1991 Kawasaki SC Revival.

This machine is incredibly unique, I knew when I saw it I would probably never have the chance to own another, and I needed to experience what was possibly the height of PWC creativity in 1991.

This one was a long time in the making, I got the SC over a year ago, slow progress but well worth it. I'm going to get this thing cleaned up and dialed in just right, haven't ever seen one before, figure it'd be pretty fun to rip around on this summer. And then I do have a whole pile of other stuff I should fix up or do something with

Excellent presentation Tom! Joe Hill

Thank you! It was a lot of fun getting this machine going!

That would scare the shit out of me riding that thing around in cold water. I know i would break down and have no way of getting back to shore

My wife brought a paddle to show her confidence that we would make it back. It ran decent, and wasn't sinking that bad by the time we got back...
