[@mtyhntr49]

When it comes to water fun, it's easy to make friends. Happy New Years. I have a Flatbottom jet sitting in my back yard, it has a 460 powering the Berkley. Be safe out there.

[@tommymartin4827]

A jet powered by a Ford.. I forgive you

[@davidbutton8497]

Nice work Jerry. Bad ass. Boat. Day. Bringing out some hidden items. 22🔱

[@martinsmithjr.2777]

the VEE fills my need for speed and makes me weak in the knees!

[@jimmyk6336]

Jerry, your a wealth of knowledge, fun to hang out with and handy with the camera, well done!!!

[@vdrivevideo]

Thanks Jimmy!

[@jerrycoggin9434]

I remember! A New Years day 1970, maybe '71. Lake Pleasant Arizona with the Desert Boat and Ski Club. We used to call it Lake Unpleasant. A very, very cold and windy day. Most people were sitting in their pickup trucks with the motors running. Myself and a lady named Emily Chapple were the only two idiots to go skiing on that day. I was maybe 13 or 14 so I didn't have any sense but my friend Emily was a 36 and over women's competitor. She was a great racer and very dedicated to her sport

[@keonikaauwauole4499]

Hey Wade good to see you.This is Keoni the Samoan with the Green Kona .Cant wait til it warms up we will be out there..much Aloha

[@4stomper]

Awesome boats!

[@marksiegel374]

Funny most of the guys ,,,old dudes like me still rocking the hotrods..lol hope more 20 somethings get in the hobbie..

[@p51sleeper95]

One day my boat will be fast, gotta get rid of my 455 first. Awesome video

[@deanhilbig8606]

Wow, thanks man! God bless you all!

[@charlesscarvelli865]

Crazy bunch. Thanks

[@Drunken_Hamster]

A lot of these are super low, flat, and look purpose-built only for speed. So is it weird that my favorite is the much more conservative all-rounder at 20:30 and beyond? Looks plenty nimble, agile, and quick in addition to having a solid top speed, too, without looking like it sacrifices drivability in an ACTUAL boating environment as opposed to perfect glassy conditions.

[@michaelsymons9098]

we had 18 footer which was built in 1957 283 v drive which i put a powerglide in use to pull arms out of sockets when skying when it changed into 2 gear

[@maekennethbuenafe4737]

GN 24 Rayson craft. Looks like a boat named Mission completed built in 76

[@ciscokid77]

GN24 Boat was on it!

[@OneEye.]

Maybe I can make it next year and do a Polar Bear run.

[@jeffreymorris4827]

That reminds me, I gotta "P2" 🚬💣👽💩🚲🎣🇺🇸

[@merlinwag]

Great job on the marriage proposal. Congratulations. Is GN 24 a Rayson? It was laying down some nice passes. Looks like everyone had a nice day!

[@brocksperry450]

21 raysoncraft with some changes made on the bottom

[@Inflamez1371]

What kind of boat is the GN 86 grey ?

[@prtyof4156]

SperryWorx Boat was shittn' and gettin'

[@brihosk]

Guess on the top end speed of the #24 boat? Awesome video!

[@prtyof4156]

120 easy

[@jeffreymorris4827]

That's nice but can it pull a skier? 🚬💣👽💩🚲🎣🇺🇸

[@judechopper]

The boat at 27mins is out of balance, can be fixed by cav plates adjustment, as you see the boat lift and turn, that can be adjusted this guy just doesn't get it.

[@racefanwfo]

Is that lake elsinore

[@vdrivevideo]

Indeed!

[@remkojerphanion4686]

Hydrocarbon Heaven!

[@vdrivevideo]

Don't be ridiculous. Many of these boats burn methanol or E85 (both clean burning) and this happens once a year... Compare that to a dozen prius's driving every day for a year. smh

[@remkojerphanion4686]

@@vdrivevideo You obviously do not understand my comment.

[@brada4018]

Change that k to Q.
