The really "Old School" boating thread

I'm glad you asked that, I figured we're all supposed to know

Ridged inflatable boat. RIB. Big in England and Australia. My guess is that it's Australia. English aren't big on Mexican food, the Aussies love the stuff.

I don't think you can get away with a wing extending outside the hull in offshore here.

Well apparently you could in 1995. That is the Buzzi Buzzard that won the world B class (Sportsmans B) in 1995 at the Key West Super Boat World Championships. The driver was from England and the throttle man was from Houston.

Maybe so. That probably wasn't a APBA offshore series. Even if it was, they don't allow that shit today. Drag boat and offshore org's might.
