I first saw the ad in a car magazine. Then I saw the same ad in Kitplanes magazine. Actually looked like it had nice lines and was layed out well. I believe the biggest had twins and Bravos.

Sorry Phragle for hijacking your thread. Well, not really sorry cause nobody in their right mind drinks Bud intentionally...

This guy would have been so much farther ahead just buying a used sea doo or yahama jet boat off craigslist. Theres always tons of them on there.

Why use an air cooled motor in a boat? An old yamaha Vmax 1200 motor would have been much better than an air cooled Vtwin...would have sounded better as well. Sorry harley guys
