      Potato potato, tomato tomato, they are both cats and they both have tunnels, what it isn't is an OPC (outboard performance craft)

      Unkle, who are you? I'm Paul Upton-Taylor the new guy to the Ospreys from Electra, I'm the one with the funny beard and BRG/yellow or tigerstriped cats. See you Sunday?

        we actually have 3 builds of this hull on the go so watch out for more action soon !
        Do you know who shot the high speed video and what camera that is? That high speed is fantastic! Is it a "consumer" grade camera or an expensive professional camera?

        those things run fantastic! Thank you for posting this.

            Yes the video is shot using a Fuji HS10 consumer camera, It is cheaper than most entry level DSLR's and as you can see shoots quite nice high speed video!

            it shoots High Speed Movie at 60/120/240/480/1000fps

              Sorry for the highjack, but what speed was that mono shot at? I have been looking for a camera that is in the $500 or under range that would do good video as well as photo's, high speed is wanted also.

              Found the fuji right now for $400 to $430 delivered, about $450 with a memory card.

              After data loggers, high speed video is going to be instrumental in getting boats to go faster I think. They are now going fast enough that it is hard to see what is really happening as they corner or go down the straights. With the clarity of that video, you can see the hull riding detail, the entry fo the prop and water on the rudder. That is incredible.
