FCFGG Weekend: Full Throttle! - Ofoto
Speedboating: Part I
Here's a little videoclip of Krisanne at the helm of our speedboat... she's riding the waves so hard we have moments of hanging on for dear life, the left pane of our windscreen nearly rattled right off (notice the rubber seal is dangling and the trim is nearly away), we got pummelled by ocean spray, and at the end of the video I wipe out at the back of the boat and land on my ass while the camera is still recording...
...which I'm sure had EVERYTHING to do with Krisanne turning around and taking her eyes off the wheel!
Krisanne, el capitán loco!!! 7.8MBs, avi format
Speedboating: Part II
This is a relatively calm, panoramic shot, just as we're going out into open water and Krisanne's inner speed demon** starts to take over...
panorama video 5.3MBs
**inner speed demon may be from Krisanne's stint as a professional driver in a previous life!! No joke!
Speedboating: Part III
By this time we're out in open water, Krisanne's going full tilt into the waves, and I've got one hand gripping the back of Heather's seat and the other one on my camera... the water spraying on the side of the boat is starting to look more like a wall...
This is also starting to resemble a bad Baywatch episode (sounds redundant, doesn't it?), except where is David Hasselhoff and his buxom buddies??
Krisanne is drunk with power! 7.2MBs
(the laughter wasn't quite as diabolical on camera as it was off-camera!)
Note Krisanne takes her eyes off the wheel again at the end, and my shriek is from the airtime I get off my seat from another big wave!
