Nicely done, very nicely done. I think you have officially reached what is rightly called: The Pay-off!!!:D

The 'foam' bench seat is now kid tested, & kid approved too! Looks like it was everyone had outstandingly fun time! Well done! Really looking forward to seeing the Islander similarly tested!

Need to get the kids some Starmada hats. You know that legacies are often the 1st target for the other camp's recruitment efforts!:rolleyes:

Looks like the crew enjoyed some time on the water. :DX7 I'm concerned about your irresponsible actions though. Going 250 MPH and the kids have no seat belts. :eek: Course if the speed was indicated by a pitot speedo it was optimistic, prob more like 25-30 MPH. :p

I wanna see the same crew on the Islander later this summer. All in one pic. And flying at 250. LOL

I think you gonna be having fun on the Jet for a long, long time. Good one Jas.

AWESOME!!!!!! You are officially the coolest Uncle in the world (after me, of course). The looks on the kiddos faces is priceless and no video game, or iPhone app on Earth can beat it. I hope you're rich, because I got a feeling you're gonna be doing lots of driving to, from and on the lake this summer. Congrats!!!! ................so is it too early to start daydreaming about the next project? :)

Thanks fellas! Man we had a fantastic day!

The offspring were hollarin and screaming like we were on the world's biggest roller coaster:D

I also took the grandmas/grandpas out for a ride too. Nice and slow, just cruising, they really enjoyed it:)

Guys, these rigs are more than just metal, rivets and paint. Much more;):)
