Fast boats (14)
Grandsiozzie: Does anybody know if the 150 - 225 yamahas from the 80s/90s (2stroke) all were V6?
Is the Phantom as good a speed boat as I think it is or is Gilbert/Hydrolift better?
Further more how important
are the two hydraulic Trim tabs at tha rear for the ride smoothness?
I'll pass on this one thanks...Is the Phantom as good a speed boat as I think it is or is Gilbert/Hydrolift better?

Right. Was this nice Phantom 18 with a relatively small but good Yamaha 70 for only 2300 Pound Sterling here that tickled my bunny,
but now it's gone so maybe next year.
Crazy thing is it can take up to 225HP as in ths video
Phantom 18 Yamaha 225 PS 225 hp outboard Außenborder speedboat
By the way I found out it's V6 two stroke, 2.6 litre.
Fantastic engine.

Former First Lady Jacqueline Onassis LOVED speedboats, and could often be seen on lakes and bays in Massachusetts piloting OR water- skiing behind one...Because I'm a water baby I've been on a few. Kinda fun....little scary....must like the wind and water splashing and spraying!!Is the Phantom as good a speed boat as I think it is or is Gilbert/Hydrolift better?

There are a couple of things I just can't do--ice skating is one. I tried water-skiing, it was fun, but I wasn't able to do it enough to become good at it. Tried waterski rohaan? I don't stand on one yet but can do one on each leg.
