    What a beauty !! an old neighbor of mine built one of those hydroplanes back in the seventies and it had a 18 HP Johnson on it.
    I got to spend a day terrorizing a local lake with it and it flat out screamed !

    The original sit down jet ski. Sounded like a bunch of gnats buzzing around the lake. I wanted one too, but didn’t know how I was going to haul my girlfriend along in one. Had to be content to waterski behind a 15 foot plywood runabout with a 35hp Merc and had fun doing it.

    Not sure I would agree with that.

    Have you ever taken a joke Dave? Every time I comment on something, you are strictly by the books chased
    Obviously women don’t ruin all the fun. Just half of it 🙃

    OMG, that is awesome. My best friend in high school had one of those with a 25 hp Merc on it–you had to wrap the rope around the flywheel to start it. It was awesome.

    What a beauty. That Merc is awesome.

    My dad’s first outboard was a 62 Kiekhaefer Mercury. Wonderful outboard, reliable as the day is long.
