I grew up close to about midway of your route and the only thing I can say is "Be Careful". By the time the water goes through the Dakota's, Nebraska and Iowa it earns its nickname as the Big Muddy and its undercurrent can be bad with whirlpools and floating debris. No one I knew swam or skied in that area but there are some monster catfish. Keep an eye on the rainfall in the upstream states but June should be to bad other than the bugs. Lol.....Good Luck.

My wife used to work with a couple of guys who raised money for an orphanage in the Philippines by jet skiing from Miami Florida to Bimini. This is about 55 miles over open ocean. They would get pledges for how far and how fast they could go with bonus points for completing the run. They would come back after four days so sore they could barely move and sunburned beyond belief (especially for two doctors) but really excited and come next year they would be ready to go around again. So be careful, this could get to be a tradition.

I don't know how much you have to deal with them in your neck of the woods, but they can get bad over here. The only proven repellents are the ones with Deet in them. Don't fall for any of these hippy brands or you will regret it. Can't wait to see how this goes!

Gentlemen, I have some experience riding a vintage jet ski long distance. (at age 50) I took a one day trip on a 1997 Seadoo XP from Bullfrog Marina to Dangling Rope Marina on Lake Powell - a distance of approximately 50 miles. It beat the crap out of me! I highly recommend wearing a back support brace and knee braces. Over that distance you will be alternating between sitting and standing, it was the best experience, but truly a physical challenge. I am sure you will make it the whole way! Looking forward to the video’s to come

Waverly Missouri, my hometown, population 800, is 1/4 way between Kansas City and St. Louis on the Missouri river. There is an annual canoe race along the river. The Missouri River 340, from Kansas City to St. Louis (technically, St. Charles) is something of a Wild West race, it takes about 4 days of paddling. The canoes have to finish in 88 hours. Some people paddle non-stop. The water level and current speed are determined partially by the amount of water released by the upstream dams. If it's a wet spring the river is fast. You will need some chase boats to assist you.

Both were too old to get him back in the boat, so she tied him to the side of her boat and towed him to shallow water then towed his boat to him. Take note, Hunter, those old folks might have to towed!

We have interstates and hwys in K.C. Ks. and K.C. Mo with the same number and name, so you have to say Ks. side or Mo. side. Kansas city Mo. surrounds a few smaller cities like an ameba. The river is not that fast but it has a strong undertow, and it is called the big muddy for a reason. Before it was channeled they would say it was a mile wide and a foot deep. June can be stormy, and the humidity is high. Hope I have a chance to see you all when you get here.

Sounds like a really fun trip! Is your theme music going to be "Deliverance"? Matt says he wants to go; so tell him to build a Jet Ski wrecker and he can join you. Ha Ha! Looking forward to watching the antics that will surely ensue.

This is a bad idea. These are two cycle engines, let them know. They are outlawed from being used in the lakes and rivers. Get a clue. Call me. I sent them my phone. I have 6 4 cycle Honda aquatrax. Lake Mead turned into an oil pit due to the 2 cycle engines. If you waded into the water you would get black oil drops on your legs. This was about 6 years ago. Now that the law is in place I do not get black oil spots on my legs. Especially at Boulder Beach.

"Things do not look good" re: 8-ball. Chances are that at least 2 of them will break down before St. Louis. Good luck, it should be a blast.

Well I think with the group of guys you have if something breaks you'll be able to rig something up and make it work and get it going again and if not there's always riding double good luck can't wait to see it God bless

We live in Alton Illinois. Just across the Mississippi river from Saint Louis. I will definitely buy raffle tickets. We had a Yamaha 1200 that our son hit a log on the river and sank it. I was a boat mechanic for 15 years. Worked on a lot of these. Our kids went to college over in Kansas. Yes the flying; carp is REAL. I cross the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers everyday on my way to work.

Going to be an epic voyage. I hope you have enough camera batteries so we don't miss any of the adventure. Hopefully Hunters surgery is healed completely and the bumps don't hurt him. Hope for no wind so the water will be smoother. I skied on the Ohio river twice and it was choppy both times enough to wear my knees out pretty quick. Although the waves from the barges were fun to jump. A thought comes to mind of years past, when driving old cheap junker cars, if it breaks down along the road just sign the title and leave it on the dash.

I have made that trip on a jet ski, a couple tips....some form of "cruise control" and beware of barges!! They tear up the water for a mile. Have fun

I recommend a taking a few kayak water pumps and pain killers ( put a big car wash sponge down low in the hull to soak up the water that gets in ) .The old time sailors used buckets and rum , but whatever. And a re-fuller for petrol ,oil , water and snacks for Hunter .At the finish line there will be. All seven skis will finish 2 with trailers and skis 2 being towed.

The chance of all of those ski's making the whole trip is about the same as you hitting the lottery 3 times in the same year! They are just like sleds, the rule of thumb is bring 3 of them if you want to be able to ride for the weekend, and you will still be working on all of them the whole weekend!
