Nicely trimmed up, but dangerous in rougher waters. Motor is a Mercury 150 HP XR4

I wonder what the camera boat was - it didn't seem like it had any trouble keeping pace!

That’s looks like fun. But you would have a hard time finding water on the Mississippi or St Croix.

I agree Jeff, it is a part time boat. In the past, if the winds were blowing hard, I would head to the Minnesota River with the Glastron V-153, which was narrow and sheltered from the wind.
