wheres the steering wheel ?
the 2 front seats are detachable its a drag boat. 11 sec 1/4 mile he said he had it up to 95mph when we were in it and there was plenty more throttle left.

here is a pic of the steering wheel

We had one a few years back, ours had a 454 in it with a tunnel ram, those boats are death traps.

that is a jet boat if it sees 100 ill be surprized.. ALOT of the jet boaters out there SWEAR there boat will do 110-120-130-150 blahblahblah.. when most are talking outta there ***..

they are mostly just loud boats, that do go fast, but not as fast as some would think.. My old hydrostream did 100 with a 1976 v6 evinrude, but the motor had work, and had just the right prop.. and would smoke 90% of the jetboats out there..

Boats are my job, i kinda know a little about the subject
