Mine takes them more CAREFULLY than his does it would seem. :eek:
At top speed, my jet is so high & dry that I have to trim down a bit to get some hull bite for anything but a really wide sweeper. Too much down tho and I'll catch a chine and oversteer, sometimes to the point of wanting to hook arround. Hooked her completely arround once, at about 20 mph, on accident. Am glad she didn't stall and had an engine cover. :)

That, my friend, is called a "Garvey Boat"- they are outrageous to watch in a race- Talk about loose and fast and on the edge of out of control! We saw them race at Little Egg Harbor in NJ this summer- We were parked about 100 yds outside the first turn :D - You could see the props spinning in the corners!!! :jawdrop:

In a speed count, I got 102 skiiers behind that boat. Amazing!! But there is one dummy behind the skiiers that I think could easily run over a downed skiier with all of the white water and wakes behind them. I might be wrong, but I wouldn't want to be the guy in front of him.
