Biily jo jim bob comes in " My sea doo ( whether it actually is a sea doo or not //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif ) ain't going as fast as it used to " " I think I need a new prop" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Dont' you mean "John Billy Jo-Bob"?????

My neighbor has the 4 stroke 2005 polaris 3 seater. He let me drive it and it was fast as hell and accelerated like a mutha ****a - hit 80 mph. Pretty pointless though cus you dont even get wet. As compared to my 93 barracuda - So beat up hadda rebuild the carb like 10 times but it jumps better than any other seated jet ski ive seen. If you got a big 3 - seater I dont see the point in owning a jet ski!

Did you hit 80 on the speedometer, GPS or radar? Speedo's are pure B.S., GPS is close, but radar is accurate.
Or were you still on the trailor riding down the highway??? In that case, I've had mine up to about 85!!!

I want a wetsuit for when its like 50 degrees out but there are plenty of big boats out cruising still/fall-spring wakeboarding....

I had one (3-mil Shorty) for riding during the winter months in San Diego, The Pacific is pretty fucking cold. I'm on the Patomac River near DC now, so I'll probably wear a Tyvec suit, the water is dirty as hell...

Uh uh, not mine . Just a guy that get's all his work done at our shop.

Where is your shop at? I'm accross the river from you. I'm dropping a new engine in my 99 GTX LTD in April, and I may need some parts/advice, and I will definitely need some glassing help...

Name of the shop is top gun. We're located on 122 in Franklin county I believe. I'll check the address monday to make sure. Messed up ain't it, I can drive to the place blindfolded. But I don't remember the d@mn address. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif How wild you planning to go. Dude I was talking about has a rotart motor in his. His bill for the total setup was like 15 g's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif too rich for my blood //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Well no shit??? I thought you were up near Fairfax...

I used to live on Smith Mountain Lake from 87 to 96 or so... Bedford and Franklin counties. Mom lives in Wirtz, dad lives in Thaxton, brother lives off Hardy Road.

I was in y'all's shop last summer, looking around. Way to far to drag my ski... LOL!!!
