very sweet lookin toy.....I just think she loves ya... just my take from a father of 4 all grown and married and grandpa of 1 ...
EVEN THOUGH I lost all my tools, (even though the boys still say they don't know anything about it) and my hair I still think it was definitely worth it...
Happy Dads Day.....Remember almost any one can be a Father , but it takes a special man to be a Dad.
St James

I'd love one of those, but my three kids are too little to ride in it or to drive the boat so I can. Couple more years!

Happy Fathers day to all.

umm the recomended boat speed is 25 MPH and height is controlled by the rider ... " dont fly higher than you plan to fall" is their quote ... it comes with a 65 foot rope based on my calcs at a 45deg angle about 30 to 35 feet with good boat speed. Hope my adrenal glands are up for a challenge.

you arent strapped into it that would be a death trap that even I wont ride ... and that is saying alot.

You've got more guts than I do Brian! I've attempted water skiing before but man does that water feel like concrete when you hit it at high speeds... Congrats on the sweet present!

Happy Dad's Day guys!
