Another thing to bring on the river: extra fuel and safety blankets to keep you warm if you do get stranded. River water gets cold real quick
@Cryptic Chris 21 Yeah--rain gear, maybe some way to cover the cockpits. Every time I go on some adventure I end up in some kind of bad weather and being wet and cold is no fun.
@Cryptic Chris 21 Lol.
A basic lightweight tarp is useful in many ways like: Pull into land and hide the whole bunch of people under it til storms over. Or hide a failing boat until recovery. But should they fit lights to their boats?
Arizona would like to have a word.
One of those 2 man tents wouldn't take up much space either. Throw one under a seat
Maddie being optimistic about everything is golden.
she's a sweet heart
Seriously she is a real one !
Need to clone her asap
Well keep in mind even if they totaled out the boat they're still making more money off the youtube video than the boat even costs so.... #millionairproblems I'd be smiling too :)
She like a goldenretever ready to go have have. Sorry can't spell or think currently in sugar crach/sock
You need a true marine GPS like a Garmin Echomap on both boats, so you can see where you are and follow your trails, and windshield wipers on Cleetus’ boat if it’s expected to be the recovery vehicle.
Thinking the same, plus tonneau covers with some sort of cockpit heaters, poor old Maddie looked cold towards the end.
Better to just learn how to read the river instead of hitting every rock possible.
Also light bars...to shed some light on their situation
Rain-x is good enough
A vhf radio to talk with james ‘ boat too
Maddie is such a trooper, and she has a titan grip on that recorder. makes A wild ride look smooth with crocs up on the dash and everything :)
She needs to stop putting her feet up on the dash. We had a lady that had both her legs broken from doing just that when they hit a rock. Compound fractured legs way out in the wilderness can get life threatening really fast.
Weird ya I had a friend that shattered her hips from that in car accident. Something to be aware of at least!
Its pretty cringy to watch her feet on the dash,so many ways to get hurt sorry to be a Debbie downer
There's no airbag so at it should be a little safer but nevertheless I can see everyone's point.
He needs to put in something they can have their feet pressed against down in the hull.... Then she doesn't need to have her feet up on the dash to stay in the seat.
This man sees ripples on the surface and goes right for em like he’s playing connect the dots 🤣sent with love 😂
Dude I really actually kind of thought the same thing
Thats one heck of a good advert for those boats. Seriously impressive they can take that much hammer and keep right on going. The shaft is just something that can happen but the fact the hulls haven't breached or even the welds split while hitting all that is amazing.
these Style boats Are a must in the swamps of Louisiana
I ordered one after seeing the first video of them finished, now I'm ordering a second so we have have a pair of them.
@@zukgod can you get me one since your just ordering em left an right like big macs
@@zukgod How much does a boat like that cost? And what’s the maintenance cost like? Gotta appreciate their build quality. Took all those hits like a champ
@@ikecostner1 swamp weed blocks the intake of a jet unit real quick .I know!
I can’t believe he spends all day busy filming awesome content for us, and is probably tired after all the adventuring, and still edits the videos and uploads himself, what a true sender, thank you good ol cleetus
“I don’t get those dents buffed, pulled or painted by nobody, them way to valuable.” -The great tow mater
quite frankly i thought he was trash at reading lines but then again i drive a jet boat 90 days a year as my job
@@willhillman7451 honestly its like his purposely hitting everything. I hope he realizes eventually his going to get a hole in the boat lol
cleetus may do it all but like the old saying goes, a jack of all trades is master of none. I love it that hes living his life having a blast but man I wish he would just focus on what he does best. time spent on this trip, he could be dialing in the elco instead
Holy nostalgia
@@dookiebooger9967 I think Ol' Cleet should stick to enjoying himself so he does not burn out and become tedious to watch. Maybe he does not want to be a master at drag racing.
Cleetus see Bald Eagle: tear in eye
Bald Eagle sees MTN. DEW jet boat: tear in eye
I love how happy James' wife was when Cleet drenched him with the jet
While he was trying to take a leak nonetheless! Come on man! 🤣
@Phuq Ewe Yeah, well he spent that entire time getting towed back to the ramp getting blasted by the roost anyway lol
Jackstand was kicking himself for not getting a windshield.
when i saw that part of the video I was DYING
I read this comment right before seeing what you were talking about... HAHAHAHA
I think we all were thinking the same lol.
Good thing for James ol Cleeter leads everyone. James boat still looks like new. Cleeter boat looking like it was dragged to the river as he hits every rock in the river.
Looks better without windshield, just get some good goggles
I hope everyone is enjoying their memorial day weekend, and remembering those who gave their lives for our freedom 🤘🙏
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes i hope as well.
How many veterans didn't get their military funeral this year? My grandfather didn't he was a marine.
RIP John Chapman
RIP Marcus Lundgaard
@@Freekniggers I know we're still doing them, might just depend on the area... We have a Funeral Honors Det that's constantly working, it's their full time job
Ole Cleeters disposition is amazing. No matter what he’s always in a great mood and happy as can be. I’ve had a rough couple of months and just the excitement he has in every video has definitely helped keep my spirits high.
Yuuup--between Cleetus and Derek (Vice Grip) they get me through what's become an awful grind at my job that I can't walk away from yet, but soon.
I think its called editing.
@@zippySquirrelface it is but he has just as much fun in a 15 second cobalt as he does in a 7 second corvette. He’s just a naturally happy outgoing person.
@Garret Lux he for sure has had everything work out well and I’m sure having money helps with not worrying as much. He’s just a happy person and gets excited about even simple things and it’s a nice change of pace from most things nowadays.
Qa
Add towing point near waterline in front, the lower it is the better. And towing line point at back, as close as steering pivot axle as possible, not in front of that point.
I was going to suggest the same weld on some tow hooks/loops front and both rear sides
Bald eagle was like “hey thats the guy who named his website after me”😂😂
Highly suggest some white water river reading/running/and rescue training before you go out west! Things can get very real very fast in white water. That stuff in this vid is class 1....its a whole nother world out here! Looks like a freaking blast!!! Keep it that way!!!
No kidding. Especially if they head up here in Alaska. Don’t break down or flip. You’ll freeze real fast if your out to late. Or be eaten alive by mosquitos.
nah man they gonna go up there like the mfrs in the movie without a paddle.. "i hear you're a river guide, class 4, 5?" "ah huh, yea put them numbers together, class 45" 😆
You nailed it Snoman...!! You can tell by the lines he is taking he is a novice on reading a river... It is a talent, just like racing his Drag cars...
I would highly recommend not messing around on the lower salmon or upper snake . Serious rivers that if you hit a rock your welds definitely wont survive it.
That little creek in Tennessee has nothing on our Idaho rivers.
Can jack stand get a GoPro in his boat I think we all would love to see him bog deep
I think Amber films also need to use her footage.
We don’t need jack stand to end up like cooper! 😕
@@bradgarlington2304 what happened with cooper
@@bradgarlington2304 literally nothing wrong with that, they are still very good friends. Stop making up drama that doesn’t exist.
I second this!
The best thing you can do for both of the boats, is to put an eyelet half way between the waterline and the bow of the boat. If you need to get towed again, it will stop the nose of the boat being pulled toward the water, thus making it a little less sketchy whilst towing
that is a good idea it will keep the nose up
James never grins this big. He's ear-to-ear talking about his broken boat
What a life!! True American dream!!! Life goals!!! Kick ass as per usual Cleet!!
Month of freedom is so bittersweet on these last days..
Brother check the comments on the last vid we're getting an extra week added to the Month of Freedom brought to you by Bartle Skeet
Its been extended.. So bittersweet can wait till next week!
Word in the street is that it will never end. Month of Freedom 4EVA
Extra week or not, Its not gonna be the same once its over..I've gotten so used to having another video each day!
how is it any different
My life's axiom - > "Better to have it & not need it, then need it & not have it" -> gotten me out of some tough situations!!
Hey brother, a better way to say it is “it’s better to be looking at it than looking for it”
Absolutely
100% ditto
It doesn't get anymore majestic than bald eagles flying side by side with an adolescent giraffe piloting a jet boat
They were guiding him, I was disappointed we didn't get any eagle screeches straight up.
Underrated comment right here brother!
LOL
@@jay_wright If you're talking about the screech at the beginning of the video....it's a Hawk screech. Bald Eagles do more of a cackle.
@@hobman way to be mr buzzkill mcgee on the technicalities, take that shit back elsewhere, were enjoying life over here.
This is what people live for, boys. This is freedom. You'll have that on these big jobs.
@6:41 🎶🎶 the weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed. If not for the courage of the fearless crew the minnow would be lost 🎶🎶 lol
The suprising part is how well the wraps held up under all that abuse. They still look mint from the waterline up.
Yep the bottom of the boats is what got hit the hardest, and it looks like they have added plating under there.
There's nothing like seeing a bald eagle while going down the river. I think I see at least one everytime I go and it's great everytime.
S.w.i.m. was tripping down the walhonding river in Ohio and a bald eagle followed us all the way down. They got pics to show it wasn't just the trip. Made us proud to be american. Lol
Central Indiana has LOADS of them. Glad they are making a strong come back. We see them everywhere.
Went to a outdoor gun range and I happened to be the first guy there, shot my rifle and a bald eagle flew over the range. Shit was so patriotic I had a full freedom boner
@@gearbanginentertainment7476 you must be slow. Keep drinking that manifesto.
I see at least 20 bald Eagles every day
idk why but James getting blasted by the water was the best part of my day so far. Thank you James for the sacrifices you make
i spend the last 5mins trying not to laugh at the sight of james shacking the water off with a big smile on his face
as hilarious as it was, I can't figure out why they stayed in his boat. and didnt get in Cleet's. not like he can steer the thing and would have towed with a much higher bow had the weight not been in it.
Funny how the dynamics of a trip change like that; on the way up the river hitting those rocks/bumps was laughing-good-time...on the way back each one raised the anxiety even higher.
I don’t think that was a bald eagle, I think that was Ed.
100% Ed
Best comment ive ever read!! Fly high Ed!!
Damn right!
Love James’s attitude over the whole situation.
Serious question: I wonder how many times people searched “Mountain Dew boat” after watching Cleetus go by and not knowing who he is…lol
😂😂😂😂😂🥴
DO IT FOR DALE, HELL YEA BROTHER!!!!
Fella, I'm a Tennessee native... All us folks know who He is.
Y'all come back now, she might bite yah sometimes, but she does it cause she loves yah.
There’s no telling but I grew up on those rivers and this is the first time I’ve ever seen any powered watercraft go all the way to the dam on the ocoee. That’s just something you never see! And it’s their first trip 😂
Like you will have some flat bottom jet boats that may play around on the hiwassee towards 411 but never as far up as they go
Gone learn today!
Honestly, Jetstream should keep sponsoring you with new hulls, welded up, as long as you want to keep promoting their brand. I know I'm interested, and had 0 previous interest.
Really, that's not much different than Cleetus blowing up Texas Speed engines. It's all publicity... and that sells products.
Legit this ! Been researching how to turn my boat into a jet drive 😂😂
This made me want to go buy a jet boat. 😂
Thank you so much guys. Today has been 13 hours of absolute hell at work to top off a really crappy month. I'm so beat and I hurt so bad I don't even want to take a shower right now but you know what? The month of freedom isn't over and at least I have an awesome video from you guys to watch. It really does make my day! You guys are the freaking best! Do it for Dale and Ed! You guys are a true inspiration for so many and I'm so grateful that you guys do what you do! 👍
Combing Cleetus with adventure shows is your one stop shop 🤙
2:12 “WE RIDE TILL DAWN!” - General Cleatus
I’d follow general cleet. into battle!
the jet boats need a CB radio with a speaker so you can talk and listen while driving, and the big whip antenna on the rear deck lid will look awesome
Well, FRS not CB, with the new FRS rules you might as well blast it.
I love how having extra parts is the only option to continue. Most people would just go in deeper water, but Cleet and Jackstand are guna keep it sketchy for us......lol
I sort of hate extra parts. Feels like something just to keep month of freedom going. Could have been an epic 30min episode instead
@@liiiinder ??
@@JohnnyAnderson1 21min episode yesterday 14min today. Would rather have them as one without the cliffhangers
@@JohnnyAnderson1 Hahaha nvm, Im stupid... I was thinking about month of freedom and extra parts as extra video parts 🤣
Love how absolutely positive James always is.
Ocoee and Hiwassee Rivers + mating pairs of Bald Eagles - welcome to one my favorite parts of the planet, Cleetus! Great videos documenting a great adventure. Happy Memorial Day, Brother - in memory of many, in tribute to all whose sacrifice make the Freedom Factory possible!!!
Dear Garrett and Madi: Once you guys get married it won't feel any different really. You'll look back on stuff like your Tennessee jet-boat trip and remember oh that was before we got married! and it'll be a nice memory. These are great days ya'll are livin, friends and family, dogs and jetboats. Cheers and very best wishes from Knoxville TN!!
Florida girl, in Knoxville!!
poop
Chattanooga Here :)
Canada
Grew up in Oak Ridge then Chattanooga, now cali. man i miss those rivers. Wonder if anyone told them they filmed Deliverance on the Hiawassee? Watch out for them banjos.
Imagine Lewis & Clark seeing Cleet literally running up river over rocks and trees and shit. Our boys Lewis & Clark spent days carrying boats upstream.
Cleet would have been killed by the natives or by the wildlife.
Artemis cleetus would’ve spit mtn. Dew in their faces and laughed as he drive away in his supercharged jet boat screaming America
Crazy what guys did to follow a woman back then!
And breaking down within a day. Impressive.
That tiny creek is nothing like what Lewis and Clark had to navigate. Big water in Idaho will eat those wanna be jet boats for lunch.
The best part about Matty filming is her riding shotgun giggling as Cleet sends it. Also cheetah print crocs... She is the freaking Florida woman for Cleet.
I was thinking the same thing! Great attitude! Zero bitching! I bet James’s old lady was raising hell!
I think James wife has just as much fun. She had the right idea during the towing ducking down
Maddie*
@@tamarastephenson8985 I like her.
James wife wouldn't be there if she wasn't into it. These women are ride or die.
That's the whole point. Don't feel the fear. It'll overtake you. Push forward. Love it y'all keep er' going
Getting caught in that storm has got to be one hell of a story to tell. What an amazing adventure you caught on camera.
Broken drive shaft. You'll get that on these big jobs.
Top notch video as usual sir but a little disappointed you didnt take the opportunity to dub over a bald eagle Screech when you saw an actual bald eagle
That's what I'm saying screeeeechhh
Because bald eagles don’t screech? That’s a red tail making the screech you’re thinking of.
Issa duck 🦆
Whoever the idiot is editing the video always gets it wrong by using a Hawk screech....it's call the dumbing down of America.
With the closing of the month of freedom rapidly approaching it has been great thanks Everyone.
Now let’s talk future how about
“ SUMMER OF FREEDOM “ ? 😂👍
HELL YEAH FOR SUMMER OF FREEDOM
The “broken driveshaft I didn’t even know that was a thing “ got me 😂😂😂
Thankyou for taking is along on your epic journeys, when I get on utube and go through my options of new content, cleet is always the first I watch! Makes it very better that there's daily content. It's been consistent and I appreciate it, truly
Ok now I've seen it all, a "Giraffe In The Mist", waving to an Eagle.
Never thought I'd want to hear Rrrrrreeeeeeee for 10 minutes straight
💀😂 FACTS
I’m gonna have to go watch a finnegan fox videos afterwards so I can wean myself away from it 🤗
And the occasional Crunch from hitting the rocks lol
Perfect timing I just lit up a joint
fuck yea
Same lol
Junky
Took a dab
@@Mikdugal1 virgin
Idaho and Alaska trip??? You sure are living the good life Cleetus, don't take it for granted my brother.
I'm late to the party, but damn!... Cleetus is approaching "Whistlin Diesel" levels of endurance and structural integrity testing
Just made it to the end.... if you need a winch to get your boat, not jeep or 4x4, unstuck....
I'd consider investing the time to get the bolt heads sunk a little deeper into the protective plastic layer under the boat. They sit quite high and I already saw one half ripped out and bent on a previous video. Once the layer starts wearing out a little more and you hit more rocks it might make a mess of it.
I find this statement riveting and flush with deep thoughts
Love having this bell on for the month of freedom
Might want to check the old nuts and bolts in those jet boats after this at 59 secs there is one almost loose on the left side of the windshield those teflon nuts shouldn't back off but that one is.
It looks like they took the windows out when they did the wrap. I’ll bet they reused the old nuts instead of replacing them.
Cool to see ol Cleeter got to enjoy Tennessee. Alot more water up here to explore! Come back anytime!
You should add Lake Powell to your list of destinations. Almost 2000 miles of coastline, lots of small tributaries and canyons. It's awesome!
That’s so cool that Cleets spirit animal showed up for the fun
@speedypuma1 lmfao I'm dead 😂
They have giraffe in TN?
@speedypuma1 if only giraffes made bald eagle noisey
how long until they find out that people put huge v8's in those boats, rollcages and race them at small tracks...? And they have to build some.
What about Finnegan's jetboat? That's a monster!!
Seeing as how cleet is one of the only people other than finnegan to drive game over, id say hes aware. Lol its only a matter of time.
i was just thinking on the video before last when they were loading them up at the freedom factory, that they could build a jet boat track, could probably do it in that back lot where they made that dirt track, save that large area out front for something else (like a new workshop)
Drag boats are one thing, but I think OP is talking about sprint boats. Those are a different breed entirely. I used to watch those guys run in Marsing, Idaho. Crazy fun.
It gets even better - there's 1000-2000HP jet turbine powered jet boats that race up rivers doing upwards of 140MPH
Search "turbine jet boat" for the good stuff
Need to put some Rain-X on the windows
Some LED spotlights probably wouldn't be a bad idea either.
We just finished a sweet super long river run in Ontario Canada. Best day ever! I'm running a prop on a 55 feathercraft vagabond the river is ten feet deep but way back in the boonies time couldn't be more well spent!
This is turning to the most enjoyable "rich people" problems, i love it.
Hell yeah brother. First world problems are a MF'er but makes great content. Content is what brings in the money. Good content is what us consumers want to watch. Win for everyone. Sometimes it's painful to watch the destruction but a lot less painful than watching Whistlindiesel destroy nice things on purpose.
@@boosted95 yes, and yes. 🤔👍
I was very sceptical of these builds, came out much better than I thought so getting full on my words.
Busch lite definitely needs a windscreen.
How are yall getting by without hull numbers displayed on the boats? Especially when you are talking to DNR...lol
Might have a number board like on an inflatable dinghy.
Because they aren't long enough to need one.
Yeah certain requirements don't need to be fulfilled unless you must meet the requirements not everybody does just because of certain stipulations like they listed already each state gets weird and the government itself whether we're talking about state or federal is just weird in general
@@Shornandkenny
Tennessee law requires that all mechanically powered vessels (including federally documented recreational vessels) and all sailboats which are principally used in Tennessee must be registered
@@michaelmcclure8673 their boats are not principally used in TN.
These jet boat videos are the absolute best!! Content is great keep up the good work
Welcome to Tennessee, Cleetus. It grows on you.
As a fiberglass boat owner.. I cringed every time they hit something lol. I’m amazed at how much abuse those boats will take, wow.
“Drops everything I was doing immediately clicks on video”
I dropped my blunt ahah
Except your phone which was the only rhing in your hand?
yess haha bout dropped my doctor pepper haha shoulda had a mountain dew
Same
@@bmxlover917 no bro. mountain dew is cool to say but dr pepper is way better.
Can't wait to see how you and Maddie plan for your wedding if doing stuff like this is your every day life 😲
You guys are killing at the month of freedom I wanted to be the year of freedom Come on guys we're having so much fun Best month ever
Leave the dent! Nothing but a great adventure! No mistakes! JUST PURE FRIENDS & FAMILY FUN! Just bring wet weather gear next time. CONGRATS!
TN does have bald eagles on the rivers and amazing to see in person. Beautiful area and thankful to call home. Amazing content
They are so small tho
@@AceFoxxii Seen some pretty sizeable Bald eagles down the stretch hes talking about, from reliance to the lower ocoee. I frequently kayak the spot. beautiful area
You have to get Finnegan down to ride so I can watch him make one in his garage after u get him hooked
Do it for Dale
Put tow hooks front and rear on both so youre not tying off to hand rails. Eventually you will bend them. Also, bottom of the boats look like the bottom of my SXS.
Hey that's us in the pontoon on the ocoee!! That was badass seeing y'all come through! I need to do that! You let me run that boat and I'll put you guys in a dirt late model! Cool stuff for sure. Glad we made the video cut.
What a wild ride ! Good thing you had one good boat in the end, double mechanical failure could turn out real bad from a survival standpoint. I haven't the first clue about what you guys would need for a night stranded on a riverbank, it would be so sketchy once dusk started hitting. You guys a going hard here, kudos from Ottawa Canada, big up sick channel here, enjoy this content so much, good luck with the repairs. P.S. I fix SeaDoo pumps all the time on my channel and I am really surprised that you can have so many rocks through your pump without serious damage to the wear ring and impeller. Having a spare pump...or two or three...would definitely be a great idea. Wow, what a riot !
9:26 that dude dumping his whole shoe full of water out had me rolling 😂
Okay there's no way you can end the month of freedom without giving us at least one more week of freedom filled adventures .. Please... There's just no other channel on UA-cam that compares
Don't worry brother, check last video, were getting a week extension!!!
There's just a thin line between bravery and stupidity ..
Lmao@M....yah...the line gets crossed when you hear..."Hold my beer...watch this"...
Lol..👌🇺🇲🇨🇦
No guts no glory. I'm 40 and a full time single dad but when I was young we gavver. I regret nothing.
As a guy that has been down Alaska rivers and grew up here my entire life you guys better bring a lot of extra stuff! It’s gets way rowdy up here 🔥
I thought i misheard him at first as that is a long way to go just for some rapids, sure he can find as good ones closer to Florida?
McFarland marine will be back stronger. And thanks Tennessee men for helping out old Cleets.
You are light years away from being ready for Alaska. And not just parts. You need several days of survival training. You should get with Josh Enyart. Check out his Channel. Gray Bearded Green Beret. Gives classes you should take before even considering backwoods Alaska.
What you had here could turn fatal up there.
My brother had the river bite badly on AK. Flipped his jet boat and nearly died going under the boat. It's NO joke in AK.
@@nostranger2u It's the same way up here in Idaho. I'd hate to see any of them get hurt or worse.
Roll cages and some sort of triaing would be a really good idea!!
Yeah Tennessee rivers dont play. Glad to see yall in my neck of the woods
Definitely needed to wait for them to let the water out of the damn before hitting the Hiawassee!
Cmon Cleet! @ 3:25 That woulda been the most perfect moment EVER, to freeze frame and dub in your bald eagle screech sound effect!
I've found this information to be helpful. When you reach half tank it's time turn back around unless you have extra fuel or know where you could get some fuel.
Started out sketchy and wound up as an episode of dumb and dumber, unfortunately, I've been there and done that! It isn't the severity of the screwup, but rather, it's the quality of the recovery!
The broken driveshaft probably saved a broken engine when something jammed the jet pump. As for the downturn in the weather, shorty wetsuits and firestarting materials would be a wise choice.
Imagine you look out your living room window and there's cleetus mcfarland in his jet boat! 😂🙃
This river looks like where jet boats come to die 😭
Totally full of junk!! Way bigger and better in the pnw.. next time maybe..
Looks like fun,I think I'll live vicariously through your boating hijinks
Love your adventures brother, what i really love is, you show the ups and downs of jet boating... It's like the rivers of life, we all hit some rocks on the way down- its how we take them that counts. Thanks for not editing the trials out... It makes the joys all the better. Stay safe brother.🤗🇺🇸love dem Eagles🦅🦅
Best advice my dad ever gave me boating, "any time you take the boat out carry a spare of everything, something will almost always break!"
Haha I took my boat out, had an extra distributor and everything, it literally spit the ceramic center out of one of the spark plugs. Who brings extra spark plugs for a thrashed 140 hp mercruiser?? Not me! Still ran enough to get back to the dock, just sounded awefull. 😀
@@OwensGarage I cant even begin to tell you how many water pumps, cylenoids hoses or wiring weve replaced on the fly floating in the middle of the lake. Even replaced a starter once and a carb jet another time. Swapping a mangled Prop on a fixed drive takes the cake tho.
@@michaellott918 nice, I’ve rebuilt carbs, changed points and stuff but never swapped a prop!
Let's give it up for Madi & Jackstands girl for being brave enough to ride in Jetboats with some crazy river rapid Greenhorns, lol.
Next time they go out I bet they take the race trailer with a spare everything and the SxS to get the boats in the water 😂
I mean come on, he has the stacker, I'm sure he could fit way more toys including the boats.
I was wondering the same thing.. sxs would be perfect for launching. And extra fun.. almost fit on the tooter.?
@@GaryLX870D yeah that's my thoughts. Shove everything in the stacker and then you don't have to worry about how you bring the extras. Sucks that you can't see the awesome boats though.
some of the coolest series of videos you've done...nice job!
Design yourself a stomp grate for your intake. Essentially a hinged grate connected to a cable inside. Clogs, pump the cable a few times, back on your way with a clear intake
