Sometimes they let me stand around while it's being crushed (run over with a huge dozer of some sort) and sometimes they ask me to drive away, I'll see if I can take a video of it being crushed and post it up.
I've parted out and had crushed over 30 jet boats.
I have a 26' 4" (measure with my feet) SKV jet boat. I don't think I've seen another like it. Basicaly I want to know if the dozer should crush it after it's stipped or should I sell it less motor because it's worth saving due to rareity...

If your on a budget, Centerline has overstock's, discontinued, and blem wheels on their website. I haven't been on that site for quite some time but some of them were really inexpensive. I paid around $150 (shipped) for four brand new discontinued Centerline aluminum wheels for a truck. The...
I've been buying and parting out boats like that for several years. I would pay $350 - $400 for that boat, expecting to double my money (min.) when I part it out including all associated costs.
I got a cheap bimini (about $110 shipped) off of eBay. It came with plastic hardware. I've had the boat up to 46 mph but I wouldn't expect that cheap bimini to handle much more speed than that. Now after it's aged a year, I'm not sure if it would handle 46 mph. The straps that came with the...
With used four strokes costing 3 to 4 times what the same sized used two stroke costs, two strokes using somewhere around 3 times more fuel than a four stroke, and then you've got places thinking of banning two strokes. It's like comparing a VW bug to a Corvette.
