These big boats visited Ocean City MD last weekend for an awesome event. The Miss Geico is by far my favorite, powered by two helicopter turbines it puts out nearly 4,000 HP. It also runs on biodeisel and is reportedly the fastest boat in the country.

Here is one boat that had a damaged hull and had to beach himself in order to avoid sinking.......no injuries

The boats cruise around 130-140MPH and hit 160MPH or more.
