They gave us a pair of these puppies brand new, Kawasaki STX 15-f. Thats a 1500cc 4cylinder fuel injected bad boy. Kinda makes a D15 look funny in a car after looking at a similar motor sitting between your legs lol.
So had to run them in for 5 hours, just after the run in it made the magical 100km/h, but ever since its been hovering around 93-96km/h. Not bad consdering theres no gearbox.

Ill post up more later. Its taken me a month to even get that video ha.

Still hella fun all day
Oh and would have to be the most OSH Dissaproving lake element in the world.. meet, THE BLOB!

thats the coolest job ever!!!

I remember back in 2002-2003 getting a stock seadoo to about 110-120k on water, it has jet trim tho so you would trim it so it would change the jet angle etc.
think it was a 998cc rotax injection

yaa the Seadoos are amazing. HUUGE boats tho compared to the Kawasaki's.
The 1500 has s much torque. Heaps of fun thats for sure.

The Jet Skis we had last year were only 1200's, heaps of fun, but they would hit 100km/h all day every day. Not sure what the problem with these is. Im guessing the speedos arent that great.
We also have a Seadoo wake board boat we use to tow a banana boat Its not quick, does about 45mph but its heaps of fun too.

Haha figure it out

Camp is great, it is my second year doing the same job, so i guess me going back meant it wasnt half bad

I fractured a girls nose on the banana boat yesterday
Too many bumps + a knee. It was a gusher for sure!
