Holy crap, that's a mountain rising behind. Have to admit it, I'd crap it in that! Totally out of my comfort zone. That must be a what.. 8m wave? It's as high as the boat is long.

Enjoy

Some time ago, hope you enjoy it anyway.
Noise of wind and engine is annoying.
Used trim and power lift, but not in the bends.
I drive the Scorpion fast, very fast, in this video just to see how far one can go.
Don't mind the ropes and plastic pipes, it's all part of the video trials.

@Jizm: straight lines 103 km/hr (55.6 kts) in the curves 80 - 85 km/hr (43.1 - 45.8 kts)
Without the Power Lift optimized 98 - 99 km/hr which is 52.9 - 53.5 knots.
