Tempo Alcoa
The Tempo Alcoa was a jet-powered hydroplane designed by the Aluminum Company of America and hydroplane driver and band leader Guy Lombardo for the sake of setting a new world speed record on water.
In 1959, Lombardo was attempting a run on the absolute water speed record with the jet engine-powered Tempo Alcoa when it was destroyed on a radio-controlled test run doing over.
A new record was never achieved by the Tempo Alcoa.
