Title: 2011 Boatnik in Grants Pass Hydro's
Post by: GT Jets on July 06, 2011, 09:14:14 PM

Go Ryan! :thumbup:

Pretty fun hydro video. I drove these a few time in my much younger, much lighter days...It takes all you have in you to hold the throttle WFO while experiencing air....

The on board is from Ryan McGinnis in the trusty ole #44...

Good times. 8)

On a good riffle without a lot of wind, the mid 80's are achievable....But scarey. :screwy:

These guys average about 65-70 MPH on the choppy rivers... :o
