I could get myself into trouble here this year. :lol:

I know its not a Hydrostream but it would still be a major blast and could maybe do some racing or build it slow for little guys first boat. :up:

I'M pretty sure he said 850$ it had trailer and a 50hp I think . Was a blue V hull I think .But I"m pretty sure he would take less . He had some crazy idea that he was going to put a shift motor in it . Like out of a dirt bike . And never did .

The one in Denver ? I bought my Voyager so my 2 year old well be able to get in and out at the beach. My big Sea Ray and your big boat just arent good for that . :( And I deffently dont want her crawling across bow of my Valero or Vector . Its bad enough I have to retrain my jon boat buddies not to trash my paint . :up: Hope you get it then youll have something for this summer and can work on Vulture once its warm. :up:

Yep. The hull will be for sale right away and put that Money back into the vulture. With a little bit of Chets help it will be on the water this year. :-)

Then going to start working on converting the jet boat to an outboard. Hopefully that one doesn't take long.

Then hopefully another stream. A vking or a vector I'm thinking. Or maybe that hustler.
