Hey Wette Vette
 

Just wondering if your name (or user ID) Wette Vette has anything to do with a custom boat BAJA built years ago with the same name. Im looking for some pictures of it. Thanks!

I do rember the article on that boat, but that isn't my boat. I love Corvettes and just thought WETTE VETTE would be a fitting name for my 1990 210 Sport. I figure if the original WETTE VETTE shows up where I boat and has a problem with my boats name I would ask if he wants to race for it.:D Good luck finding pictures. If you do be sure to post them on OSO. I'm sure the Baja forum members would love to see them.

My neighbor rode in one but didnt buy it :( Someone post pics up!!

GUYS GO TO EBAY SEE ITEM 1876202414 IT IS THE ZR-1 WETTE VETTE INFO SHEET WITH PICTURES I FOUND IT WHILE ON THERE AND REMEMBER READING THIS POST

Thanks for all the responses. I'll try to talk to some guys out at BAJA this week and see if I can come up with any more info on this boat!

Team Baja Are you the factory?

No, but its about a mile from my house and I have alot of buddies that work there.

I have most of the Baja factory brochures from about 1992 on.
The brochure from the 1992 brochure has some pictures of this boat and the Corvette they pulled it with.

Being the computer illiterate that I am I can't get my computer to past the images here. If someone would do that, I would be happy to e-mail them the images.

Send them to me at [email protected]

Where are you from?

Malibu Ski Boats made a COrvette issue for about 3-4 years in the late 90's. Pretty sweet, but I like my normal old Response LX just the same. Hell, that thing cam out of the factory with more HP than my Outlaw.

Malibu (1997) 350/325hp
24Outlaw (1998) 454/300hp

I'm sure the tq is better on the BB though, but the setup on the ski boat is all tq oriented. Top end at 5400 is 49!!!!!

I guess as the story goes, the boat and the vette were stolen, and the boat later recovered. I heard some Canadians bought the boat, but I cant back this up. Yeah, I agree Allan4, this boat deserves to be in a museum!

Opps! Meant to say I agree with GottaHaveIt on that boat being in a Museum, not Allan4. I think I need to go to bed now!

:D :D :D

Im down in columbus, 45 min south of you.

Gotta Have It, as for wicked sounds, you ever heard a honda 1.6 at 9,000!!! Sounds wicked too, I thought i would hear the head blowing through the hood next, but it didnt.

Here is one of the pictures Pwam1 sent me. If you notice the yellow boat in the background, my buddy supposedly owns the actual boat in those photos. He has those pictures, but I never got to see them.

Thanks Pwam1 for the photos. If you have more of the yellow boat, send them over.

You mean to tell me its winter, and Im still having to spend money on boating related stuff ??!!??

:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Congrats on the GOLD STAR!

Times are tough, so Im gonna try to get an aluminum STAR I think. I wonder what that'll get me.......

just post the pictures in the OSO photo gallery. Then everyone can see them.

Sounds like a plan.
