    Kyma K7 Wakeboard Boat (jet drive) Video

    Your progress is commendable. Recently, I saw that retired pro wakeboarder Shaun Murray has chosen to end his 25 year contract with Nautique. He's looking for opportunities to create content surrounding all kinds of watercraft, including new and innovative types like yours. I'd value his opinion...

    Show us your tow rigs!

    Yup! This is my 3rd Duramax. 4th if you count my wife's 3.0L AT4. Hers is usually what we tow the boat with. This was actually my first time hitching the boat up to it, taking it to be winterized. My truck is typically tasked with towing the company cargo trailer and 5th wheel, but the boat sure...

    Kyma K7 Wakeboard Boat (jet drive) Video

    The engineering and the design are great. They seemed to borrow a lot from Yamaha in terms of layout with the bow seating, and the passenger captain's chair setup is just like my AR240 had. I watched the video and commented some thoughts on it a couple weeks ago and the founder of Kyma (Edward...

    That's actually a perry great price for a new Supreme S220. Less than I paid for mine in '22. Earlier this year they were offering a $20k factory rebate. I'm pretty sure that price is reflecting that incentive. It's great for new buyers, but not so great for used Supreme values for those who...

    One picture of your last outing.

    One from our September trip to Lake Powell. A few miles upstream from Bullfrog Marina.

    One picture of your last outing.

    If you haven't named your boat already, "Shark Bite" would be a great one. Its earned it!

    Boat Fire 'N Ice Lake Powell Houseboat Timeshare Week 8 (1/8 ownership) $17,500 OBO

    We have a week rented in September this year, but a timeshare has always been something I've wanted to look at more closely. It looks like a beautiful boat. I'm afraid I'd have to pass this season.

    What is this chic riding?

    I only learned about swivel skiing from a Shaun Murray video last year. I think I'll avoid it like I've avoided trick skiing. Not going to be my thing.

    What is this chic riding?

    Trick ski for sure. My grandpa gave me a wood one he had in his garage for decades. I never did ride it... it might be in my mom's garage. What's wild is, in competition, they do a pass holding the rope in their hands like you'd expect and then make a second pass with the rope strapped to their...

    View of Utah Lake from the back deck of a new construction home on Traverse Ridge in Lehi Utah. We're here wrapping up install on the cabinetry for the next few days. Here we are on April 6 and the amount of snow surrounding the Valley is unlike anything I've ever seen. The snow fall in inches...

    Wetsound or JL Audio

    I believe it was the JL M600/6 (600w) at that time that was running the 4 speakers in the boat and the 2 7.7 tower speakers.

    Wetsound or JL Audio

    We did it for multiple sessions before I added the second pair. The clarity on the 7.7 is impressive! If you've got them hooked to a good amp you should be able to crank them up plenty loud enough.

    Sunken Jetboat Salvaged from Lake Powell

    His video today hinted that motor or at least the intake was going back in the boat. Also hinted they may be giving the boat back to the original owners. That would be a shock after 30 years...

    Sunken Jetboat Salvaged from Lake Powell

    Yeah, that last video was trending #1 on YouTube. Pretty cool for a small channel with minimal production. I actually started watching the Fab Rats channel first where Merlin showed up one day. I recognized him from a time he appeared on Mike Finnegan's (from Motor Trend) channel with his...

    Sunken Jetboat Salvaged from Lake Powell

    I've been following the Fab Rats YouTube channel for probably about a year now. They're a small town fab/repair shop in Southern Utah. They're a great follow. They just debuted a few videos of a project they call Operation Yellow Submarine. They along with their cousin Merlin (Merlin's Old...
