These things Frikken Fly man!
I've seen this in person and was amazed !
any of you guys attempt this shyt b4?
is there any Mods that need to be done b4 attempting something this crazy??
tape up your belly pan holes and rock. I usually let out the limiter straps before I do it to.
When she starts to go down, hit the killswitch and jam the left side of the sled into the water as hard as you can, once the clutch gets under water it'll grind the motor to a halt, which is good. LAST thing you want is the thing still pumping over and then to suck water, that's insta-rebuild time.
If you get the motor stopped before you sink it, just spray some water dispersant down the spark plug holes, replace fuel and oil, and carry on, less than 10 minutes work.
there's race circuits that do offshore powerboat style obstacle courses too, very impressive to watch the guys come almost to a complete stop, then jam it on and fire the thing up out of the water and around the obstacle.
it's not so tough, I mean you can skip across the top easy street, it's when you fit a ddep paddled track and clutch and gear for torque and thrust and start actually playing around with starting, stopping, turning that it gets really fun. And I've not got much experience with that stuff at all. Just the standard "close 1 eye, lean back and keep it pinned." stuff.
thanx....
