jbtrailerjim,
I have lived here "in florida" most of my life and can tell you there are some great places to run your ride. As you will be close to the shore you may considier going the sleek route, but your jet will be right at home here in the rivers as well.
I can put you in touch with some locals in the Tampa area to gvie you the tour on the local waters, no doubt about that. Either way you will be fine. We have a lot of great places inland and a lot just off shore.. pick your poision!!!
Let me know how I can help.
Jack
thats sounds great man, thank you, we will be moven there in about 7-8 months, and im going to hold onto my jet and build a 468 for it. is there shops out there to build my pump, or should i get it done before i move?
