The truth is, I haven't even driven this boat yet. Hopefully it'll hit the water next spring.

I've driven jets but now only drive v-drive flattys!! I wonder when a jet hull is going to run next to a top fuel hydro??

i grew up in vdrives. i learned to waterski at martinez behind my dads hondo flatty. then after that we had a daycruiser

Does a new Malibu wake boat count...? Hahaha. Other than a two family friends older I/O and my parents Malibu, my current boat is the only boat I've driven...

my first boat was a 70 charger v-drive flat, the wife made me sell it because it was way to fast to haul kids in. now we have the jet for that but some day i might get to put this thing together

« **Reply #61 on:** February 26, 2012, 06:39:29 PM »

I have a few v drives. I also have jets and even a boat with twin outdrives. I love'm all.

I forgot all about this thread. But I can add myself to the list. I had this one all summer, then sold it. It was fun.

« **Reply #66 on:** October 20, 2012, 09:07:00 PM »

I started out driving an outboard then went to a jet,then a IO,then a v-drive.Nothing like a the feeling of hammering down on a v-drive and be gone!

« **Reply #67 on:** October 25, 2012, 06:23:14 PM »

I have just about one of each. A jet, an I/O, arneson, and a V drive. All have benefits and drawbacks. The only drawback to my V drive is its in pieces right now. Haha

nice looking flatty

, any particular reason you sold it. I don't think I could have sold it without at least getting two seasons out of it

It was fun, just not what I wanted (in the long run). So, I got rid of it while it was still a happy boat. New owner actually called me a few weeks after buying it and told me what a great time he was having with it. I dont think I'll ever be happy/satisfied with any boat, but I'll keep trying.

Like sanger pete i also have a sanger mini v-drive mines not together yet so the last time I owned a v drive was over 30 years ago it was a hondo pantara . I Live in havasu and boat mainly on the river as all those 40 foot 100 mph boats churn up the lake and they scare the hell out of me. My miller jet is great for the river
