Ha, looks like fun. What size engine does it have. More power scotty!!!
I needed dual engine Jet drives though to clear the river rocks and for redundancy.
I had to get home on one engine already when one jet sucked up someones underwear.

I have been going to Destin for the last 32 years. Now both my parents live there a mile away from each other.

heliguy,
I live in GulfShores/Orange Beach. if you are ever in this neck of the woods we should grab lunch or coffee. I don't see to many pcars around here unless we drive to Fairhope.
Like the new speed boat. We just got a pontoon boat and if I am not in the Boxster we are on the water.

It has a 25hp mercury on it. It's called a Mercury Water Mouse...Google it. picked it up for a song and it's in perfect shape. It's only 10.5 feet long and holds 2 people. I like your Seadoo.
