[QUOTE=OLEGATOR;3026555]part of the tommy bartlett water ski show. got to drive one when they did a show in orlando, they did not allow me to jump. mk 25 on speedliner hull with approx 3/4" bottom. at the time, i thought i had died and gone to heaven. my boss, tommy hagood, tommy bartlett and mr kiekhaeer were buds.
In 1965 I was sent to Wis Dells to help rig the Bartlett boats for the upcoming season. I had the chance to put on over the ramp but chickened out - we needed two jump boats for the show and if I crashed one I am sure my two month old Mercury career woud have been over -
Those might have been the ones I rigged. Not many people know it but those motors had cast steel swivel brackets -Quote:
