The boat could have yanno went the opposite way the fing plane was landing
For $50K+ you should get non slip swim deck cover, clip in bumpers that actually stay clipped in, SIDE ENTRY (for the love of...not all of us live in FL), rear entry (it's already there, it's 2 drill holes and a printed clip) and some sort of graphics wrap other than plastic fantastic, also the Bimini folds forward (good luck going into a boat lift blind). It seems like half the engineers at BP don't actually own boats or like water.
beautiful
Relative to value boats today, do you think a WT-1 is a good used boat option for a small family?
@@ajdizzle4shizzle In general, yes. That comes with the caveat that every used boat is an individual. Despite even the very best pedigree ( brand names, dealers) , a used boat’s value is highly dependent upon the previous owner’s use and maintenance regimen. We always recommend hiring a surveyor, and/ or a mechanic, to help buyers who may be unsure when making a used boat purchase decision.
Of course, totally understand your comments with regard to the inherent risk in purchasing a used boat. I phrased the question wrong…I was really trying to get an understanding of the wave that the WT-1 produces relative to “value” wake boats today, and if the WT-1 wave is comparable or not. Would adding a suction gate have improved the WT-1 wave much with full ballasts? You all produce excellent content! Much appreciated
@@ajdizzle4shizzle Maybe. Its a good boat. It creates wakes and waves. It offers some good features.. But, its never going to allow pursuing watersports at the highest levels. So, you need to ask yourself what your abilities are, and what you hope they will be. Realistically, for many people, this boat will serve just fine.
Well I stay in South Africa if I was right I will bay one
Could it really be that a twin 200 V6 installation is more quiet than a single 400? I'm considering a twin 200, but am skeptical about the noise of two engines.
@@runewinsevik8471 It can be. One thing to consider is that you’ll run a twin engine boat at a generally lower rpm to achieve the same cruising speed ( on any given day) as the single.
@@runewinsevik8471 There’s also the math involved with sound( which we are no experts with). Simply stated: doubling the sound sources does not double the sound level. It takes exponentially more sound sources to double the sound level. Here’s a link to the science: pressbooks.pub/sound/chapter/decibels-the-math/
I have the utmost respect for Reggie Fountain! The man, the myth, the legend! However, it pains me to correct him on one technical detail. The Bravo drive was not unveiled until 1988. The original drives on his 10 Meter were in fact Mercury TRS, which utilized an intermediate transmission for shifting. The later Bravo’s shifted (F/R) via a cone clutch within the drives upper gear case.
Sea Doo continues to make trash.
Is it activated?
Good times!
Would this work on a spa that's been without a cover for a few years?
If it’s made of gelcoated fiberglass ( like most boats) yes. If it’s made of acrylic, do some more research.
Really wish they had NACS now that the automotive industry is switching to that.
I wish yamaha made something like this
I wonder how these props would do on pulling power? Such as an upper Midwest waterski show teams 20’ Legacy/Hydrodyne/Dyna-Ski, triple rig designed and built to pull many skiers at the same time. 🤔
Coolest boat ever! Thank you Reggie! A true legend.
This video implies that we should inflate to the pressure on the sidewall. Tire manufacturers have load/inflation charts based on the weight the tire is carrying. The side wall advises of the maximum load tire pressure.
Inflating to maximum cold pressure on the sidewall is the recommendation of boat trailer makers such as EZ Loader and Load-Rite. Ex: www.ezloader.com/images/20160915/b54f99b8678f2ac60e8ea9d3bfec73e9e0e6e07e.pdf And: And: www.loadrite.com/resources/faqs/ While there is often more than one " right" way to do things, on this issue we stand with the boat trailer manufacturers recommendations.
Excellent. Maintenance on current PWC engines is a pain.

Do that Sh*t at home. The only advice for people with those boats is to back the thing up more than 2 times a year. The part of the fishing season that sucks the most is when you start seeing those kind of boats.
Too expensive!
At this price point, the lack of ability to power it with twins is a miss I think.
👏
The Ho Sports Nova is a GREAT tube for sling shots and getting people outside the wake. Kids love it.
Thanks for your feedback. Fellow boaters appreciate it, we’re sure.
The you for the simple straightforward instructions. !!!!
Hello, Mr. Decker! You are so knowledgeable! The United States Coast Guard must be so thrilled to have had your expertise for so long. Wishing you continued success throughout the remainder of your illustrious career. Most sincerely, thank you, Spree!
I recognize that water! Fort Myers.
SeaRay needs a 210/215 with a cuddy And a outboard.
21 Cuddy Cabin boats are scarce in recent years. Beneteau, Stingray and Century offer 23 footers. The Axopar 22 Spyder offers a head, but not a cuddy as is typically thought of.
4 stroke right
Yes
Underrated video!
Beautiful spot. Love going there. Great narration Captain Brock
I've gotta get one of these 😁😁
😂😂😂 someone forget to pick up the anchor? 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
vlog these please
We have now Mercury Twins V12 600HP. I am exited how will they perform. If you want to see them, I did a Video of them here kzread.info/dash/bejne/rHaamNmrfMaYg6Q.htmlsi=L2Oc9WuEUmIFzsJx
Why aren't layouts like this on sailing cats?
Slow .
Got to love the switch! We will be buying ours in three months😊
Awesome
I'm good thanks...fjb lgb
Donzi hit a home run on this boat
really nice boat and a great walkthrough as well. Lake Allatoona has the best striped Bass in the region!
I just wish my Yamaha's front hatch was that accessible...
That guy washing & panel prepping is missing about 40% of all his surfaces lol. And Randy as a seasoned boat detailer I can tell you that is a 2 day 2 guy job if it’s done correctly, and that’s with 2 guys that do this for a living
I always over reach
Microwave in the V Berth?, what happened to it being in the galley?
I've noticed Centurion doesn't seem to come with any pre-sets for wakeboarding? Do you just program everything in yourself through trial and error? Just curious, because that's a lot of ballast bags to play with figure out the sweet spot.
I would have thought the 90hp would push it at least 45 mph. Im looking at a Sportsman 1710 with a 70 Yamaha.
