flyinbrian Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 The wife and I are trying to move back to Columbus and threads like this make me even more excited to get back home. I sold my big boat, but still have the Laser. When we get back to Ohio, I hope to meet up with you guys on the water. No winter plans, but spring plans will include fabbing up a back seat, putting in a different fuel tank, and complete rigging of the EFI motor. Also need to finish the back up motor. I'd like to swap out the 20" midsection for a 15", but that is not in the plans for this season. Pic from Florida a couple years back. Stock 200 carb motor. Ran 86mph on gps. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b115/brianscy/Bathroom%20remodel-Fla/104.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FormulaMatt Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) ill work on gettin pics on here when i get home so i can grab them off hsi facebook an thanks i was wanting to trade the jet ski in this winter for a boat but just didnt get aroudn to it so ended up gettin the boat on an awesome trade an now ive got the jet ski an boat :bangbang: but now only one truck to pull them gotta figure that one out haha As light as those things are, add another hitch to one of the trailers. Drop one in the water, take that trailer off, drop the other in the water - then party. Edit: **Legal - but not worth it. Forgot to put I was kidding.** I think I may have seen this boat at Total Marine Performance once...

Total Sign Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v177/Hyperbaja/shantonsboat.jpg That was with the old motor, after shanton just got it. And no one I know tows a trailer with a trailer, not worth the risk. Get a jet ski dock and leave it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck a back seat put some subs in that thing so its got more weight lil more stable when you put a fuel injected 300 motor on it=) SPT boats are awsome as fuck! This is my old boat, It was beat as all hell when I got it now its a lil better. Paul posted a pic of it when it was ugly, Now she looks a little better.

Put a older late 70's 115 Johnson and a electrical trim plate on it my self then did all new electrical work/wiring plus new controls. It was my first build on boat done completely by myself.

Miller Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 What'd you pay for that Shanton? That's exactly what I want is a boat that size for my girl and I. except with the largest engine it can hold without ripping the back off and capsizing.

Have not ran it yet. Should run 100, or a low 12 sec 1/4 mile with a good prop. Your boat looks awesome. Those V4 JohnRudes can be made to run damn good. The limiting factor is always the hull...but that can be modified too. The V4 with a relieved exhaust has the most unique sound ever. Are some of those pics from Lake Cumberland? And you said it right about the two best days in a boaters life. I was bummed to see my Skater getting hauled away, but happy to know I no longer had to work on two motors, fill two 60 gallon gas tanks with 93 octane+Klotz, etc, etc, etc...... I keep ignoring the wife when she mentions selling the little boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
