Aquarod - By Hal Kelly. If you're interested in having the most unique and certainly the fastest boat on the old river, lake, bay, or sound this summer, the Aquarod is the answer. Aquarod is a hotrod tor the water. Say racing hull to an amateur waterspeed buff and you're sure to get one immediate response. Try it on an offshore race driver and you’ll hear the same thing: tunnel hull. This configuration is fast. Nothing can touch it except hydroplane designs. It has also won the admiration of boaters for its excellent handling qualities in rough waters and its overall safety.
