 23 - Steve Becker"...

82 mph really

I think they use km/h in France, having said that it does look more than 50.95 mph but 82 mph ?

The GPS at the end says 132 KMH and that equals 82 mph, a 225HO should be around 250HP and it's definitely going more than 53mph so maybe on one run with a fast running river giving them a little push?
