The craft defended the title once again in 1933 and was subsequently retired, but held the record well into the mid 1960's. 'Miss America X' featured a quartet of highly tuned Packard V12 engines and was the first boat in history to achieve more than 2 miles per minute, topping out at 125.4 MPH in 1932. Between 19, Gar Wood's boats won each Harmsworth Trophy Contest, the world's most recognized race and speed record setting event.
Arguably the most prolific and significant raceboat and American history, 'Miss America X', U-10, was the finale in Garfield Wood's dominance of the powerboat racing and world record setting career.
