picture? that will tell the story, i have a 72 glastron carlson 21 ft jet boat, its almost done. lets see some pictures, for $60 thats a cheap price.
does it look like this?an18 hp motor and your flying.you know what they say about boats right,Bust Out Another Thousand

i would buy it, a motor will be the costly part. a friend took a simular boat and installed a jetski driveline. it is really cool and is to fast
bah. jets suck. we have a 12 foot 50HP jetstar, fun little boat, does about 35 on the water.....same HP in a outboard/prop setup it would be doing at LEAST 55.
Would love to get my hands on a 19' Tahiti Jet boat with a 455 Olds stuck in front of its transom....
No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

get the baja they are a great boat
I just got done helping my buddy build this hydostream after three years and 6,000 dollars, went from a shell to this. top speed is 85, with a little more tweaking it will push 110mph.Anyone that Lives on Conesus Lake has seen or heard this boat, this year.

I have a 19' Baja with a 300hp 350 and alpha one outdrive and a 1972 Sidewinder lopro with a merc 800. I have my eye on a hydrostream viper identical to the boat trikes4life posted but it needs a new core, floor,and transom.
cool got any pics?
i went a looked at the baja today, i talked to him on the phone and internet and he just wanted to trade for my motor and tranny. well after an hour drive we look it over and made the deal and then he says, you motor isnt really worth the price of my boat. he wanted my motor/tranny plus $1000, so i said never mind.
wish he would have traded, it was a nice boat, oh well ill just fix the gw

I've seen these boats do 100 plus but that's with 150hp or bigger engines with jack plates and all the other hi po parts . I would say 60-65 would be closer to the actual speed for a viper with a 115.
