MISS GEICO made its triumphant return to Michigan City, Indiana and raced to victory at the 10th Annual Great Lakes Grand Prix held on August 5, 2018. The crew of Englishmen consisted of driver James Sheppard and Steve Curtis on the throttles. The duo produced a powerful performance on the Lake Michigan race course, covering the 19 laps in 40 minutes and 26 seconds with an average speed of 102.91 mph. The 47-foot Victory catamaran hull is powered by a pair of 1,650-hp Mercury inboard engines and propelled by a pair of BPM surface drives. The offshore race was sanctioned by the Super Boat International Series.
