Trust me when I say this..... I made the jump from jet skis to boats. I l
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

There is not another way of doing it Dmax315. Glass work and rebuilding power boats is now an exact science. Especially when you are talking about 100+MPH boats. Go ahead and blow what money you have! I can't wait to see your work!! Glass work on a 40-50MPH Kawacrappie Jet Ski is not the same as a 100MPH plus boat. Or any boat.

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.
