Marine Dream Racing was founded in 2005, racing a 2.5 mod hydroplane. Construction of the GP 74 started in 2009, and with the help of many GP owners, the dream of the Premonition became a reality at Soap Lake, WA in 2015. Since then, the boat and team have traveled across the US multiple times, racing in places such as Madison IN, Tri-Cities WA, and San Diego CA. The team started with founder/driver Rob Hall and is now continuing with fellow inboard driver, Jim Mauldin.
