Hi all,

Thought I'd stir the pot a bit as I love this photo of my HX. I don't think you'll see a better looking vessel. I rode a 08 gtx or something the other day and I think I'd rather have my 97 HX. It's amazing how different the HX is to ride compared to the new 2/3 seater 4 stroke cruise liners!

What are your thoughts?

Matt

4th Pix!....

Look at your 4th pix.......judging by the depth of the water to the guy standing still in it, you can't be running in water more than a foot or so deep. That willl eventually spell bad news for the motor. Sand will build up in your water jacket and start insulating it from cooling the cylinders.

Your suppose to ride in water no more shallow than 3 feet. I know, that's pretty deep for a jet ski.......I don't always abide by that rule either.......:rofl:

Nice pix!.........:cheers:

Disagree!.....

I'll have to disagree with you sporsterjoel. By the time you get these 3 bathing beauties in your boat, the cooler and beer would put you over the weight limit and the boat would sink!.......


Oh yeah, did you notice I painted my jet boat grey!......It's much faster than yours too!

Welcome dcman4usn

I like your boat. To bad it's not as bad as mine!.....as for size to power ratio. My boat, the Aries, one of 6 from the Pegasus class hydrofoils packed a bit more fire power than your oversized canoe......

With that 40 feet of boat you got 2 RGM 84 Harpoon missles (nuclear capable) and 1 MK 76 Howitzer and a 62 Cal machine gun.

On that big ole boat of yours, you got a Raytheon RAM (rolling airframe missle) system, a MK2 57mm gun and decoys......(wow, big deal :rofl:)....

Kidding aside. The USS Freedom bears the hull designation LCS 1 which is the first of the Littoral combat ships. Here in my home town, we just commisioned the second of the LCS's. The USS Independence which is a tri-hull type close in combat ship.........

BTW, ..........would DC stand for Damage Control?......

I'll attach a pix. This has been a fun thread. I'm going to move it from meet and greet to another section of the forum where it will best fit the category.

If you keep your arms!....

Wake surfing might be good, if you have strong arms!.....with twin Rolls Royce MT-30 gas turbines cranking out 96,550 horse power with a displacement of 3,089 tons...........I don't think you could hold on for very long!...............:rofl:
 
I don't think you have to have strong arms to surf..... But to get up to speed, now that would be the challenge! So, maybe some motor to help... like wake surfing behind another boat, and then get handed off to the BIGGER wake!

Now, mind you, I have never surfed, beyond body surfing. So, this is all talk!

But I do like water skiing!

Sking...

When I was in the Navy, I used to slalom on my off time. I had wondered how many skiers we could get behind our Destroyer while it was at 32 knots? I thought we could set the Guiness world record for most skiers behind one boat. Of course, the US Government would never have part to that.........LOL
