Dirty Duck Soars Then Crashes | Jefferson City News

A boat hit 213 mph at the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout—then suddenly lifted off like a flying machine. Captured on video, it went viral with millions of views. Both racers, Rusty Williams and Adam Seraphine, walked away okay (though Seraphine broke his leg badly). Team owner Slug Hefner called it part of the game at these speeds. Williams said they lost downforce while adjusting trim near the finish. Spectators were stunned—Jeff Ingalls from Minnesota filmed it in slow motion, everyone’s first thought: safety. Despite the scare, both stayed focused. Now the team is analyzing what went wrong, planning engineering changes, and preparing to come back stronger for next year’s top gun title. Seraphine was released from the hospital Monday afternoon. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
