      @@englandentertainment1530 I will probably do a gopro time lapse like you did, I just got the boat this weekend so still in early stages. How do you like the joystick controls? I'm not sure if I want a joystick or like a dragster butterfly shaped wheel and a finger throttle

      Someone with a fat wallet has already put one in a brand new mini-jet, but I would love to see a real ugly rat-boat with a Kawasaki supercharged 1500cc 315hp. Big grins.
      EDIT: this one claims over 400hp !😬

    If you guys built an engine cover of sorts it might quiet down the engine so its not so loud AND would double as storage for the coolers and stuff if you put some tie down points and rails on it.

      This was my first one I've ever built so I'm still learning a lot just by using the boat! We took it out this weekend and beat on it and it seems to be holding up great! I have all the build footage and stuff that I can try to make a video out of if that would help you out!

      It's almost like mud flap material it's like a rubbery plastic material they sell roles of it at Home Depot from there you got to glue it on the bottom and riveted it together or glue it and bolt it up there's a couple videos on TH-cam similar to what I did how to rockproof your boat it's so worth it shits to fun
