Don't blow yourself up

I been looking a various performance mods on U tube and other sites and can't believe what I see.
In case you did not know , all the original Sea Doo boats were recalled and destroyed because they kept blowing up.

Just look at what happened in 2014 . If I was home I probably could have herd the bang .

One women was launched 15' into the air , came down ,broke her back ,was badly burned and died a terrible death.

Some of the things I have seen and read :

A U-tube video of a guy showing how to remove his flame arrestor from his intake manifold so he can get 1 more psi of boost.

Using non marine type gas containers on the back of their boat secured using bungee cords.

Making changes to the boats forced ventilation system including where it intakes the air .
The forced air ventilation system is the intake of your motor right now but their is some discussion of requiring one like is used in full size boats to run before you start the engine.

As soon as I get to the dock , I usually pop the front lid to let some air into the boat. Even with a new boat , if you stick your head in there, you will know that's the thing to do.
