Post by: BDKW1 on October 02, 2016, 10:45:04 PM: I have been eyeballing those little jet boats for a while.
One of these days......
Being the cheap lazy bastage that I am, I plan on picking up an old pontoon boat and making the hulls into a cat. 14' range with a ski motor in each hull.......... Not the round floats, the U-shaped ones........
Edit: like these http://kansascity.craigslist.org/bpo/5762775594.html
Only much cheaper LOL.... I saw several complete junker boats for 500$ last summer.
