Did I get this right?
Biggus tried to get the top speed he wants for his offshore by putting over 1000 horsepower through a drive (TRS) that proved "obsolete" and inadequate. (The TRS' are described here as "obsolete". How then are replacements "innovative"?)
He's spent megabucks to have somebody in Wisconsin install new drives (Konrads). Now they've been tested in freshwater, which offers less resistance to the drives -- and less speed -- than saltwater does.
So now he can go eight MPH
slower than if he had simply put his Offshore in the ocean?
Why not just back off the horsepower, the gas, and the noise while on inland, residential,
lakes? (Which provide islanders -- and many others -- with drinking water)
Some innovation!
What's next? Leaded AvGas?
