It is a sad day. My brother kept bugging me to buy my Southwind that I had purchased from ERIC455 and I finally gave in. I did not want to sell it to him but felt that he would take excellant care of it. The boat is running great and is shiny as hell. I bought it to use as a "fun" boat on the river when I did not feel like going out on the lake. The feeling you get running a jet boat is second to none. I am going to miss it very much. My brother will be running it mostly at Lake Naciemento/San Antonio lakes as he lives in the Salinas area. If any of you see him out there make sure to let him know I expect him to take care of it and most of all have fun.
Should I get me another jet or just upgrade my other boat to one of those 25 Howard Bullets?

RD It is not a choice between the Howard or another jet boat....of course there is no compaison RD--If I do bite the bullet (pun intended) then another jet boat is out of the question. That Howard is going to cost some serious dollars and hopefully would be my last boat :)

I would probably have one built from the ground up. My color scheme would be different from his although I think that boat looks awesome.

I really only need the one bike anyhow. Who knows maybe I change my mind and go get a custom chopper made.... :) :)
