Miss Geico breaks Annapolis to Baltimore record!
Excerpt from Geico Media, By Bob Wonders
“A couple of years back I drove from Annapolis to Baltimore, a distance of only a few miles, but with sections of heavy traffic it still took me close to an hour. No such problems for the world’s fastest offshore race boat, Miss Geico, which covered the distance between the two cities along the Severn River and across Chesapeake Bay in 10 minutes, 31 seconds.”
…”Miss Geico topped out at 185mph (297km/hr) and averaged 160mph (257km/hr) during the run.
I was fortunate to see Miss Geico at the Miami International Boat Show earlier this year, and I can tell you, she’s worth seeing.
She tips the scales at 4762kg and is powered by two refurbished Bell Cobra helicopter turbine engines that produce 3000hp.
The engines use bio-diesel fuel, whish utilises various vegetable oils instead if petroleum products.”
