Not A Rinker

Sorry guys it's not a Rinker but at least it's black and fast - 4 stroke 1813 cc supercharged. Hope to have some fun soon. Best friend bought the same one in blue. As some of you may know I'm 6' 6" so you can see how big this thing is. A little over 4 feet wide, about 4 feet high and a little shy of 12 feet in length.  Boat tests put it at 70 mph on gps  with consecutive runs and 0-30 in 1.5 seconds. No substitute for my (former) 360 with t- 502 mags but better than walking. At least I'm back on the water...... well sorta.   2018 Yamaha FX Cruiser SVHO Supercharged. Trailer up-graded to led lights, shrink wrapped connections, torsion axles, radial tires. Spare, post and lock nuts on order. Waxed and ready to run. MT

    Looks like a lot of fun MT. A little easier to maneuver than the 360, but won't cut the waves like the big boat. Have fun with it; I'm sure you will!

    A dirt bike for the water. I like my 300xc better, but that thing sounds like fun.

    Loads of fun, back in the day when I had some of those. I installed a boarding ladder, you will fall of at some point, they are had to get back on. if the water is cold that day you will shrivel up, LOL just a suggestion.

    MT you're gonna love that waverunner. Yamaha makes the best, hands down. 

    My dad bought a GP 1800 last year, same engine as yours, the SVHO. It's a freaking rocket ship. Almost too much power. Itll try to through you off the seat if you punch it at 30mph.  This is my buddy and his wife on it. 



    Have fun!!

    @randy56 -  the St. Lawrence River is frickin' cold right now - wouldn't last 10 minutes. By July it's not bad. Local lakes warm-up faster.

    Last week the local to me Lake Ontario surface temps were still in high 40's. Brrrrr!! Fisherman are not liking it due to the recent big blow we had and shorelines littered with trees/debris.

    Maybe this weekend the temps will be in lower 50's. A late season for warm-up for sure! I'm directly across from MT and am hoping for a few St. Lawrence trips this summer once we get splashed.

    My buddy had a wake boat, it was fun jumping the wakes on the old SHO. They are a blast!
