Yeah if it is a southwind jet 18ft mid 70s and it was closer I would pick it up in a heart-beat. It's real simple, Flip it sraighten the botttom and move the intake back 3 inches install single carb 500 hp motor and you are at the 80 mph range. I have done this and those hulls don't fall apart they just crave alittle attention. They are also the most splashed or copied hulls ever made, gee I wonder why. I did just that more than once, the last one ran 82mph with a single carb 460 ford and a stage 1 rebuild on the pump. M
