I have torn up rotator cuffs and biceps (weight lifting and a very active motorcycle and mountain biking younger me) .... so I can't board or ski. I can hold onto a tube though.......

In my younger days, we'd get silly as well.

Start off by popping a few wheelies to get the boat warmed up....

Then go for some extreme tubing....

Until we couldn't stay in...

After that, we'd just sail off into the sunset...

I hope that get's everyone in the mood for warm weather!

I don't want to know, but I'm curious. How did you get the boat to wheelie like that?

It was really easy. I ran a 4 blade prop, so had plenty of bow lift. Just trim up to the trim limit (not tilt!), and punch it. It was nearly impossible to stand in the boat; everything eneded up in the back. It looked as if the lake was about to come over the swim deck. It was good for getting any water in the ski locker down into the engine comp bilge.

This was an attention getter, and the wave-runners loved it! To recover, keep WOT, trim all down, and turn the wheel to get the bow down. The motor is already cranking out the rev's, 4 blade prop, and already on step..... you can't imagine how that boat would take off!

A good friend who didn't know any better saw a waverunner and said... "too bad you're boat can't do that". The hull was fairly flat, so I could also get it to slide completely sideways, just like on a waverunner. With the two passangers I popped the wheelie, as described, recovered, and at about 35 mph cut the wheel to the stops. The boat skipped across the water sideways, and spun a complete 180. I hammered the throttle and stood it almost straight up. I stopped the boat, looked at him and his gal with a shit-eatting grin and said.. "you mean like that!" The guy in that waverunner looked like his eyes were about to pop out of his head!
:shock:

I tried to get one 2 years ago. Too bad they are illegal in 49 states.... Mo is one of them.
