http://www.sammythieme.com/images/rooster.jpg 572 that is awsome over 80 with 4 in the boat but you better turn the shore line is coming up quick

[cyclone]

i wonder if he can go 80mph to zero in just 20 feet? that would be one hell of a park job!

[572Daytona]

That's one of the advantages of jets, we can go through really shallow water wink John, how's your boat coming along, is the motor done yet?

[Johnwithjm]

It would have been done this weekend but some parts did not come today like they should have so it will be done next week. Then off to the dyno on the 8th. Jack will shipped my inpeller Monday and then I will slap the pump back together.
