Title: Wyoming Eliminator
Post by: jet boat performance on October 30, 2008, 09:58:58 AM
Rhonda and I traveled to norcal 2 weeks back to meet the customer who towed this boat all the way from the midwest ! were honored to do this resto work and yet another Drake jet to Berk conversion , the Drake works according to the owner , this pump has a  huge "loading trough" added to it on the intake ,for the life of me I can see how it got down the lake ? more to follow ....Tom

nice work guys , what the hell is the inspection about , ive never seen that before. and what is the tamper proof tag about , am I to belive that you cant put your boat into the water  for a certin amount of time , if so that sucks. sometimes in the summer im in the lake every day after work. i would be in jail inside of a week for going to the lake .

That came out great!

I got the inspection at Truckee when I moved my boat to my new home up north.  It didn't take too long though when I assured him that I had just winterized it and it was going straight to storage until the weather warms up next year. :sly:

First I get sprayed by helicopter during the medfly BS in the 80's. Now its getting sprayed by pressure washer when I launch my boat!!  :banghead:

Thanks California - pretty soon the rest of the country will be doin it too!  :mad:

"Quaggamussel" sounds like a gay '80's techno band that warms up for Wham.
