We finally picked up the new boat last weekend. Too bad the weather sucks too much to take it out for a good ride.
Since the Hummer couldn't pull the boat, we had to get a new truck too...and since the Hummer is gone now, I had to change my screen name. Hopefully I won't get as much crap for this new name.
Here's the new truck:

Yes, it was Jesse's boat.
John West set us up with an awesome deal on an awesome boat. Steve @ Ultra even took care of financing our old boat to the new buyer. These guys really are great to work with.

Did he ever use the boat? I doubt there can be very many hours on it.

It only has 6 hours. I don't think he ever drove the boat...just used it for pictures and such.

We toned it down a bit too. Took the "West Coast F*cker" off of the rear headrests and the seats. It is still on the bow of the boat, on the scoop, on the couches in the cabin and on the headliner in the cabin.

I liked the HummerJohn screen name better. More pizzaz. It sounded like a guy who really got the job done.
Nice truck, BTW. :cool:

Sounds like you got a good deal. If it were mine (and it isn't) I'd have gotten Ultra to change the focker stuff and the middle finger salute but that's just me.
Enjoy your new toys! :cool:

I like the F*cker stuff and the middle fingers (and my wife does too!). If we took that off it would be taking away from the boat. John West did an awesome, out of this world gelcoat on this boat so why would I want to change it? We decided to go ahead and take the f*cker off the seats so that when we're driving down the highway we're not educating everyone around us with the graphic language...but we're not all that worried about our ***boating friends on the lake.

Yep! That's me. I am the one with the light blue shirt...at least it looks like you weren't our target that day. The balloon launch matches the new boat!!!
Are you a Folsom Lake ***boater?

Actually you got us once (after about 15 trys) then switched targets. We usually go to the river because I like to waterski, but we go to the lake and chill at the 5 mph area once in a while because the ramp is only 5 minutes from here. You might recognize the boat.

Yeah. It is what is. It either suits your personality or it doesn't.
It sounds like you're the right guy to own that boat. You'll have a lot of laughs and a lot of fun with it.
Congratulations, UJ (... but you'll always be HJ to me... :D ).

The wheels are Jesse James 20's. We had to get 20's on the truck too so the boat wouldn't totally trump it...

Nice boat. Yeah, we usually stop launching balloons once we hit a target. It usually takes a long time to get it too. I actually have on video hitting a guy on a wakeboard boat talking crap through his megaphone. The balloon actually landed right in the megaphone. It was pretty dang funny.

I think my boat is hiding in there somewhere. No more hiding for me...at least with the new boat. Oh and Adavantage John, Hummer John, Ultra John or whatever you call yourself these days get use to looking at the back of my boat. Here's a pic of it so you can start practicing.

you've got to save the pic to another site and then post the link. That's what I do at least. I use photobucket.com.
Here's your lame ass end of your boat btw.

Notice that I purposely didn't put a ski tow on the back of the boat, which means you're SOL when you break down and need a tow.

John West is an awesome guy. I actaully haven't seen his show yet. I have Dish Network and don't get the OLN channel. I'm wondering if they will put it out on DVD...it's was only 4 builds though so I dunno if they are going to do it.
Everything on this boat looks better in person. I absolutely love it! We're up in Nor Cal, so I'm not too sure on a trip to Havasu. It's like a 12+ hour drive each way and we have a nice lake here 2 minutes from our house. We'll see though. I'm not ruling it out all together.

Wow 2 mins away ........must be NICE!!!! 12 hours is brutal! But I think it is something you have to try once. Break up the trip and make it an adventure :220v:

Yeah, Greg has got 2 motors to run fuel to. We only have 1. He is talking a lot of smack. I'm wondering what he is going to do when his boat only runs 100mph and we blow right by him...

If you blow by me at 100 m.p.h. its probably because I only have one motor running. So to answer your question, I would just start the other motor.
