Allegedly there was a guy down in vdrives that said he owns that boat (roman1) I think.
I always thought he was full of sh*t though.

Actually there were 2 different boats for "Suck My Wake", one was a jet and one was a v-drive. Not sure what make they were.

If you pay close attention to the movie you'll notice a few things. When he fires the boat up on the ramp you'll notice the blower belt isn't even turning. :idea:
Also I think The boat they tow away from the rental place and the one on the water are 2 different boats I think. Can't remember for sure. Definatley a great movie though. :rollside:

I thought it was a Miller. Do a search on here, and you'll find a lot
of information under Vdrives on this subject. :D
VDRIVES ROCK!!
Found this...
Suck My Wake was a 19', all-glass Miller built in 1971 in Santa Maria. It was owned by a friend of Jim Miller. The owner moved to Bass Lake area, the boat was bought by the movie company and pretty well trashed during the filming of The Great Outdoors.

A friend of mine worked on that movie. He told me that when on location at Bass Lake. He saw a Shiada with "suck my wake" painted on it. They bought the boat. Then they saw the big motor in tha canyon and decided to use it and painted it with suck my wake. The shiada was used as a camera boat. They cut out the hood and placed an camera in it.
My friend bought the boat cheap after the filimg and still owns it. People always comment on the name that he has painted on it. But it was the original "suck my wake" I will post a picture.

Why do Chet's kids look at him like he's Zeus and my kids look at me like I'm a rack of lawn tools at Sears
Personally, I'd rather see a 46 inch bust singing "Burnin' Love."

Chet: you bastard, you bastard!
Roman: I think he's saying go faster.

He saw a Shiada with "suck my wake" painted on it.
I just saw it for the 10th time last month. Ever notice sometime during the boat rental scene, there is a Schiada logo on the rental shops counter?

In a scene where John Candy is driving and just leaving the boat rental lot, he gets the trailer hung-up getting out of the narrow gate & driveway (scene is sometimes deleted on TV broadcasts of the movie), there is a quick shot of a faded old yellow sign with black lettering by the gate which says "Schiada Boats". Possibly a "product placement, advertisement" deal for the use of a Schiada boat during the making of the movie? Anyway I have the movie on tape and once in awhile I watch it just to see the boating scenes and enjoy the one liners back & forth. Never the less, everytime I watch this movie I laugh may ass off. There can never be a sequel to this movie.
