No Title

She's out on the water finally been sitting on her for years. She now has a Merc. 115 black max on the back, jacker plate, seats out of seadoo challenger, 25 gal. fuel tank. Led lights, new speedo, an depth sounder, cb radio. She scoots, just clocked 53 mph. Need to drop the nite a little to get the prop more into the water below the boat but once that's done she should hit 60 mph.
