Speed Boat Mark Of 150 Miles Predicted
Gar Wood predicted a 150 mile an hour speed for future boats after setting a world record of 112.434 miles per hour over a measured mile on Indian Creek. He noted that lighter hulls and more power drive the speed, calling the southward run comfortable and the northward run rough but worthwhile as a new record was allegedly established. The average beat the previous 110.223 mph record set by Kaye Don with Miss England II at Lake Garda last July, and Don plans another run next June with Miss England.
