Sometimes I Think That if Aliens Visited us They Would Not Survive the Knowledge Exchange.
Not one, not two, not three……but… EIGHT ENGINES!
Wow… got enough outboard motors there?
‘Merica.
Uhh…except this was in England?
It sounds weird saying ‘Land.
By the by, where does it say that it was from England? I must be missing something here.
It was a drug running boat that went between England and Europe through the Channel. It’s not said on this post, but the picture has shown up before on other sites with the full story. Snopes is the best one to look at for it…
Thank you, good chap.
And how do you think this American boat got to England? The motors, duh.
God, nobody’s even paying attention – it’s like talking to babies.
Is that enough motors? When you’re smuggling several hundred kilos of drugs, you probably don’t want to go slow.
2000 HP … Easy!
HOLY S**T! 2000 HORSEPOWER!? That thing’s a f**king dragster!

This must be what my dad had in mind all those times he told me I could be replaced by an outboard motor.
KNOWLEDGE!
you sir, WIN
where this boat came from:

drug running ohhhh yeah… mad funny article hahaha
What was that again about ” ‘merica ” ???
You missed the reply button.
There’s no such thing has too much speed
Ludicrous speed!
“They’ve gone to plaid!”
Ha! how pathetic! This pales in comparison to my Zodiac with NINE(9) outboard motors! Some say i was mad! some said that a Zodiac was too small to accommodate that many outboards, but i showed them!
That man at radio shack said i was mad! But whos mad now? Muhahahahaha!!
probably Colombia, actually, because its a drug-running boat. they add a ton of motors to try to outrun the coast guard. the coast guard calls them “go-fasts.”
Since you missed not only the people above stating its England, but also the links to the snopes article and apparently when this was on There, I Fixed It.
It was built by an English company who were selling them as low radar signature very high speed water craft.
Why would you want that? the 42 foot fountain with quad 350s does over 80? artical says the boat pictured runs 60-70 mph. and that looks like a drug smuggling boat
well, at least ONE of us survived…Er, um (Looks around suspiciously) I Mean…”Go Bears! Crush the Packers!!” (Hides somewhere in Northern Illinois)
I found you!
2000 horsepower and the dang thing still wasn’t fast enough.
LOL maybe they should put eight 937.5HP engines on the back, that way the boat would have 7500HP (the same amount of power as a top fuel funny car)

Go faster!!!…. What your kids wont say next time they’re tubing behind the boat.
lol so true
It has low mpg, will probly accelerate global warming by years but hu gives a s**t when its got that much horsepower …..0- death in 3.5 seconds!
Its called a tugboat. You need that many motors to pull a 500,000 ton freighter from the dock to the open channel where it can use its own engines.
Try reading the links above before you write dummy. It was used for drug running across the English channel. And that is way too small for it to be a tug boat that moves 500k tons. I worked at a naval base for 4 years and the tugs that moved the frigates were a lot bigger then that and the frigates have a max weight of 5,000 tons. And it takes several full size tugs to move a 100,000 ton aircraft carrier.
