DRIFTER_016 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 That video reminds me pretty quick why I sold my hydro many.. many years ago! About them rivets.... My buddies dad used to drag race big block powered ski boats with vee drives. He's got 130 stiches in his right leg from a blowover during one race. His parachute pulled him free during the blowover but he carved up his leg on the gunnel as he was pulled free. He was still racing into his mid sixties.
yakpiker Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 Based on the video, my guess is that, unfortunately, some Darwin awards were handed out posthumously.
