Frames #4--#140 shot at Baystar Race Village
Frames #141--#200 shot beneath Clearwater Memorial Causeway Bridge
THE BOATS
These are some of the fastest and largest offshore power boats in the world. The boats are equipped with F-16 jet canopies! Race teams consist of a two-person team - a driver who controls the boat’s steering and a throttleman responsible for operating up to four engines capable of producing more than 6,000 horsepower.
Extreme speeds of up to 180 mph and rough waters make it impossible for a single person to steer and operate the throttles. The best race teams hone the partnership between driver and throttleman down to a science, and incorporate the most advanced technology into their machines to generate optimum speed.
