there is just something about working on small engines that just makes me so happy.
For real tho.
clean and balance my zx9 carbs then
That profile pic smokes rocks
It harkens back to HS auto shop.
I know what you are saying.
When I was 13 we went to Disney in Florida and the highlight of the whole park was renting the mini speedboats that looked exactly like that one. That was 42 years ago and I remember it like it was yesterday.
Funny how things can take you back to a precise moment in time.
@@fastasfox true that, or a certain smell can have the same effect good and bad.. make you remember the little details of the day it happened or certain smells might make you think of your spouse man or woman it's all crazy how u remember things when certain things line right up
Crazy carts i remember then. so fun
When I was there around 15 years ago they still had those!
Good memories
It brings back a lot of memories for me. That looks almost just like my first boat 40 years ago. Same red and white color too. Mine was a 10 foot GW Invader. I had a little Thunderbolt 50 Merc on it. I had a lot of fun with that little boat. Good luck with her.
I had a 10ft GW Invader too Scott. Had a 45 Chrysler short shaft on it. Early 80's Sure brings back memories!
Had identical boat back in the 80s, had a 60 Merc on it, what a blast.
@@pyroboobysmith359
Running a 60 on that tiny thing had to be hair raising! I’d like to find a hull like that for my ‘95 Evinrude 48 SPL. That motor has outlived three hulls already. 😂
@@johnhiggs325, these hulls are a little on the heavy side, so 60 was just right for jumping out of the hole and getting on plane quick, then very stable and predictable at speed.
There's no such thing as luck. Everything has a cause. Also how God's existence is proven.They've taken the proofs for the existence of God out of modern DEeducation but the proofs for the existence of God are a staple in any undergraduate philosophy tract. They're called St Thomas's 5 proofs. You can't get to Catholicism via logic alone but the sheer existence of God and that He must, for example, be One, IS proven. Here's one. You see that things have a cause. If you don't assent to this you're simply a liar. IF you don't have a First Cause of all Himself Uncaused you have an infinite regress of causes of effects and never getting to the First Cause you never get in reverse logic to what you see today by neccessary result of this infinite regress. The infinity (i.e. NEVER ending of causes creates an insurmountable gap because if its inherent infinity insurmountable gap because if its inherent infinity insurmountable to suffice for the existence of anything you see that exists and has a cause of its existence. There MUST therefore by neccesity exist a FIRST Cause that is Himself Uncaused Who is God. You're welcome
Most fun for least amount of money! Now go finish cleaning the fence.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Just rip it down and start over

What I love is how only 30mph can still feel fast on the water
104 on a jet ski is terrifying if nothing else
About the fastest I've been on the water is 70-ish and that was more than enough for me.
30mph feels fast over anything when you're face is about 2 feet above it
Now try 50 on a tritoon
@@haroldgladysvanveldhuizen9110 50 isnt that much honestly my friend has an allison hes got to 92.1
I know this is two years later, but your clip popped up. I must say, you have a excellent narration style. Kept us all up to date on what you were doing and how you were doing it. I give this an A++++. Bravo.
Very cool boat! Well done! The engine sounds beautiful after you fixed it!
Neat! Used to water ski behind a 13.5 ft Boston Whaler with
a 40 hp engine. It used to top out at about 30mph. Your boat has less hp, but better aqua dynamics, so the top speed is probably about the same as the Whaler.
Neat boat. Back in the late 70's I wanted one of these bad.
@Lteo Hrnt Me too. I'm 60 now in '74 I was 14 and we lived on the Ohio river water skiing . Little aluminum V haul and fiberglass tri haul runabouts . Life was wonderful .
In the late 70's my neighbors, at the cottage, had one of these. I wanted one so bad. Awesome little boat.
I had a 10 foot Veck speed boat with a 33 hp Johnson with Dolefins on it. It had the center front sear and steering wheel, and had a rear seat that was a 4 foot wife 2x6 with a cushion on it. We had a speed prop on it and had more fun with that that little boat than any boat
I've ever owned.
Brings back memories!! In the 80's I had an Aqua Dart, looked very similar. It had a 25hp Johnson. What a blast!! Thanks for posting!!
I've got a 25 Johnson on a small 10ft Newbourne Colt Sport boat, great fun, brilliant engine!
Looks like there's a good bit of adjustment that can be done to the trim of the engine. With just the driver in it you should easily get at least 35-40mph
Yea, you can raise the trim when up to speed. Reduces drag I believe
Trim will absolutely help it.
@Memer Dreamer your experience must have missed the part of the video where he hits 28mph on GPS.
@Memer Dreamer that boat is for sure lighter than most zodiaks tho.....
@Memer Dreamer the rubber on the zodiaks makes them heavier than this boat ...... smaller zodiaks are generally not lighter than 80-90 pounds this tiny fiberglass boat weighs no more than that guaranteed..... It's comparable tho it's not like it's much lighter but fiberglass boats that small weigh nothing most jetski's weigh more than that tiny boat 😂
That boat is a GW Invader, I owned one several years ago it was a real hoot with an old 55 Hp Merc behind it. Be careful with the high speed turns, no keel, flat bottom, it can kind of get away from you. I did one really scary unintentional 180 once.
I wonder if you could put some sponsons on it like a jetski?
it actually looks like an Exhilarator 101b, Gw invaders dont have the extra hump in the middle. its a copy of the GW
Yeah GW Invater. Very cool!
Not a GW Invader but very similar, I had a GW Invader many years ago. The boat was absolutely insanely fast with the 70 hp old school six cylinder Mercury that I had on it.
Small block Chevy would fit
this seems so satisfying lol having a boat and can be brought to the lake at any point of time for a relax ride... awsome
Or piston slap
Wow, What fun little run-around. Goes quick enough and no stress at the ramp. I like it
I'm really impressed by how you work with those carbs so effortlessly, obviously evidence of lots of experience. The last time i tried working on a carb it was on a 1980 MGB. Tried rebuilding it myself, only to end up with little parts and screws leftover at the end that i had no idea where they belonged. Needless to say, my MG didn't run any better....well, not at all actually. I now own an older Evinrude outboard and am trying to get smart on this engine. Your videos help a lot.
::‑X:-(:-):-)
It's awesome how he just goes in on the carbs. No hesitation. I wish I had that level of experience
Two stroke carbs are about as basic as you can get. There is an emulsifier tube and a main jet. The only tricky bit might be replacing the float spring. The pin that holds it is ridiculously tiny. Take lots of pictures during disassembly to refer back to and get a shop manual for your exact model engine. Be methodical and patient. Two strokes are finicky engines that need constant love and affection! 😝
I personally own a pair of ‘93 Yamaha 6 cylinder 200’s and a ‘95 Evinrude 48SPL. All three puke blue smoke and kick around like a mad horse, but they’re a blast to run, and man do they run. I’ve owned them since they were brand new. It would take a crazy offer to get me to part with any of them.
learned my lesson with carbs a while ago, just buy a new one lol
Oh hell, late '70s and '80s carbs are about as bad as they can get. Had you just went Weber SD's, you may have loved the little buggers.
boatguy: washing boat.
ADHD: There is a fence.
Should I take more Adderall or am I taking too much Adderall?
lol forreal. HOW DO I STOP THIS MADNESS!!! i really dont want to take adderall
Haven’t taken my adderall for two weeks moms pissed that I’m not doing chores lol
A whole life of doing everything around the thing im ment to be doing.
*shakes head*
Yes I can relate!
I had the same boat which was most likely from the same mold with full windshield, built by Princecraft in Canada.It had a 1972 Johnson 25hp and I grew up learning to waterski behind it. I also learned a lot about propellers and various pitch and blade configurations. It ran very well and planed out around 25 mph. top speed was around 32mph. Mine was a beige colour with brown seats
So awesome that you know how to do all this work yourself with rebuilding.. the amount of money you’re saving yourself is incredible coming from a fellow boat owner. Great work!! 🤙🤙
It's a 2 stroke, not much to it as you don't have to deal with valves!
Amount of money hes "saving" you kiddin me, you can tell just by lookin at his freakin backyard he has no damn money so he has too, has no choice.
@@leeknievel748 🤣🤣
Who wouldn't love a little boat like that? Very small, doesn't require huge amounts of cash to operate, needs very little maintenance and so simple to work on. This is great for hours of fun on a salt river or freshwater lake or pond. You could operate that 30 HP outboard all day for very little money and can pull it on the road with literally ANYTHING! What's not to like?
the look of satisfaction on your face cleaning that fence, made the lifejackets being left in the boat ok with me.
I used to have a similar small boat called a Merlin from the 60's. It had a deep-v hull and when it was on song (with all 18hp) it had a really small footprint on the water and handled amazingly well on a smooth surface. 9'6'' I think it was. Mine also had a carb issue, which in the end I think was the fuel lines rotting out and causing blockages in the carb jets.
I know nothing about engines or boats but if I start I know I will come to your videos. Love the explanations. Makes it simple for a layman
these boats were ahead of their time definitely want to see these make a comeback for sure
Looks like a tiny little fun boat to spend the day with.
i totally want one....i found a couple of early 70's Jame Bond Glastron GT's for sale in Florida, rebuilt for $4K
Let me tell you that in the world I live, this boat would be just for few that have money and admire real good pleasures in life, just because it is so tiny and completely worthy of being purchased. Don't say the day with - Just for an experience it must be a week !!!
“Boat ramp is kinda hectic right now, a lotta people don’t know what they’re doing” -proceeds to bottom out trailer
I love boat ramp humor.
That’s like every time I’ve ever went to boat ramp; always someone who doesn’t know wtf they’re doing lol
It takes a lot of practice for ramp perfection. Been doing it for nearly 45 years now. Sometimes ya just wanna volunteer to launch and recover for them, but then they will never succeed at the ramp. Just be patient, we were all there at one time or another.
William Strength too true man.
William Strength i literally say this all the time. It’s hard to get mad at beginners when you look back on some of your mistakes. Have to learn somehow
So satisfied to watch this motor work on a little but beautiful old 3 cylinder engine. nice lil motor and wow the fix really made a huge difference! Gratz on the successful fix. nice little boat/ rocket
I had the same boat with a50 merc in the middle 70's, mine was a 1969, a gift from my parents as a teenager to enjoy when we were at the marina on the weekends. Lots of good memories. made by GW Invader in Indiana
We had a couple of them at our cottage in Canada, one with a 50merc and the other a salvaged 35 Chrysler (they should be ashamed) a 3 wheeler, lawn darts, minibike, bike ramps on the end of the dock. surprised any of us survived childhood. Good times.
The
I wanted one of these as a kid! They were the grandparents to the modern Jet Ski!
Back in the day they were sold as GW Invaders. Still as cool today, as 40 years ago.
I do remember these as a kid, wanted one then, wouldn't mind one now. I'm sure you will enjoy it thoroughly👍🏼❗️
That's correct, JetSki came out and killed this quickly. 😑
I would rather have something like this over a jetski.
I will be honest I want a catermain mini-boat.
Imagine this with the transom reinforced and a 50hp Merc on the back. Step dad had one when I was a kid. Scary fast boat.
More like 50 hp Yamaha
Southern Squirrle Boyz merc all the way and also merc is the best and fasted moter on the market rn
@@wyattvoss7188 Yamaha is more reliable
How fast?
Can't imagine! Sounds Dangerous!
You are not a poor man, you are in good company, the best treasure one can ask for. Cheers from Argentina.
Mine is only slightly bigger, 13 feet, with a 40hp Mercury. I bought it cheap as a project (it had been lying in the weeds in the corner of a yard for at least a couple of years.) It came with a 2-stroke 40hp. I changed the engine for the 4 stroke, had the gel coat done, fitted a new screen, new seats & carpet, fixed the lights, and it’s a beaut now.
That steering wheel is off of a craftsman riding lawn mower
I thought it looked familiar
It say it In the title poor
Probably just some random Chinese steering wheel
That is hilarious!
The complete steering system is off a riding mower because it's cable operated! Pretty smart actually
7:00Head down soldier! There is a sniper.
I was the glare saw*
iumopepisdn hes kidding xD
r/woooosh
😂😂😂😂
That was a good one
imagine your just chilling on your 35 foot luxury sailboat, and see this, 8 foot, red speedboat pass you at 40-50 miles per hour
I remember riding one of these at a theme park in gatlinburg and another in Ontario as a kid. Till this day I still remember how awesome it was. Sweet little boat man!
It looks like the Disney speed boats you used to be able to rent, (in the 70s, and 80s) by the hour at their resorts.
My marina neighbor has one of these for sale. He called it a Mickey Mouse boat.
They still had them in 2003 when I went not sure now.
I rented them a few years back
The "Water Mouse" was fun, I have always wanted one with a bigger engine
Exactly. That’s what I have been looking for. Trying to find this exact thing for my kids to learn on.
The random way he cleaned a spot on his fence and didn't do a whole section really triggers my OCD... LOL!
And dragging that pressure washer with a kink in the house.
I don’t think that has nothing to do with ocd just the way men are raised but I’m sure he was just exited to get his hands on the project:)
count me in, can't stand half ass work.
Same. Made me rather uneasy.
@@karlswanson4968 That's what I expect from a Swanson! #RonSwansonPyramidOfGreatness
I had the exact same boat but it only had a 25HP on it… even so it was a ton of fun in the pre-jet ski’s days! Jersey shore memories…. Stay safe… be happy!
I like the way you explained what you were doing as you did it, I'm not a boat guy at all but found this really enjoyable to watch, thanks!
Hey Skipper, everything short of poor. Your rich in experiences & memories most of us wish we had. Absolutely awesome 👌
Would you be willing to sell that boat? I would really be interested you can call or text me @734-497-8422 I live in Lambertville, Mich.
At one point I thought he was selling a pressure washer
He was!
I think he was more enthusiastic about that thing than the boat!
Me too
He definitely is selling a pressure washer
Thats a nice pressure washer though tbh compared to my dads loud gas one
The boat and tube would be plenty of fun for me. That setup is awesome!! 👏🏼
Congrats American homeboy. A real man is who try fix all his own stuff. Good job buddy
Looked like a very fun day on the water, after getting her all lined out an running smooth. Great little video. 😁👍👍
Hahahah “ boat ramps kinda hectic right now, skrrrrk skrrrrrrrrrk”
I don't even bother on the weekends. Too many googans.
@@travelingwithrick Watched a guy try and drop his 20ft bass boat (sorry not familiar with bass boat brands). Trailer was not in the water. Can't say I've ever seen someone scrape up the bottom of their brand new boat that bad before, ever. There's was probably 10 of us that watched (a few even offered to help) but this guy was determined to destroy his boat.
@@Xteesy Amateurs
ookies lol Some of the funniest times are at the boat ramp/launch. I seen some guy get socked up the my first time I bought a Seadoo and launched it, took it to Silverwood Lake. Guy was sitting in his truck was waiting like 15 minutes for someone to finishing launching their boat. Guy that was launching was really frustrated. So the guy waiting in his truck popped off and called the other guy an amateur after he was finished. Next thing you know the guy sitting in his truck gets cold-cocked like 3-4 times up side the head and face. The guy that got socked up took it like a man and didn't even call the cops. Never forgot that one. Watch out for nutty's at the boat launch/ramp. Lol
Welcome to lake seminole park it's like this all the time
@@Jokerdynasty People throwing nutty's and getting socked upside the head? Or amateurs launching their boats? At lake Seminole park.
Man I grew up playing in a boat just like that !!! Best thing ever !!! Loved every minute of it !!!
I got to take some time to thank UA-cam for recommending this channel. Love it!
OMG! I remember one of those in the 70's! They went so fast with a 20hp it was scary! I loved that boat.
Your channel makes me want to move to FL and buy a boat! Great content man!
Sunshine state I the bet place to have a boat!
Bruh i live in florida just saying ramps close pretty early cause of the pandemic
Well definitely DON'T watch Kelly Young's vids of her adventures in FL. You'll be moving tomorrow leaving all your possessions behind
I live in Florida there is a lot of fun things to do
@@kiwivlogz3003 staffing issues?
Water settles to the bottom. You need to check for water at the bottom of the fuel tank, not thru the feed line.
Love the little boat. Driven something called a watercat about 40 years ago, been trying to find a good used one.
Fun video, keep up the good work. Liked and Subscribed ! ! ! ! ! !
Your channel just popped up. That is a bad ass little speed boat. Love it. Thank you for sharing.
I would love to have a boat like that again my mom got me one when I was younger now that my mom passed away just about a month ago it brings me back to when I had mine
Go with a 16 foot flat bottom. It would pass this boat.
Put a 50HP Mercury on that transom. Same weight. You could do a prop stand around that whole lake. Boat has potential.
I was thinking 40 would be more than plenty! lol
i agree... a 50hp Mercury would be just perfect lol
Thanks for this video, I was thinking about purchasing a wave runner, but they are over price and only last 10 years. Then I saw this video and it is perfect for what I want to use it for.
Super good fun. Grats on the motor, great call to give it attention. Deep candy apple metallic, new gloss white gel coat on bottom, and led marker lights get my vote. Great find.
I can't believe that you didn't service the engine first, you always do before taking them out, nice little boat .....👍🏴🇬🇧
My thought too. Great way to need a tow home.
@iwantabeetle ....I don't ride a horse and it's a BMW .....😂👍
Lazy work ethic is what that is
iwantabeetle why you so mad lmfao
And wonder why they blow up
Steering rudder looks like it has a mile of play
Yeah, did look a little loose to me.
awesome video aspecully at thee end with the drone video work. I had one of these little speed boat but mine had a big inbourd
Didn't know that boats with outboards had rudders? Nope they dont... never had never will. Are you talking about the steering wheel? A rudder is located under the boat.....
@@joshuavanderschaaf5145 it must be lingo from England or something.
I use to work at a marina on a state park lake in the 80’s and we rented them out. They will fly, even with a little 10hp outboard. They were super fun.
dude you missed a spot!
A couple of suggestions:
-Don’t pull the machine around by the pressure hose or the electric cord,
- tie a zip tie around the trigger handle to keep water flowing through
the pump, it will last longer
I was thinking the same thing about the cord, though a lot has changed in 6 years, I am sure they know that now LOL
pump looks like it weights nothing.
@@shark8996 its a loud mf for sure… besides the weight, the bens and abuse will give u 1/2 amounts of use…
This is the best boat video about cleaning a fence I've ever seen
I like how you just work outside and enjoy it most people have big shops and you do stuff fast than others probably
That's because those engines are indestructible pretty much😂
Working on boats is the way to go!
I hope you are in California. I have a 1987 Force 35 hp that needs repair...
Shade tree mechanics get it done.
Scarce

Friend, when you hold something a few inches in front of the camera and shake it around, folks can't see it.
Absolutely killer little boat. What a great find that was for you!
Nice little boat. Very nice little Yamaha motor. I noticed when you first started it, the water hose was very low pressure, didn't see any water coming out of the piss hole, but hey, it still works. Great editing and production. Thanks
Love the video, just started working on boats recently in a shop and this is all good stuff to be able to watch I appreciate all of your hard work!
That's like driving a high-powered lawn mower, or a go-kart..lol
It's a golf cart on steroids!
It’s like a Mini Cooper!
Look up "jet dinghy" they will blow your mind. Im actually making one
MG of the water.
We had one around 1978...we skiet behind it on the lago di garda in Italy Europe ..damn brings back memory ;-)
I didn't know where the boat was made, but back in the 1960's, and 1970s there's was a boat Manufacturer, in Warren Michigan on 9 mile and schoenherr Rd. I lived across the road from them. What a great find. 👍
This is brilliant! You can have so much fun with something so simple, I need to get one of these
This is like a floating golf cart on steroids! I love it!
Great little boat, on the cheap!!! Can't beat that kind of fun for the buck! Nice job bro!👍
That looks like so much fun!! Thanks for sharing
When I was a kid down in Corpus Christi, TX they rented boats just like this and you could run them around the bay down at the T-Heads. It was a lot of fun and watching you with this one sure brought back some good memories of my youth. Have fun with it; I'd like to find one just like it , just for chits and giggles. Good job. I went to buy one of those electric pressure washers but they are out of stock on Amazon...I need a small one just like that. Anyway, enjoyed it, thanks.
I hear they are crap. Go with a gas pressure washer on warranty
I remember renting boats a t the T-Heads, getting fresh Shrimp, and the tour boats guides that would take you around all the boats on the docks lying about their famous owners...lol.
When you get that thing out of the water start tilting that motor up. My 89 Merc 175 Black Max has never let me down
@jefferey johnson I had an 88 'black max' 150. Nothing wrong with it. Ever! Ran great and fast on my bass boat. Are you racist or something?
Seeing this inspired me to get one! Fixing up a 12’ 1980 Sea Raider w/ Mercury 25
Tilt the motor up more especially when you get up on step. Cool boat I’ve liked these mini speedboats for a while
I noticed that too.
I was also going to comment this if You didnt :)
By trimming the motor more out the boat will get higher in the water and speed will increase.
My cousin bought one of those (pretty sure it's the same/looks dang near the same). It's an awesome little boat, it scoots along quite nicely haha.
The thing is bad ass.. Doesn't look like there is alot of room in it but the thing moves and pulls a tube well...👍👍👍👍
Nice Video.. Back in the day,60 's a friend had a little boat, I think it was called a Volts boat W/ 18 hp. Johnson. It could hold 4 people very uncomfortably but was petty fast and fun for one.
I had one of these but it was a tad smaller, from Disney World. The Mercury WaterMouse. We traveled all the way to Muscatine, Iowa and picked up a Water Mouse! It had a 15hp engine and could go up to 24mph! Used this boat throughout my childhood and hoping it's making some other kid happy.
Sweet little motor, nice sized boat, seems to go well and looks like a lot of fun! 👍😎
They called em sea flea when iwas a kid
If you know anything about finances and money management, this is actually a rich mans boat.
🤣
@don coles Ya know I have heard it said the 2 best days in the life of a boat owner are the day you buy it and the day you sell it.
@@jcota2003 I can vouch for that saying, having experience with a '91 ChrisCraft 25 ft.
@Donny D Bankruptcy on a trailer
Brian Burress sounds like big inboard problems my parents have had a Chapparral 162XL with a Johnson VRO 90 for like 20 year which gets stored outside in like 3 feet of snow in the winter. That boat which they bought for like $5000 in 2004 has probably only had like $1500 in maintenance in the last 15 years.
great job on the carb work sounded nice
Dude, your drone pilot is a fricking wizard. Good enough that he makes you forget that its a drone shot and just pay attention to what is being shot, Impressive.
Jakwuw
That motor mount had me anxious the whole time you were out there. LOL
Adventures with Corey that’s what I was thinking looks like the transom was gonna fAll off🤣🤣🤣
A friend had one like this in the 80's, but it it had inboard engine with jet ski like propulsion. Badass
one of these? ua-cam.com/video/YdFoAM8XWqQ/v-deo.html
Yall won on the lil boat , a great deal ,economical and Tons of fun , good content, family friendly, keep up the good work, and enjoy your rare found Jewel 🙈🙉🙊💖👍👍👍
Great video, love the music near the end and very knowledgeable thanks keep them coming
That “custom” motor mount didn’t look janky at all...
The poor mans long shaft conversion adaptor...
I was waiting for it to set the motor free...
Been there, done that.. I added height to the transom and worked perfect. This one looks a little sketchy. But hey! It works!
Hahah hey but it didn't break off pulling two people on that raft!
I was thinking the same thing
just try and remember the motor is pushing not pulling...most will hang on by a shoestring... not saying it won't fall off while being trailered around though...lol
Cheers from Canada, we rented these when we were at Osoyoos lake back in the seventies, ton of fun.
I would call this the Red Roaster and I would have it out on the lake every week. Love it!
What i love about this boat is you can tow it with anything and run it pretty much anywhere.
Name of boat please
That's awesome! I would totally rock that boat....great video.
Put trim on it and that little boat would be a blast on the lake.
The drone shots are the best! Great job on your little boat - a smart buy. I hope your next job is to upgrade the motor mount.
Love little boats. I have two 8 ft aqualarks one with a 30 Yamaha short shaft two stroke and one with a new four stroke 25 Yamaha
Both have trim tabs and fins on the motor. I love the boats more than my 22 ft Regal
Loved watching your boat
Looked fun af. Great video! Cheers
I had a friend back in the 80s or early 90s? that had one of these, we took it down to Bullhead Arizona on the river, drove it at night, no lights that was fun😆
And as I was watching I was thinking the high pressure jets were clogged. Because, once upon a time, my high pressure jets were clogged in my 115 Merc. The spark plug gaps weren't smashed shut thought. Even a yr later it's good to see you got it running.
Loved it, we use to have little boats like this you could rent in Lake George NY, wish they still had them, there a ball, thanks.
