We had a few stops and refuels throughout the day to stay safe and keep the fun going. Thanks for watching!

The ride from Pensacola To Destin Florida is absolutely a blast! Don’t for get to check out Fort McRee & Sand Island in Pensacola Florida while in the area. Thanks for dropping a comment & watching. I appreciate you

@@SAABROSS Correct, East behind me as I’m traveling from the boat launch in Navarre Florida heading to Pensacola Florida for the Blue Angels Air Show. Early early start, the Floridians take those Air Shows SERIOUSLY! If you’re not early not sure could ever find a parking spot 😬

@LifeBeginsOnTheWater Hahaha.... Awesome,... Maybe one day I'll do the warm shift on the ski with you guys. But for now I'm trapped here, everything's a mess in this country, I've got a big job fixing things out, I'd be running away if I took time off, so I'll stand and fight bro... Then I maybe make it across the pond. 😉👍🇺🇸

@ Till then brother, stay safe!

@LifeBeginsOnTheWater and you man... I've got the cold❄️ to worry about... What's the danger where you are? Heat....? You see many sharks?

@ I live in South Louisiana, not much difference in temperatures from JD. He has it a little warmer for sure. Heat & hurricanes 🌀 our biggest danger for sure. You don’t see as many sharks 🦈 as you would think. Just goes to show you way more water on this planet 🌎

@SAABROSS Lol, yeah we don’t see much cold 🥶 weather out our way. Thanks for carman, Manning, and watching give Scotland I love ❤️. Happy Thanksgiving

Destin Florida is a little piece of Paradise for sure. Gina’s rides a 2016 Kawasaki 310R! Thanks for commenting & watching. I appreciate you.

@LifeBeginsOnTheWater snap brother... 2016 310R here as well. Bottle some of that weather up and ship it over to Scotland for me please. 😆👍

@SAABROSS Lol, here’s wishing you warm & hot weather!

No we sure aren’t sucking up sand. The water around Crab Island is generally 2.5-3’ ft. I’m very anal when it comes to keeping our skis looking good and not sucking up stuff through the pump. Actually Gina’s impeller/prop is still the original 700+ hrs! Yes, Gina rides a 2016 Kawi 310R

@LifeBeginsOnTheWater on the phone here... It looks like it's approaching the limit, you know how the ground and water changes... But if you know the place well and are not a completely drunken idiot, you will manage just fine. Glad you care about your machines, too many folks have too much money and don't care about their skis... That's not me,... I'm an appreciative peasant that cares. 🙂👍

@@LifeBeginsOnTheWater 96 hours on my one... Time to winterise it now. I maybe do a video running antifreeze through it, liquimoly oil the cylinders, and supercharger, spray the belts and take the battery out. I maybe do a video on the process.

@SAABROSS Yes I know what you’re talking about. But yes very familiar with the area. Helps it’s crystal clear! Absolutely care about our PWC’s, reason why we have 700+ hrs on them. Thanks again for commenting & watching

@SAABROSS Sounds like a great plan. Keep us posted.

Right, hard to beat those early morning JD. Usually can’t get our group out of bed to catch a sunrise 🤣😂.

​When I see the sun come up... I know I had better get to bed because I've been working hard all night. 😂 Hi JD... I found Billy on your channel... Obviously subscribed. 🙂👍

@SAABROSS JD has a great channel, I appreciate him & family for all of what they do for the PWC community

@LifeBeginsOnTheWater agreed... Man is gold. Don't tell him I said that, I don't want his head swelling 😂

Never gets old Pate! Thanks for watching

Nice, I appreciate the education. You obviously know your locomotives 🚂. Thanks for commenting & watching. I appreciate you

Thanks so much Gregg! Happy Thanksgiving brother

I appreciate it Pate. Thank for the support like always. Have a great Thanksgiving

@ Have a good Thanksgiving as well!!

@ Ty

Yeah she sure has through the years Pate! Wish I could say everything was original. But we like most makes and models you will have to replace some major parts & minor parts 😬. But she does have some of her original parts for sure. Thanks for watching

@JUANORQUIO I appreciate the kind words and you supporting the channel! Thanks again

It sure was a great day to be out on the water Pate. Thanks for watching brother

That song is spot on!

@ Lol, 😂 🤣🤪. Thanks Mark. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Hope all is well out your way brother

Thanks, yes she was a beautiful girl. I appreciate your comment & watching.

I appreciate the kind words, thanks for commenting & watching

$25k out the door with trailer

Lol, yeah thank goodness you can silence the alarm 😉. I appreciate you watching & commenting!

I seen the Sabine Queen 👸 yesterday, Today she must be getting it down with the Allen crew. Probably mud riding 😂🤣😜😬

Sorry to hear, next time Razorpee

@@LifeBeginsOnTheWater All good. It should be fixed tomorrow so I'll be riding with you in spirit. Lmk next time your down this way. Bimini 2025!

@Razorpee Good deal, yeah we had a blast today. Great turnout, probably 70+ skis today.

I totally agree, the color is absolutely beautiful. Specially in person, thanks again for commenting and watching. I appreciate you.

Absolutely Pate! Are you coming down for the Fall Mudbug?

@@LifeBeginsOnTheWater I wish. Have to work that Saturday.

@@davidpate76 Gotcha should have came up Thursday & Friday.

It truly is life changing to see in person Pate. Thanks again for watching

Right 😂🤪🤣, it’s doesn’t get any better!

@@LifeBeginsOnTheWater How was the crossing?

@@exploringourwaterways Pretty damn good going 2’-3’ chop nothing bad 3hrs crossing at 25-30 mph steadily. Crossing back 7 days later 1.5 - 2’ footers 2hrs. Lite work for sure!

Lol, it’s on so many PWC’s owners list Edward 😉. I appreciate the kind words Key Biscayne 2-4 hrs depending on conditions Usually with PWC only Last trip friend had his boat

So worth it! Throw rocks at most bodies of waters after your have seen Bimini Blue 😍. Thanks for watching & commenting

Heaven!

I honestly feel you can’t beat the water color, clarity, island or the Bohemian people. Thanks for commenting & watching!

@@LifeBeginsOnTheWater agreed 👍🏻

Thanks, I don’t have to tell you. We both know it’s hard to beat Destin Florida and it’s beautiful Emerald water

Well worth it! Panama City Beach, Destin To P-Cola has some amazing riding & places to stop along the way. I appreciate you

Fort McRee is pretty neat as well. Great place to hangout inside of a protected cove. The kids love the large sand hills to slide and roll down. A lot of great history in regards to Fort McRee

Thanks, yeah Destin Florida is hard to beat. Thanks for commenting & watching Ray.

It’s a trip of a life time for sure Ray. It should be on most PWC adventurer’s bucket list of destinations to visit. We were invited on this last crossing.

Lol, not sure why we haven’t Gregg 🤣😂🤪. Hard to beat that beautiful Sunshine State. We usually get a few weekends out of the year in that direction for sure. I appreciate you commenting & watching!

Edward, you’re welcome. I appreciate the support & commenting on my little channel. Wow 700 range on your 15F, you were putting in the work for sure. 2020 310lx great find, jealous for sure. Gina loves the older body style 07-2021 model years. We have only needed to replace the belt once from popping during a ride. The original belt had 479 hrs. The belt was replaced again when in the shop having the thur-hull assembly bearing changed (510hrs). That belt is currently still in use. Make sure to keep the idle bearing assembly greased. I still run the OEM exhaust filter. We changed the exhaust filter every 125-150hrs. We ride brackish & saltwater. I change the oil every 40-50 hrs max! I personally use Kawasaki full synthetic & OEM oil filters. No oil consumption still till date 733+ hrs. Never to many questions, glad to hear. Treat her well and she will do the same!

Thanks for the information. I saw your FL ride videos. That is where it all started for me and my 1990 650TS. I was in the Navy and put a ton of hours on that thing covering FL and AL. Hoped to make Mudbug this month but can't. It is on my list tho. I haven't been back to Pensacola riding since 2012. Hope to do that next year. Would love to meet up and ride if schedules allow. I am enjoying the 310lx but did not love the seat. Not much cushion. A lot of heat from the updraft exhaust. Long story but I did a complete swap of seat to the STX160x. It has worked out great. Will try to send you some pics if your site allows. Thanks again. The Jet Ski community is full of some great people!

I have been using Kawi Full Synthetic also. What are you fogging with? I saw JDs video which was great. I have been using WD 40 bc I had it. I picked up some WD 40 gel. Seems like good stuff. Seems to cling to stuff more. Not sure on fogging with that though

@edwardbowles8613 Your welcome, some of the best people you will ever meet when it comes to the PWC community. You can email me pictures for sure. [email protected] should work

@edwardbowles8613 Very good oil, I only use WD-40 from day one and never looked back. It doesn’t gum up the inter-cooler either. I make sure to rev / blow the water out of the Jetskis water boxes very very good before putting away for the next ride.

Thanks Pate!

Right, yeah my 2024 FX GPS at best around that 64ish. Very nice ski, hell I might replace it with another FX for 2025 year! Thanks for commenting & watching. I appreciate you

Sure will, Thanks 🙏🏽

Thanks Gregg, it’s worth it my brother. Little bit more loving to your girl and she will be fine after spending days in saltwater. I appreciate you commenting & watching. See you soon

Hard to beat Destin Florida water Pate!

@@LifeBeginsOnTheWater 💯 agree

Such a cool idea. Thanks for commenting & watching! I appreciate you.

Yeah it’s a cool idea someone thought of. We usually always make it a point to stop by. Most of the time there’s something neat for the kids and adults. How are you, family & Rob doing? It’s been a minute Thanks again for commenting & watching. I appreciate you

Super cool! JetSki ppl are the best!!

@davidpate76 Absolutely Pate! Hope you had a great Labor Day

If Kevin watches you beaching your jetski, he'll probably have to have a little chat with you 😂

@@timlott8569 That’s some funny sh*t, don’t care who you are. 🤣🤪😂 Probably right, thanks for commenting & watching. I appreciate you

I appreciate the kind words Gregg, young girl sure has been a great Jetski for us. It’s Gina’s baby for sure. 734+ hrs and counting my brother. She loves her Kawi! See y’all soon. Thanks for watching

The speakers on this bad boy you will impress you! They’re pretty damn loud, you will hear them at medium to full throttle. Thanks for commenting & watching. I appreciate you
