: Hi Rick;

: I'll have you know that I outfitted my 'yak with a small 100hp gas turbine
: and did THAT course in 4.3 seconds - Whoever that Spivey guy is, he must
: have poor upper body development and/or no motor.

: On the subject of gas turbine powered boats, the link below will show a few
: homemade efforts (not mine). Check out the Squirt 1 video download only if
: you want to see a 1/4 mile long rooster tail on a jet-jet boat . . . ;-)
: Also, be sure to turn up the volume on your sound system . . .

: Best Regards, Spidey
