Ok most of you know Im Dooless... Well I still own 2 SkiDoo's, but since the weather is now nice up here in PAIve had it out a few times, I ll post a report.. Both the pros & cons.. First off the cons... I cant move this pig around the driveway myself it has a twin axle trailer & its heavy. The second & most disturbing is the handling at low speeds.. While talking to other boaters they used to say how hard it is to drive a jet boat... Well I had SeaDoos (2 boats & 1 waverunner) for the past 8 years so relearning on a prop SUCKS!..... Pros are more room, place to crash out, porta potty for the wife, speed, speed oh yea did I mention the speed? & The sound of the big block Chevy with through hull exh. Gas isnt that much worse than the 240 in the Speedster, I used to have the speedster wide out where the Baja cruses. Top end is mid 70's. Also the drop out bolster seating is nice to stand up. Next month I will be in my first poker run on the Chesapeak bay. Hers a pis on the bay.

Umm.. from what I see, it's nice. The first thumb doesn't expand.
Just 'cause you got a new ride doesn't mean ya can't come socialize every now and again.
