my search-fu is failing tonight

[Kohrah]

all right guys and gals,

I've been trying to search for a decent video of a planing hull boat going from a dead stop / drifting to up on plane so that I can explain it all to my girlfriend whose never been on a power boat before. But as the title says my search-fu is off tonight apparently.

Ideally i'm looking for a video where you're able to see the bow rise up slightly before leveling off. So a side shot of the boat either from another boat or land would work best.

 

[oops!]
