Racey · Oct 27, 2009

Blown Alky i'm guessing? well over a thousand horsepower (conservatively) on a surfboard while sitting on an upside down five gallon bucket, Pucker factor = high

Looks to be dual four barrels, but still looks to be tons of power.

That thing is bad ass..

A friend of a friend had a boat exactly like that back in the 80's ($UM TOY) and he took me for a run down lake San Antonio balls out and with out a doubt the scariest ride I've ever had in my life

I wasn't worried about the speed I was concerend we'd hit a wake and get pitched out of the boat because of how high you sit, I remember my hands between my legs pulling my ass against the seat and still thought I was gonna fly out :thumbsdown one ride is all I needed, different strokes for different folks :thumbsup

That guy in the hydro hasn't been that light since he was six!

wrighton · Oct 27, 2009

Wow those two on the hydro rode it out like a couple of pro's

HALLETT BOY · Oct 27, 2009

It is a whole different style of boating.. LOL Those cartoon drawings from back in the day with the knees in the chest etc.. Aren't really that exagerated from the truth.

and the dual 4's are sitting on top of what looks like an 8-71 blower:bash:

Rvrluvr · Oct 27, 2009

I mean this with the upmost respect....those two guys sitting in that boat is a perfect example of 10lbs of sh*t in a 5lb box

I'm just sayin

Yes but Racey said Blown alky. That is Blown but carbureted. Not many blown alky with carbs that I have seen. Plus the black exhaust looks like gas. Alcohol doesnt burn like that even when fat. This was the just of my quote to his response.:bash:

riverratmike · Oct 28, 2009

jake · Oct 28, 2009

I'm just wondering if the passenger will ever ride in that boat again.

DirtyWhiteBoy · Oct 28, 2009

These guys promised me a ride on Labor day, but it blew up a storm and they had to bail....literally.

I will catch them on Memorial to collect:thumbsup

Great shots Wheeler!
