First i see the purple tanks on the back...what the hell? Then i see the water pump. what the hell? drink holders in the floor? I bet that gas gets real hot from the reflected heat being uncovered next to the headders. and the price...NO WAY!

OK First I can tell you the guy is a christian. Second He has a huge family. Third he likes nascar or at least the memory of Dale Earnhart. Forth hes not running enough water through his headers. Fifth no spark arrestor but instead a cotton sponge. Sixth hes out of closest space. Seventh his house is a 2 story. Just an observation.

Just about everyone on this board is willing to slam anyone at a moments notice, yet you won't slam someone that's "POPULAR" on this board! Why? I'm not going to name names, but there are quite a few of you out there, that have quite a bit more invested into your boat(I being one)that think, and some are even trying, to sell them for a hell of a lot more than they're worth(Me, not being one) Again, not naming any names, but there have been quite a few "POPULAR" boats, that have been offered for sale, at supposedly "Great prices" BUT yet, they haven't sold! Why? Because you're asking way too much! But yet, because they are the Popular people on these boards, no one says shit to them.... Sad, really sad!

Geez... for a second there I thought he was talking about me. $55K for a jetboat and all.
Sold, by the way.
Maybe he was talking about Andy. $50K for a picklefork... Wait, that sold too.
OK, I'm out of overpriced used boats for sale.
Name names bro...

Forth hes not running enough water through his headers. PP [/QB]How does that work with an exchanger? The feed off of the pump provides water to the headers only? I guess that would work. The listing does not even say what type of drive it is. I assume jet since I see a diverter handle on the floor. The drink holders in the floor is cool. I like it, never seen it before. The tanks are sexy too. Not much seating though.

First and foremost, I didn't slam the guy. I just thought his boat was grossly overpriced. I think he will eventually realize that. Second, my comment was based on the fact that any given week in the So. Cal boat trader (during the spring/summer), you can find clean, mid to late 70's jet boats for $5K. Southwind, Challenger, Rogers, Sanger, etc (much more popular brands). BBF or BBC with Berk. or Dominator pumps. Thus, IMHO, the ebay boat is worth less than $5K.
As Froggy said, if there are sooooooooo many boats up for sale by "popular" members of the board that aren't selling, then name some names. :cool:

Feeling sub-conscience about something? :D I have had quite a few boats in my life, and NEVER, have they been worth anything close to what I had invested in them. PERIOD! But, like I said before, there have been quite a few boats advertised for sale on these boards, as well as on ***boats Classifieds, that have been up for sale for quite a few months. WHY? You guys are right about the asking price not meaning shit. Bottom line, the item being sold is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it.
But I do stand by what I said before.... Seems certain individuals are treated like GODS just because they might be popular with the crowd. Damn, it's so childish, reminds me of high school children..... Now watch as my "Stars" ratings drop! Wooo whoooo!!!

I had to shoot the 5 for your honesty, because i know good and well my boat will never be worth what i've got into it. But you know what they say, "One mans trash is another mans treasure".

10G? Dude he is taking WAY to much pride in his work. Hull is not that great. Trailer is for a fishing rig. Cup holders(good idea)will leak water under floor. We`ve already coverred floors and moisture extensively. 396. Dinasour. Not at all a very popular motor any more. 80`s was its last hey day. Nothing about the pump so I will assume its a JC. I give him 3G tops to sell it. And that`s for the tanks and supposed paint.
For 10G I`d get a blower boat. And a nice ass trailer without WalMart whites and cheap soles.
And where`s the love. I`m sittin` on three stars. Don`t I criticize enough? Make fun of others enough? If one doesn`t see it my way don`t I put `em down for being stupid enough?

First off before you even ask (YES) this is Steve aka Jet Hydro.
Ok now that we`v got through that, lets move on to as why I signed in, in the first place.
lakesmodified has made a few valid points about most of you so called Hot Boat groupies.
I give him 5 Stars!
now, I myself would like to ask what makes you guys any better than any of the others that just happen to own a hot boat?
So you don't like his colors, so you don't like his motor, so you don't like his fishing pole holders, so you don't like the type of hull he has,hell you don't like his cup holders for Christ sakes," BFD". I`m sure he doesn't like things on your boat as well. Don't buy his boat if it pisses you off that bad ok!
I see that this board still hasn't changed much in the last year. New people have signed on as well as some old names have signed off. But the Hot boat groupies always seem to be lurking around looking for someone to talk shit on. You guy`s really need to get a life and stop taking out your daily problems on some guy that has done nothing to you personally.
I have met a few of the Hot boat groupies at some of the races that we`v done and you know what`s funny? They aren't all that bad when you take the key board away. I`v even had one that was from Okla. ask me to help him with his boat....lol... I asked him why he wanted me to help ...I drive a Jet Hydro and I don't know nothing...LMAO.. You know something he sure didn't run his mouth that weekend. How about those Texas Guys that I put on the Trailer in Waco TX last year. They sure didn't run there mouth until they had a computer to do the talking.
Put down those guns guy`s, Save all your anger for those Ass Holes over in Iran, don't take it out on everyone that has a hot boat that you see that you may not like.For that guy you run your mouth about just might be one of those guys that save your life some day.
P.S. Dave for the record My Boat is Not a SANGER JET HYDRO it`s a HONDO JET HYDRO there`s a big ass difference between these boats. wink
Blown472 you think $10,000 is nuts, Hell I`v got just about $30,000 in a jet hydro. Now that`s Nuts! :o

There you go Dave wink Steve, that sounds great. I miss my old Hondo and would like to have another one some day. The jet hydro thing never crossed my mind. But like you, I like to be different too. I have a blown injected 468 that I could slap in it. Do you think it would break 80? :cool: hehe, just kidding man.
Anyway I know you have 30K in it and I bet it's worth all of that. But the fact is I only have 2,100.00 :rolleyes:
It would be worth it as I would go straight to the lake and whip up on HBJet. Then I'ed head north and kick Leon's ass real good.
I can be there to pick it up by Sunday if it's a deal. Whaddo ya think?

I would like to thank everyone that posted their thoughts/opinions... We all live in a GREAT COUNTRY that allows us that privilege! Most other country's wouldn't stand by and allow their citizens the privilege of writing and expressing their opinions and or thoughts. Now, what I was trying to get across with my original post was best expressed by "JET HYDRO", and I would like to commend him for that. I have been on this board for a while now, and I just get so tired of the "CLICK" of The boys and their toys! Seems like one of these "Popular" members writes something(Good or bad, right or wrong)and the rest of the click jumps on the same band wagon, JUST BECAUSE! Come on guys, (You know whom you are)be your own person, think for yourself! God Bless everyone!
