The only thing I can remember bad about this made for TV film is that they speed up the film to mimic high speed action chase scenes. Drug boats vs. D.E.A. boats, who's got the most money to buy the fastest? Miami's Thunderboat Row builders know. Innovations that allow runners to drop their cargo thru a secret trap door and recover them later through the use of wireless transmitter technology and GPS was way ahead of it's time when this movie was released! No other movie is close to the plot here, Gone in 60 Seconds on the water? Madison the Movie as just released has the unlimited hydroplane theme where Thunderboat Row has the offshore powerboat focus with a Miami Vice flair.
