Funnily enough, no, didn't feel the need to!

At the trim, and tab settings she was at, 65/66 was about as quick as it would go. I'll post another vid of her (Angela) topping 70 for ya soon.

Yes JW, a nice grin, especially when we came upon the Red Jet ferry wash flat out!

It was a good day for Lady Powerboaters. (Scrapheap Challenge connection)

Its good quality video. Try freeze frame, and read the dials and you can see the speedo is fluid filled or got a really bad leak.

No, shot it with a Canon Ixus 60 snap camera in video mode. not bad really.

This one is of course a compressed .WMV version of the original .AVI. The original is quite a bit clearer. (and a ferkin lot bigger! IRO 150 meg, instead of the 12 of the wmv)
