Statement! Marine 50' Catamaran

Shakedown run for the new Statement! 50' Catamaran powered by Lycoming T-53 Turbines, at 3000 HP. Updated April 2020: We at FPC Studios were hired by Statement! to shoot this shake-down run and it was an exciting day for all of us. While the video was intended just for Statement! Marine's website and a boat show promo video, we decided to give YouTube a try, after starting our channel just a month earlier in April 2010. The rest is history...as Statement! has evolved into a major force in the performance marine industry, and Florida Powerboat Club's Youtube channel just hit 10-years with 25,000 subscribers and about half-million views per month. This has been the most viewed, most copied, most commented-on video in all of those ten years! Plenty more to come... thanks to all the Statement! enthusiasts and Florida Powerboat Club Youtube viewers!

One of the very best turbine boat videos on youtube to this day including all the hydros and river boats! Excellent tune with good turbine whine too

Enjoyed making this video with Todd & Nick from Statement! Johnny Tomlinson on the throttles and Todd driving...I was amazed how fast they connected and got this shake-down run into some seriously high numbers, and the boat was stable through all the paces.

You know it’s serious when you got a throttle man 😍 just like in a multicrew machine we have pilot flying & pilot monitoring, watched this as a kid still gives me goosebumps, part boat part aircraft love it, that turbine spool up intro is perfect

Thanks for all our fellow YouTube viewers for all your positive and inspiring comments over the last five years!! I never imagined we'd hit over 3.2M views (plus another 2M +from reposts) ...and still going! I can see how this video has impacted our passionate boat lovers. Indeed, the one-and-only Turbine Statement earned its name as "Passion Cat". As the producer of this video for Statement, I must sadly report that this amazing machine burned up in an horrific fire during the Key West Poker Run 2014. Thankfully..nobody was hurt! This awesome cat is among the fastest, coolest and most outrageous boats to ever hit the Florida Powerboat Club poker run circuit over 25 years!! RIP Statement Passion Cat!

The track is called zircon hourglass released in 2005/06 and for those that say that the helicopter can't do 180 mph your right, so how can the boat do that when the speedboat is doing 180 mph the chopper is hovering in one place and the shot is towards and from that spot and when the chopper is keeping up with the boat it's on reduced power look at the roster tail and the bow it's not that far out of the water the spray is coming from the bow not the stern of the boat.
