Getting the itch again for another V King . Been a really long time. 1980. Im 62 years old now and watching your video's is bringing back all the memories.

Been waiting for the next video. Bad ass boat! Re-doing my first one this wimter with high hopes of having it on the water next season.

[@TNels]

Sorry it took so long. Needed some computer upgrades to edit easier. Good luck on your project!

[@stevejackson4136]

Really enjoyed your videos. Outstanding job. I’m in the process of redoing a 1979 Checkmate I found rotting in a North Ga salvage yard.

[@TNels]

Thanks so much! Good luck on your rebuild!

Congratulations man. You got that old stream running hard and looking awesome!

Nicest Hydrostream on UA-cam!!! Right decision with the shorter height sides. Looks better and adds functionality. If you do the Vector in the same Silver Blue Gelcoat maybe a Levi‘s Denim Style interior, like the 76-79 Jeeps had, would look great in there. Especially since you are already rockin the 76 Jeep Renegade Kidney Bean Mag wheels ✌️

[@TNels]

Wow thank you so much! I have a bunch of this flake left over but I’d like to keep that one the bruiser colors. I like the denim idea.

She's Beautiful

[@TNels]

Thanks!

[@darrelldoran509]

Would like to go for a foot behind it . Looks like a nice wake at 43 .

[@TNels]

My father and uncle used it as a dedicated ski boat for my entire childhood. I've watched them slalom ski and barefoot behind it for hours. I have a video of my dad barefooting behind it after I restored it on my page.

[@jeffwhitelock1013]

Seems like the hydrostream i was on did 105mph with 2.5 merc with a jack plate

[@TNels]

Sounds like a good time.

Shure this man didn't design and built the Space Shuttle ?
