Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Thanks for the compliments on site guys....I love to read the feedback.

A long time ago I saw the direction hotboat was going and didnt like it, thats why i created this site....and now, they are driving everyone off. I don't expect to capture all of their fallout as the place falls apart, but slowly I'm seeing people coming over this way to see whats going on....and I welcome each and every one of them....new guys or old timers.

Now, if I had the power, I would create my own mag too and it would be catered to the grass roots of performance boating and show hotboat the market they overlooked, but I just don't have the resources or money to pull off something like that. It's disappointing to watch the only mag who covered our hobby turn its back on us and sell out.

I know SoCalJetBoats.com has had its ups and downs, but its still pretty young and growing. I have many exciting plans for this site in the coming months to cater better to the jetboat community.

i like the layout (look and feel) but could careless about large boats sitting in coves....or poker runs.

The jetboat community accomplished 2 large historical things this year.......Circle Boat racing with the NJBA and brought back CompJet to the APBA ....both for the first time in over 20 years. The magazine was totally blind to it.

Not to mention the world finals in Phoenix....or the Parker Enduro.....or the SCSC/APBA Finals.

....they just coverd some boring ass poker run and did stories on some cookie cutter factory boats that some guys fat wallet built and never put a wrench on it himself.

Brad that is what I ment about the old style mags that changed their format...look at the hot rod world...the grass root "rat rods" are coming back and strong...and with mags that show "how too's" just like the old days. when are these "high dollar" mags going to understand there is a market out there that they are completely blind to? If I had the bucks you bet your ass I'd put out a mag that showed how to glass and install and build....that is what people want...but then I could be just rambling....my 11 year old rum is kicking in.....lol....

From what i have been reading over at HB,   it seem's the NEW OWNER'S are cutting anybody loose that makes a wave ???  they dont care about you'r post count.  what i cant figure out is why the drastic change (clean house)  just because some people are smart ass's or bitch alittle?? or maybe cause they said performanceboats.com :o

Well all i can say is im glad Brad owns SoCal cause if those people from HB owned this site, I would have been banned a long time ago :(

Yes Ralph i know he can still ban me

The other site's, well in my opinion they are just the other site's ;)
Screw Hot Boat and let SoCalJetBoats grow >:D  6:00 am and they arent even on line, but we are ;D
