nice one andy, the JD was a good score...

40 litres eh... for 160hp thats not bad. My boat which only has a 90 uses marginally more than that.
I know a guy who used to bring a ski out from Leigh to the Barrier for a while there.... He even sunk it on a mooring & parked it on the bottom of the bay for a night    It was a big HP Seadoo with the big grunta Rotax in it....

Thanks Karl, the JD was the first for me on the plastics. The fuel consumption is only 20 litres on the ski, you boat is looking a bit thirsty nowLOL
Let me know if you are heading out soon.

I recon this Saturday morning, from the Bay or even the Gulf harbour ramp if the weather is ****ty I am supposed to be getting my Piaaza Wood fired oven in this weekend though so if that turns up then no go.
Next weekend is demo time at the Hamilton Boat Show if any one is down that way call in. Stand 17 or there abouts and Yes Andrew I WILL HAVE MY Thai sweet chili with me. OK Bender???  
You guys get out andf enjoy it while you can cause the big guns are getting ready to blast em, The Big B from Yamaha and his mate Amateur tell me the waters gettin warmer, so they think its good enough to come for a fish.

Beer and pizza night at Dezza's. Cool.
Nobody has ever come up with a great idea after a second bottle of water.
