There are also a couple of out drive 20's for sale in CT.
Ones on craigs list and the other is in the hartford new paper but you can pull it up on line too with a search for 20 sutphen.
These two are 10K and 12K
I am also selling my 20(also in CT) with a new 350 chevy, 15 hrs on the engine. 9500
I can't post a pic here but hthis is a link to my boat.

Jets bring a little less money than the outdrive boats and out drives are more efficient.
Theres a guy on one of the jetski sites I go to who took an 05 Gp1300R and changed it to a prop. It went from 67 MPH to 113 MPH with just the change to a prop.
The jet will eat up a lot more fuel too.
Jet boats I think handle better though.
my friend had a jet boat and they are a lot of fun, I just wanted you to now the differences.

Love your 20, but I think your Jetski buddy is dreaming. A JetSki prop will get you 3 to 5mph tops (not 35mph).

Looks like my boat is sold.
Thanks for the invite to post the pics though.
I will have you post some pics of my new Rum Runner next week though after I get it.
As for the Propski I will try and find the link to the ski. They were supposed to be bringing it out to mud bug Which is a get together for the fastest jet skis in the country but they weren't sure if they were gonna let the guy race it in the unlimited since it had the prop.
Heres a link to the propski Not sure if this thread has the MPH figures in this one he's working out the bugs but good reading anyway.

Jetski is just a little boat really.
