Just for the people that didn't know, those engines you can see there on the back of the boat are 300bhp each.
That boat has 600bhp, and its not even one of the racing P1 boats.

the bigger class have V8 engines... mainly Lambo engines.
all i know about the power is that the maltese team managed to get 750 horses out of every engine (they had 2) and during the race they were 2nd!! thats about 1500bhp in a boat!! (fot the evolution class)

their noise is one of the things i like! can hear the maltese team testing from home sometimes! and they would be 3-4miles away!
