hello everyone I'm Cody my parents have been inmates for years. I just moved to Kingman Arizona for work and would love to get into the boating world. I've been doing off road race car fabrication and ironworking for the last 8 years I'm currently 27. I included some photos of projects I've worked on.

welcome aboard there sparky. I guess "don't fucking die" is a daily affirmation for you? lol From flying thru the desert to hangin off steel beams way the fuk up in the sky welding you are truely "living on the edge". keep up the good work, your building a foundation of knowledge and experiences that will provide for a very fun and interesting life. well done.

Welcome Cody. Sorry that I was not in town when your dad reached out a couple of weeks ago. We are in Kingman every now and then for business needs. Reach out the next time that you are heading to Havasu. It would be great to meet up once again. Plus our sone Rykley has bought a home in Havasu and it would be great to get out on the water when you are able. 👍

I’ve kinda got a soft spot for jet boats and old V-drives don’t think I want a full blown project but but would like to find something I can motor swap down the road😈 main concern right now is finding a place to rent with a big enough garage to finish my jeep project

I know of a real nice 18' Rayson Craft v-drive for sale less engine, with trailer. The boats currently being used as a SE circle boat. Their 16yr. old son is driving it as a rookie this year. He's a veteran A hydro racer and is stepping up. The boat works well but is too heavy to be competitive in SE w/ the SBC'S limited build specs for the class. Let me know if your interested I can put you in touch with them. They're a real nice family with Dad and the 3 boys racing.
