GW invader 2 seater. I got some skanks from the local High School to ride in it too once. I was about 14 and 12 miles from the scool. I took them out and it would not perform very good and i was bummbed.. Turns out it had a coat hanger around the prop.. lol.. I used tobeach it on the dolly I built thaty I had laying on the shore by the water.

Befor that I had a 14 foot alumicraft float in in a storm .. then it was a 8 foot hydro.. then a 8 foot runnabout then the gw invader..
All of the had mercury power. The 20 merc on the 8 foot hydro was scary , Sat on the deck to keep it a float when i pulled the rope.. Then one day the motor flew off at WOT w my brother driveing it.. That ended that lol . then I got the gw.. The 8 foot runabouot .. lets see I painted it up w a brush.. Then took it to the lake . put it in tha water and gassed it.. The Whole transome tore off anf it sunk.. Lol Dry rot i geuss LOL!!.. The 14 foot row bow was what we all learned how to ski behind.. 20 HP merc is the best motor ever built . we had a 7.5 too..

Checkmate 13 MX with a Merc 50 at the ripe old age of 13. My father made me buy it myself, his comment was nice little boat but what would I want that for. That was some 17 boats ago. Never owned one that I could not have lived without, at least until the next one came along
