                The record was set with a wood/composite outrigger designed and built by Tyler himself. I do not know how many riggers Tyler has built, tested, destroyed etc. in his quest for the top record - but it has been a bunch. For those xxxx who think building a record-breaking SAW boat is just sticking a lot of power in a boat and pulling the trigger..........think again.

                  Fantastic, Tyler! What a tremendous amount of dedication you put forth to accomplish this world record.

                  Ralf-Great work on that mono record, too! That boat looked silky smooth out there on the water.

                  To all of you guys that attended this 5 day event, and for those that made it happen, congratulations! What a historic event.

                    Mere words are inadequate to convey the jubilation that accompanies the act of finally besting the former "worlds Fastest FE Boat" record which was last set in 2006. For years, Tyler has hand-built contenders and tried over and over again in spite of thrown prop blades, fractured drivelines, blown motors, esc's, batteries, and horrendously destructive crashes, all the while exhibiting under these circumstances a rare display of positive attitude and sportsmanship.

                    This time, after Five Days, and at last light, it HAPPENED, and the celebration commenced




                    screen shot a little out of focus, but on the right you'll see the 142.xxxmph & 143.xxxmph times
