RAddiction · 10-04-2009, 10:29 PM

The Dark Knight · 10-05-2009, 08:43 AM

Just a little 502 in mine, good for 70 mph

The Dark Knight · 10-05-2009, 10:48 AM

I couldnt put gas in yours more than once.. Im not big into speed on the water, Its just me.. Ill go fast on a bike, car, or plane.. but the water posses to many issues, #1 gas consumption.. #2 our sh*t can sink into water if something dumb happens (to much money at the bottom of a lake and have to pay someone to recover it...?) #3 (not a good one but still) i knew a guy who had a fast boat that flew out of it with his daughter and died from water getting shot up the hoo hoo destroying his intestines... #4 i cant grasp the thrill of it... So mostly as i said Its just me and im not a hater lol.. to each his own... BUT AND I SAY BUT lol.. VERY VERY CLEAN BOAT YOU HAVE THERE Radiction.. If only mine was as clean as yours.. I just like wakeboarding.. and i never had a purpous for a boat untill i went wakeboarding one summer.. I became addicted and this lil old V6 isnt camy down low or spitting fuel and exhaust fumes in my face as we cruise at 20 with the levelers down and tilt up some..

nativenyerintexas · 10-05-2009, 11:23 AM

I was thrown out of my brothers boat at 80+MPH 10 years ago, 4 days after I bought this boat home from Florida. It was during a poker run and I was knocked out w/o a life jacket. They pulled me from the Hudson River not breathing. Got me going and was in a medically induced coma for 4 days and in rehab for 6 1/2 months. But I do love it and haven't missed a beat. To each his own. Have fun with your Scarab! Cool boat

fargoben67 · 10-05-2009, 10:39 PM

i gimped by my bike on my crutches and contemplated where i'd like to put led strips. my cousin is gunna come get it this weekend and put it into storage for me

RAddiction · 10-06-2009, 08:06 AM

Fargo, Sorry to hear that. Heal up and look forward to a great season next year!!

The Dark Knight · 10-06-2009, 09:54 AM

Well sounds like your more than lucky there.. but im glad you kept after what you enjoy.. a lot of ppl cant go on after incidents like that... i also guess it depends on your addiction level... partial pun intended.. lol anyway ive got work to do on mine, im going to clean it up as best I can.. I know its not a wakeboarding boat persay but, it put out mor wake than my 89 searay did.. so its a keeper for now.. Enjoy.. and im glad you made it through your ordeal.. not something i would want to go through myself but things happen its how you deal with getting back up that matters
