Thinking about a boat......

would LOVE to ride in an AIRBOAT

use to fish in everglades and seen them all the time as a kid. Wanted dad to let me go for a ride on one and he said they are too dangerous (he also wouldn't let me buy my brothers 69 GTS 383 Dart saying I'd get killed in that thing)

maybe someday when in Florida I'll get to go on an AIRBOAT

in my 20's was skiing one sunday morning, buddy driving my WILDFIRE jet boat in the river. I could throw a good roostertail and a boat coming towards us on our right so boat goes left, I stay right until close to other boat 16' outboard with couple in sunday best cloths,

WELL, Yes I sprayed them, they turn around and start to CHASE us. we are going the wrong way in the river but I ski at 32-34 mph, about his max speed.

if I had been driving I could have turned in river at that speed but my buddy wasn't too good with the boat, so he slows, I drop in the water and back up and going. They turn and still following us.

My jet at speed could run in less than 12" of water, not an outboard, so as we are getting close to the sand bar this guy is staying right behind us, I point to the SAND BAR and we go right over it. That was the end of the guy following me as he had to get off the sand bar.

Boating can be fun

yes I'm sure I got a lot of CUSSING due to my behavior

The Baja will roll a wall of water 20-30' out and 8' high if I want it too off the back, That is FUN too
