After seeing HBJets site, I was inspired to make my own. The free websites are pretty easy to make. If anyone has some good pictures out there, lets see them.

What happened to my title?! That doesn't make any sense. Oh well I'm sure you all get it.

I'd be glad to add both of your links to my site if you'd do the same. Erik, you may want to make the file size of the photos a little smaller. It's loading very slow. Good start though!
I'd also like to add your boats to my gallery if you don't mind. Those are the kind of boat I'm looking to show-off!
HBjet, who did the interior of your boat? I need to have my seat redone in the next year or so.

Thanks for the feedback Jason. I'll try to make them smaller. Feel free to use the photos on your site.
I'll work on adding the links for both of your sites. I'm still pretty new to websites, so if I have any questions I'll send you an email.

Sorry Jason, I thought I added your link. (it was late when I added them) Also, feel free to add my boat pictures to your site, and if you want I can email you some boat pictures that aren't on my site so you have something different. Interior, man I love my digital camera. I'm actually going to have mine redone over the winter. The interior does look good for 50/50. (50 feet away or 50 m.p.h.)
I'll be updating later tonight.

Erik, great looking boat!
you go to Mojave too?
The pics loaded fine for me, but I have a pretty fast connection.
How about a close up of your passenger? ;-)

OK, I got both of your links up on my links page! I'll add your boats in the next week or so (been real busy).
HB, it's funny because I saw your interior was in the old style, turns out it's because it is old - fair enough! I like that old style of stitching you don't see in new boats. Since I'm trying to stay retro with my ride, I want replace the interior with that style.
Your sites are looking good. Erik, your site loaded much better now! If you have any website related questions, I'll try to help if I can. Contact me anytime - jason@rivertoys.com

Jason I was reading on your site that you were able to get over 40 gallons into you 19-ft Hawaiian! I was thinking of upgrading my tanks this winter any info that you could give me on squeezing tanks that big into boats oursize would be really appreciated.
Bubbledeck, yeah I usually go to Mohave. In fact I'll be there this weekend. But I'll be running a lot more of the river this summer too now that I have a jet.

Yeah Erik, I have two 23 gallon fuel tanks. I cannot use OTT exhaust because the headers don't fit with these tanks. I'll see if I have some photos that show them better, if not I'll take some and email or post them. The only issue with these tanks is the weight of the fuel they hold. With full fuel the water line at the transom is about 2 inches below the rub rail. I'm aware of this and load fuel/gear according to conditions (rough water, less fuel - four adults, less fuel - me and my wife, fuel for a few days - you get the idea). The other side benefit of these tanks is it give you a shelf to place your tools on when doing engine work.
If you guys don't mind, e-mail me some details on your boats that I can put with your pictures - engine, pump, cd, history of the boat, things like that. If you have different photos I can use, that'd be great.
I also go to Lake Mojave most of the time. We stay in Laughlin, launch at Katherine and hang out in one of the coves across from Katherines and south about 1/2 mile (the deep cove where you can jump off of the rocks). If I'm on the river, I hang out at the dam or just inside the state park area across from Bullhead. We should all get together one of these times. My next trip hasn't been scheduled.
Jason.

Erik and Rivertoys..
there is a really good cove at Mojave, it's on the west side, north from Katherine's landing about the 2nd or 3rd inlet north of the big power lines.
I know it's a long ways off, but I have a trip planned for Sep 22-28, may change a day either way.
I used to stay ay Harrah's until they got boater unfriendly (my opinion). This trip we're going to stay at Avi which although is not as glitzy it's set up pretty good for boating. In a previous trip we boated south from there to Topoc gorge and it was great!
Late September is a good time to go, still warm, but not as crowded.
That would be a neat deal for all the people here to hook up sometime and put faces with names.
I just hope froggystyle brings his cardboard cutout LOL
