A few years ago I was in the states and I got to go for a run in that Miss America with the twin V12,s. It was awsome.
The speedboat specialists were a Sydney duo.

Re: Trivia
Well done Adam. Your question.
Riding in the Miss America can only be described as hot. We could have cruised at 80mph down the St Lawrence river in the middle of winter nude and still been warm.
The noise was deafening. My ears still ring to this day.
