i had a jetski in college and a friend had a pontoon boat. Believe me, we had WAY more fun on that old pontoon boat.

I hear yeah, but I would just about shoot myself if i couldnt go fast. small, cheap,fast is the magic combo here.

Well if you pick it up good luck to ya. If you need a hand I'm right up the street in Hampton exit 12, 78w. I have a ton of parts laying around also.

If i wait a little longer i could prob get my hands on my neighbors 1997 scarab 22. Its got a merc big block and a bravo but 1000 hours. It does 65 all day and can hold 5 but it may be pushing my student budget

Really? What the name of the company. I alway wanted a place to look around when im home. No one in this part of jersey likes fast boats.

No company just a big detached garage that over the years of buying, selling and redoing. Somehow you always wind up with piles of parts.

Aquinosteven 09-16-2009 11:47 AM

you got an address, i would love to stop by and look around. Is this a private garage or do you run a business out of it?

jfm 09-16-2009 11:52 AM

It is private. If you pic something up pm me and I will see what I have good luck to you but again I would really think this before buying. I have to get back so to work talk to you later.

Coming from a Mini-Hawk owner...

For what YOU are looking to do, and have fun with... get a PWC instead.

A MH is a toy. It's not a primary boat. We have a LOT of fun with mine, but we just use it as a toy.
