Blaster pics...post em

[FLY6584]

Hey guys,

So I'm new to this forum, but I've been on PWCToday for a few months. I understand where everyone is coming from when they say PWCToday has become too commercialized, but there is still a lot of great info over there.

For all of the blaster guys out there, I know everyone remembers the "Blaster pics...post em" Thread in the Showin Off Forum on PWCToday. That has got to be one of my favorite threads. I think its up to 190somethin replys.

Anyways I was hoping we could start the same type of thread over here. It's always great to see all of the custom blasters out there. I would especially like to see all of the carbon blasters the lucky few have gotten their hands on.

By the way if anyone knows of a good blaster in the Florida, Georgia, Alabama area I am in the market for one. I made the mistake of selling mine a few years back.

Anyways it's nice to be apart of the new site and I hope to see some great pics.

wait you have one for sale but you want? one? i am confused

[keefer]

I was quoting a paragraph from FLY6584s original post where he asked if anyone had one for sale. I have one for sale, are you interested in buying a B1?

[h2odesperado]

ooo sorry I missed that.... I'd love a blaster, but, I am in no way financially capable of purchasing one... someday....

[FLY6584]

[DLMB12]

No, my friend that owns it did it. He has a graphic arts, sign, and painting company in NE Florida.

[FLY6584]

blaster800,

what do you think of those sponsons? did u put them on or were they already on their? have you ever ridden one without sponsons to see how they compare?

[blaster800]

blaster800,

what do you think of those sponsons? did u put them on or were they already on their? have you ever ridden one without sponsons to see how they compare?

I installed those ''painful install '' , i also have one without them , i feel they do help cause i have another blaster without them IMO . however you really have to be crankin to utilize them ! I think you need to ask a real racer for their opinion on these before you do a install ! im just a greatlakes wavehopper , not a bouy racer ! heres my other blaster http://www.pwctoday.com/showthread.php?t=67688

[FLY6584]

thats cool. i was watching your 800 thread until i got banned. maybe you should post some pics over here. i bet there are plenty of banned people who like to see them.

[scottie mac]

Here you go Fly-

The white #12 is my backup, Blue #7 is my buddy Jason's, White/red #2 is my primary race ski, the black/red #3 is my brother Joe's (joesuperjet) I have to get a pic of the Euro and resize it when I can.

Region 8 has by far the best looking blasters I have ever seen. Appreciate the pics. I was watching one of you alls races the other day on youtube and I cant believe how fast those blasters are.

I really wish I could build up my blaster to be competitive. My college student budget obviously doesn't allow for that.

One of these days I'll race a blaster. I just hope the sport class is around long enough.

[FLY6584]

This is a good thread !

Yeah I started this a while back because my favorite thread on PWCYesterday was one just like this. I'm hoping we can get as many pics in this thread as there are on the PWCYesterdays thread.

This thread is a great place for people to go to looking for ideas for their blasters. I really like all of the paint schemes Ive seen. I've got an idea of what I would like to paint mine and it incorporates a bunch of ideas I've gotten off a bunch of skis.

Well, if myself, my brother, and most of my friends have anything to say about it, we will always have a sport class. I have raced everthing, 1200, 785, ski and sport and had the most fun in sport. Besides, nothing is better than racing your family and friends. That is what was so awesome about Nashville this year, everyone on the line knew everyone else and we all looked out for each other. I didn't win, but a good friend of mine did. So, I was stoked. But next year, his arse is mine!!!! :)

How do you and Lee's mod hull ski's compare? Are they pretty much equal?

[FLY6584]

I've been trying to get Lee to post some pics of his skis, but I think he is being modest.

His avatar is just a teaser.

I wanna see some engine pics of ya'lls skis.

[scottie mac]

Lee's and my skis are identical in terms of shape. His is made of full carbon and mine is made of S glass with a carbon/kevlar inner liner. I think his is a little lighter than mine, but not much. I always thought that Yamaha made a huge mistake not bringing this hull to the market. It hooks up and handles so much better than a stock blaster it isn't even funny. Had they brought this hull with a 760 engine to market, I truly believe sport class woudl be MUCH larger. HXs kind of killed the sport class because they aren't really good for much other than racing, where a Blaster is fun on the course, play riding, surf ridng, etc, etc, etc!!!

Scott

[Water Worx]

Yeah ...Even 720 HXs still win sometimes.LOL:woot:

Yeah I followed the sport class very closely in the mid-90's with Farthing, Judge, Mac, Motzouris, etc. Those were the days. At the time I was about 12-13 and I was getting ready to race my blaster when I turned 14, but before I turned 14 the age was changed to 16, unlike it is today with a juniors class which I think is great for the sport. Anyways by the time I turned 16 I had focused on what all 16 years old think about so I sold my blaster and superjet to put the money towards a car. Thinking back on it I really wish my parents would have changed my birth certificate so I could have raced earlier like Farthings parents did for him. Oh well.

A lot of people hate the HX b/c they think it killed the sport class, but thats racing. Like you said Yamaha should have come back and put a mod style hull into production to compete with the hx's. I think if they would have done that racing overall would be a lot different today. Instead they focused more on the Runabouts.:thumbsdown:

I want to give a big thanks to guys like your crew in Region 8, Lee, Waterworx, Phil (Blaster212) (I know I'm leaving some out) for keeping the sport class alive.

P.S. Where can I find some better coverage of the sport class races like pictures and videos. I would really like to see some videos of the Nationals sport class motos. The sport class just doesn't get the attention it deserves.

[FLY6584]

If I won the lotto one of the first things that I would buy would be a Wamiltons Mod Hull Blaster with brand new OEM Top deck (I think he has like 2 new top decks left from a supply Yamaha gave him back in the late 90's) with a Judge Stoker Lamey, TL, Mag pump, etc.

Hell thats only about a $20K-25K boat. Thats still a lot cheaper than what a lot of people have in these freakin runabouts.

[jetskiking]

Scott and his crew have some really nice equipment. Got to check out there stuff in Nashville. Scotts ski literly just walks off and leaves everybody if you can hang on:biggrin:

Any more info on this hull or pics. I'm a new blaster owner and would love to race one day if budget/time permits. I'm sure its spendy, but any info would be nice. THANKS!!
