Top Speeds Seen: I have seen 105 mph with this current boat and set-up. Riding with Tim Harding in New Zealand, we reached speeds in excess of 120 mph.
I would like to give a special thank you to Tim Harding and Leo Wright. These two men have been very influential in my racing development. Tim has walked me through every step of building a successful boat to driving with the confidence to win on an international level. Even though he bounces in and out of retirement frequently, I hope I am there when this man wins his Overall World Title. I need to also thank his wife, Simina, for the use of her shop and tools. These are two of the world’s most outgoing people and I am honored to be their friend.
Leo is a true crusader of the sport. His travels for the love of jet boating and racing, have taken him all over the world. Leo has opened doors for me to expand my love for boating across the globe also. Leo is a great role model not only on the river, but most importantly in life. He has left a unique mark on all of us he calls friends.
A big thank you goes out to my family. The support from my family throughout all of my ups and downs in racing has been unique. For two parents who would most definitely rather see me on the river bank, their support is very courageous. They have set aside their fears and brought about support for me to accomplish my own personal goals. Thank you!!
Could you tell me if you and Tim or anyone else from the US are going to the 2009 Worlds Marathon in New Zealand?
