On September 15, 2023 the Patriotic Duty offshore race team broke a 35 year old offshore powerboat world record by running their 47' Outerlimits GTX offshore powerboat from San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge to Marina del Rey in Southern California, breaking the old record by over an hour. This race, produced by ‪@OceanCup‬ was one of a series of endurance races hosted by the powerboat organization who aims to put the ocean back into Offshore Racing.
As a member of the Ocean Cup team, I was invited to participate in this historical race by filming and photographing the team from the chase helicopter as we followed them down the coast. This didn't go completely as planned, but that story is yet to come on a future, full-story video.
2023 was full of great photo adventures, but this event takes credit for being the coolest one I did this year. Thank you to team Patriotic Duty and Ocean Cup for inviting me to be a part of offshore racing history.

Doesn't matter where it's held, it's open to anyone in the world to try to break. that's the point. There ARE other counties that have people that hold "world records" even though they are done in that country, I guess us Americans are actually smart enough to realize that, unlike you.

Anything is easy with enough money. Remember this happened because of one thing. Lots of money. Can't do it without it. Money first then some skill. That boat is insanely expensive. Each 1350 engine and drive costs $182,600 new. So that's over $365,000 in cash they had to pay for those engines. Then depending on what year that boat is, those boats go for around $400k-$500k used so they probably spent close to a million dollars in CASH!!!! to make all of this happen. I'm not too impressed when millionairs do stuff. Lets see this happen with 3 guys who only make $70k a year each and that would truly be something.

And once again the creator has to remind you that you’re an idiot if you think you can hear anything but extremely loud buffeting wind noise doing 100 mph in a turbine powered helicopter 75 feet above the water with the windows open and rotors chopping overhead. There’s a reason we wear headphones in the chopper…. So all the loud noise doesn’t damage our hearing. If you want that kind of wind noise so desperately, go stick your head out the window on the freeway at 80mph. And I dare you to keep it there for a few hours. But whatever you do, I guarantee you that you won’t hear engine noise. Please do me a favor and unsubscribe.
