I have put countles hours into restoreing this boat, and last time I added up the costs I was up to $18,000, so in keeping with my motto "buy high, sell low" I'm asking $12,000.
This boat could use some braided steel hoses, and you would end up with a real sweet jet boat, it runs 85 MPH and has one heck of a hole shot.
I took it to CFW on fathers day and whipped most jets that were running that day.
If you want to see it it will be at the Sierra Auto fair tomorrow Saturday 8-5-06 https://www.sierraautofair.com/module.php?name=autofair&file=ourlocation. So buy this thing and go out and go fast!

I'll throw in the lifeline stuff.

The place diverter has been modified for racing. It has a stop for the diverter, and a plug for the reverse hole. Install the aluminum plug, the water is forced out the holes in the side, so the boat stays still while the engine is running.

Take these things off and it's ready for the lake.
Better shot of the pump.

I have a rope deflecter too. It hass a kill switch and throttle return spring, it will pass tech at Ming. Last time at Ming it ran 13.21 at 78.02 MPH it now runs 85 MPH.
So for $12,000 you could race a boat in the 12 second bracket, or take it to the lake, and race around.
I have a banderlog valve, for header water, baffels, life jacketts, and all the stuff to make it a legal lake boat.

http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data/500/5859clean2.jpg
I put the second fuel tank back in. I put the banderlog valve back on, and the water lines to the headers.
http://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data/500/5859blog1.jpg
I put your baffels back in, and wiped the dust off your brand new wheels.

This thing is ready for the lake! You don't mind if I take it out tomorrow, do you? I'll let you know how it runs. Maybe you should just buy it and you could have a blast tomorrow, instead of me.

I'm not sure if I will go to CFW or Rollins lake. I hear the water is way down at CFW, and you said thier is a bunch of queers at CFW, so I'm probably gonna go with Rollins.
