I saw the Victory boats being tested in Dubai back in April.

The sound from those engines is lovely, but seeing them fly across the water is just as spectacular.

Thanks guys.
Mark you a spot on with "flying". In the correct conditions the only part in the water is the 2 props
The water was a bit choppy come race time but pretty amazing all the same.

I was at the end of Mount Batten, sat on the rocks below the pavement area. The zoom is pretty good, equivalent to a 300mm 35mm lense. Although I dod have to crop a few pics to get closer in.
