Miss GEICO Racing Boat

No race boat has ever earned a coveted spot in the American Power Boat Association's legendary Hall of Champions — but that may change when this record-setting offshore catamaran finally hits the dry docks.

The 40-foot, turbine-powered Miss GEICO took the offshore racing scene by storm in the spring of 2006 and proceeded to demolish record after record and awe those unfortunate enough to race against her.

"I don't think the other big boats on the circuit knew what to expect," said driver Marc Granet. "Nobody had ever seen anything like it."

In its inaugural season, the Platinum cat dominated all three major racing tours—the Offshore Super Series, Super Boat International and the Offshore Performance Association—capturing three world championships and quickly becoming the crowd favorite from the sun-drenched waters of Miami to the wind-swept bays of the Great Lakes. "When we hit 180 mph, people couldn't believe it," Granet recalled. "Speeds that high were unheard of in offshore racing."

Miss GEICO returned the following year to set a new speed record from in Annapolis to Baltimore, covering the rough water course in 14 minutes and 7 seconds.
