I have never seen a boat go anywhere near that fast.
About a minute later a Marine Patrol boat came around the corner full speed then he slowed down. I turned up my scanner and heard the dispatcher ask how the chase was going. The officer replied "I can't touch him, he is going twice my speed". Then "I'll go to his house on Governors and wait for him".
Anybody know how this ended?

I saw this boat a few times this week around Welch and every time I saw / heard him he was being shadowed by a Marine Patrol boat. This boat is HUGE and no way legal loud and quite capable of the speeds you suggested. It does in fact dock on Governors island near the bridge. I have seen nothing on the lake that compares to it. It's actually larger and much much louder than the Outerlimits boat that used to dock near Glendale.
