It's kinda cool, in it's own way lol

But this

"Never before has a jon boat been cool to own" :x

Whatever, can you even get 5 people in a 1436? Will a 30hp even pull a 225 b guy out of the water with a loaded hull?

I don't see $8900 anywhere in that hull.

A 2007 riveted Alumacraft with a 2003 30hp 4 stroke Honda on the back.

Looks pretty cool but according Jesse James, it has to work as well.

You already know it rides like crap out in a lake. How long would it take that think to get wake swamped?

 

[PGRChaplain]

That's the longest Craigslist add I've ever seen..........................


:USA1:

 

[RivrLivn]

I don't think they even tried towing a wakeboard with it. I don't see a tow spool anywhere on that tower. That is some funny sh*$ !!!

 

[SumDumGuy]

first thought was... appropriate name.

I see a PWC in front of the boat on an extended trailer. So, is that a truck-ski-boat?

Kinda like the truck-boat-truck on 'squidbillies'?



LMAO

LOL, and don't forget the flotation, likely comprised of Not-so-great-stuff expanding foam in a can. Which is likely how this becomes a wakeboard boat. Instead of pumping water into ballast tanks to make the stern heavier for a larger wake, the foam assures that you always have water in the boat!! :mrgreen: =D> LMFAO!

"Capabilities. These boats were engineered to perform. It'll jump up on plane with 5 passengers, totaling 725 pounds. It is equipped to deep water start a 225 pound wakeboarder with 450 pounds worth of passengers on the boat and has done so every weekend out. We've had 350 pounds worth of riders on the boat while pulling 350 pounds worth of riders on a tube.

FYI...the next boats to come out of production are BRAND NEW, never seen water, 2012 models, specs being 14' x 48" (at the floor) with 30HP motors, as well as the MONSTER 16' x 52" (at the floor) with 40HP motors and featuring a ballast system. Call us for availability and pricing."

I can't believe any of this, having run a 1650 with a Yamaha 40. It was acceptable, but not a Monster, and definitely wouldn't "jump" on plane with 5 passengers.

You gotta be a special kind of stupid to want that. There's literally not a properly installed item on the entire vessel. From the ill fitting trailer to the "ridiculous" wake board "tower". Heck, for the time in money it took to make that POS, you could buy a real boat. Ah well, a fool and his money are soon parted.

 

[SumDumGuy]

whatcha say about my money?

 

[PSG-1]

I wonder what DNR or the Coast Guard would say if they saw a 14 ft johnboat with 5 guys in it, also pulling a wakeboarder? Something tells me they'd terminate use of that vessel, and make them go back to the dock, where they would get a big ticket for overloading.

I have a Triton 1650 with a 50 Merc. We can load it with 8 bushels of oysters at 60 lbs/bushel, for a weight of 480 lbs, plus myself and my girlfriend, that's about another 300 lbs. With that weight, it will plane off, but it takes a while. I just don't see there being much truth in the claims of the performance of this wakeboarding boat.
