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
