Love my boat and would not go back for any reason. But it is a huge step... And these things will drain your bank account fast. I just went to a 28ft twin engine V hull. If your going to go threw a boat figure every nut and bolt and multiply that by 2.5 and them you will be close. I highly doubt you will get much $$ from sponsors.... There are guys out there with top notch set ups that would toss some stickers on for a fraction of what it will take to do what you want to..... And if you do decide to due this ..... The more you spend in the beginning will save you way more on the back side.
Best of luck to ya nobody got rich listen to people tell the "you can't "
But in this case I think you should listen to the guys on here
This is a totally different level that jet skis

I don't think he has really researched how much all the little things add up and how quickly they do. I'm just doing a basic re-rig and updating on my little 24/7 right now and it is going to be costing me thousands of dollars, and I'm doing the work. Will it increase the value of my boat? I doubt it. But it is worth it to me because I will be keeping this boat for at least another 5 years.

Don't get me wrong I like the kids ambition and his interest in mechanics, not many kids now want to turn wrench's and do actual work. I can't even begin to imagine what it will cost to put that Skater back in running condition. Maybe he should find an old 24/7 that has been rotting away in someones back yard to try and flip first. Can most likely find one for next to nothing. That way if he loses money it won't be that much. That Skater could bankrupt somebody fast.
