Bizarre contraption that thing is. Looks like someones interpretation of a 1960's SkiDoo snowmobile for the water. ....oddly enough long after Bombardier entered and briefly exited the PWC market.

I believe there were only 800 made (if memory serves) I remember seeing pictures of one on wooden boat site showing them being tethered to a '54 chris craft

Lol, yeah he's been advertising it for several months in the Tulsa/OKC Craigslists. Looks like a nice death trap when you fall off and have the prop mow over you!

PS - Woodonglass, it looks like we're living in the same 'hood (BA).

Re: Something you don't see everyday.

There was one for sale in Northern MI about a month ago. It wasn't as clean and had no motor. Asking price was $300.

He had listed a link with videos, it looked really fun to drive, albeit a little dangerous.

Showed my son and he said we should buy it. If it hadn't been 4 hours away it would probably be out in the yard.

2nd link doesn't work either unfortunately. Still have no idea what these things look like.

Thanks! That thing is nuts. I can see why they didn't stick around long :)

Re: Something you don't see everyday.

This moves along quite nicely. I like the rear facing seat and the fact that it has a friction throttle.

Re: Something you don't see everyday.

all | Ad Hunt'r - Search ALL of Craigslist™ and more!

probably the CL post in Oklahoma City -- $1,800, but listing apparently in process of being pulled down (may the iboats posts helps sell it for him!). No pic anymore, unfortunately.

adhuntr.com works well for mutlt area searches. may be others.
