I made a mistake. Video is now public Sorry! https://youtu.be/L5OOW3Y5U3s <https://youtu.be/L5OOW3Y5U3s> ---------- Forwarded message --------- The attached you-tube video made by me shows the damage that can occur when one runs aground hard and tries to get off by yourself using copious amounts of power This Pershing was on its way to France (had just been dropped off by a freighter from the Russian Black Sea Coast, when just less than 1 nm from the marina, it skirted a navigational buoy on the wrong side. While I can probably say with some certainty that there is no one on this list that owns or Captains a Pershing, it still can offer lessons we as boat drivers can always learn from. Or at least chuckle under our breath as to the "wisdom" some professional Captains exhibit. Lee Levent Marina, Izmir Turkey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5OOW3Y5U3s PS Rudy!! I just cannot wait to hear you chime in!!

Those are Arneson drives. The surface-piercing wheels probably cost around $60,000 each, at least they did back in the '90s when I was with Twin Disc, the Arneson manufacturer. Phil Little
