Title: NO MORE JET!
Post by: UNDONE on August 20, 2007, 12:59:54 PM
Well It's official, the dealership is giving me $8000 trade in on my little Caribbean. So tomorrow I finalize paperwork and go home with my new supreme direct drive ski boat...

Wow I didn't know anyone could go from a Jet to a ski boat, they're like two different worlds all together.

It was a tough decision... But who actually makes money after finishing a jet boat project? Let alone on a trade in. I only had $6k into it... 

I've always been a skier, and having only 4 seats just wasn't cutting it for me...

Ha Plesh, I grew up with props... Then in Junior high I met one of my best friends who's grandfather happens to own Aggressor. That's what got me interested in the muscle boat scene as opposed to strictly skiing.

He may have a prop now but at least he doesn't have a tumorous growth bolted to the back of his boat  >:D

First off money is meaningless when it comes to boats. If you financed your new watercraft then you will be loosing money all all corners.
And how big is your ass that 4 seats can't sit it properly?
Congrats on your new 55 mph rocket...........

I live in a world of fast boats. Every one of my friends boats will do minimum 65. If I want the thrill of speed on water, I still have it.
I am going out to Castaic today after work. Thursday after work (after 4), and Sunday I'll be there promptly at 6AM awaiting the opening of the gates. I'm not so lucky as you're saying quikjet. She'll actually only do 53.

I already miss my jet, I don't miss the rough ride, the lack of storage, the gas bill.
I am gonna miss the sound of open headers, the sound of the timing gears whining, the "oh shits" from passengers when you turn like a son-of-a-bitch, the bouncing breasts (I guess you never get away from that, just now it's a little less violent).

I'd be more than happy to pull you guys around.

People boat for various reason (ski, speed, wakeboard, even fish, etc); undone is obviously a skier, as am I; you don't need a 60mph boat to ski; undone got a good boat for skiing; NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT.
I only got a boat to ski behind; I didn't look for a "ski boat" because I've always liked jets (muscle car of the water) and skiing behind a jet is just fine with me.
Maybe most of the SCJB members boats will beat undone in a race; but my guess is that not many on this forum will out-ski him.

Post by: UNDONE on August 21, 2007, 02:34:19 PM
undoubtedly there are probably many people on here who will out ski me. I have been out of the game since the age of 13 and am now 21.
 warning, the new ski boat has a tower on it... So wakeboarders are also welcome! Looking forward to giving you guys a pull on sunday, just be ready for a lecture on rules before boarding the boat...

When I was 21 I may have been able to out ski you, but I'm twice that (+) now, so cruising is the game.
What's a wakeboard  ??? >:D ;D

I am an avid skier myself. Got up on doubles when I was 5 and single skied when I was 6. Been through the slalom more times than I can remember. I don't ski behind my boat obviously. My brother has a Ski Sanger that we use the hell out of. I normally ski at 20 off where as my brother skies a little tighter than that. The older I get, the harder it is on me.  :(

Well; that's one nice boat; but I guess you won't ever join us in Blythe; may be a little too shallow for your new one.

That's only on a course. Open lake skiing I'm at 32. I'd be afraid to ski like that behind a jet. It's too tempting for someone to hit the diverter and knock me on my ass  :)

That's a job usually handled by a PWC. Keep it "all jet" that way.

Not skiing, but flytime hit me and my son in the boat with a tail a few weeks back; no big deal but I was videoing at the time (which he didn't know); I dropped the camera under the bow just in time; made for a funny clip.
