Custom/Hybrid BOB-omb build.

[yamanube]

I think this is for sale, I don't have the time or extra money to finish it before winter.
$2,500 for hull, hood, rideplate, XM adjustable pole, bracket, chinpad, spring, midshaft and housing, hood strap, pump shoe (installed), pretty much any custom parts you would need to swap hulls with a superjet. No registration/HIN at this point. Can negotiate the price higher if you want more parts with the sale.

Well that sucks, ya didn't even get to ride it.

 

[yamanube]

I haven't ridden in two years, my own fault, just hasn't been a high priority. Sick of looking at this in my garage and feeling guilty for not finishing it.

 

[yamanube]

Sold this to another local rider today so hopefully he will get it done this season and I can steal a ride on it and post some finished pictures.

Got a new (to me) hull, and ordered most of the parts I needed from Jetmaniac. Now the race is on to get it all put together before the lake freezes, hope to get a few rides in this year.

Why?

 

[Scraggly]

water grabbers, face sprayers, only good for hood tricks. and look ghey lol

try it out first if you can no harm, and east to do after just wait to turf rails.

I've ridden the hull before, can't say I noticed any of those things. Unlikely I cut them off, even more unlikely that I turf the rails.

No worries. I like them off, but I also run a different bottom deck. I know that changes a lot love that color and glad to see another x jet floating around. They are sexy skis. I can grab pics now of hood. If still interested. It's a hack job for now. I need to make a liner ASAP I could build two if you are interested.

 

[Scraggly]

This is a first mock up of what I see needs improving for the type 4. My liner was already cleared for a center bleed 66e engine so never had the original to work with. Last pic shows where I will be clearing the hull when the engines back out. The type 4 likes room an likes to move.

The new owner pushed through and got the BOB up and running before our ride this weekend but didn't get a chance to turf it. I took it for a spin but without shoes it was hopeless, underpadding is crazy slippery. The owner had shoes and didn't seem to have too much trouble throwing it around, tossed a couple boat wake flips, attempted some flatwater flips and layed out a couple nice flat spings. It makes a 771 feel pretty strong.

Looks good, glad it got a heart transplant. Do you have a pic of the inside with new motor?
