I'm sure many of you have seen the email circulating of the multi engined drug boat. I thought it was just a photo shopped image and after deleting it a few times, I got to doing a little research today. I found that a lot of those pictures are legit. Here are some pictures and an interesting read copied from Snopes at

http://www.snopes.com/photos/boats/drugrunner.asp#photo.

Apparently some of this guys boats - and I'd have to assume this one - could reach 70mph and were 60 feet long with a low radar return. Imagine that. Fuel tank holds 15 000 litres. WOW!
