    Not really! It's actually kinda dangerous to drive one of those with just one hand, while holding your beer in the other!

    Friend if mine took this pic years ago, posted it on an old boat site and it's been used by many that sell posters of it. Friend doesn't care, he's happy that people enjoy it.

    Bill Henderson's Rated X blown fuel jet, with his son driving it for the first time. I believe some of the debris stopped the clocks near the 170 mph mark. Long time ago, maybe it was 160.

    Had some badging decals made up for the cougar, and name decals for the back. Because what's the perfect name for a boat owned by a teenage boy?!?! Grandma does NOT approve... Lol

    Showing grandma was your first mistake. Just go ahead and put them on the boat and show the boy. Let mom and dad break his little heart. :D

    Well, unfortunately grandma is a boat junkie too and already asked to take the boat for a rip when she gets back from Florida, so she was gonna see it anyways. My boat addiction started cause of her and dad...lol

    Yes it did. Billy had multiple serious injuries. This was back when the only safety equipment was a helmet and life jacket.
    He's still around, spoke with him last month.

    Put in a GPS speedo and got some cougar badging that was missing on the sides of the boat. Doing some other wiring and cleanup stuff that needed done. Had to repair the trim lock because when it was in forward the motor was staying locked down. Need some good weather so I can run the thing....
