I have always wanted to take one of those for a spin or two. Might even get one afterwards as a Dinghy for the Big Boat.:D

I just sold my 65 shirt shaft Suzuki outboard to a kid that runs one. He has a big group and they run them in the north west somewhere

Do the brooms in Australia stand upside down?

My mate in Australia says... yep!

One of these would be a blast on the lower river.

Can you get them in the US?

Agree 100%. Barrett has them in Havasu. They have a few different sizes. Big one in pink in the showroom. They look damn awesome. I’d love to take one for a ride.

They’re a lot of fun. We’ve run a couple of Barrett’s. They’re suprisingly cheap too. Like 5k Ish with motor.

Here’s our boys running one with a 5HP on it. They loved it.

The manufacturer has motor ratings listed per boat and it’s WAY lower then what those fockers are running. Those dudes run like 50’s on them. I think the 13’ kat is rated for like max 20 or 25. 😂

What the hell is that bow boy thinking?

“Uh-yeah, I’ll be a moving ballast on your ‘race boat’”

Had my time it’s long gone.

Hell yeah! I’d park it right next to my motorcycle chariot.

Seriously though my ideal setup is a 22’ C-Dory with one of these strapped to the top. Run it at dawn and dusk only though 😆

It sure would make good use of the tractor wakes!! I could follow the surfers around all day in one of these and not be bored!
