http://www.alumaski.biz I have been looking into these a fair bit now considering in the future for hobby/ backpack hunts. I have been born and raised sledding in the steep backcountry and atving/ side-x-side hunts even riverboat hunts...BUT this looks like a toy every guy needs! (trying to explain that too the wife!!!) whats your thoughts??? I know fuel consumption/storage/weight would be a bit of an issue, and if your luckey enough to harvest game on your weekend out, but suit it up with storage racks, jerry cans, light bar and hit the rivers?? :grin: :grin: :grin:~! and could potentially get you into some beautiful country! has anyone had an opportunity to try one of these units out?

That would be awesome for some of the smaller rivers for fishing. Bit pricy though, think a jet boat would be of more practicality.

Didn't see the price.

If it's more than 10K it's not worth it. Unless it's a 4stroke

Needs a bigger windshield!!

Awesome though! I've always thought an aluminum sea-doo would be sweet.

If only I had the money I would have many toys of the likes of this unit..

25 US plus 8 more in options and it doesnt even have a stomp grate. Better hunting boats to be had for that price but it would be fun.

You can get a basic jetboat for less. Its neat though.

Yes you can get a cheaper boat for less, same as you can get a cheaper atv less then a sidexside can-am maverick turbo or the new high lifter rzr 1000 sell stock for $26,000 and every man and his dog has one, same as snowmobiles, you can get a tundra cheaper then a turbo Yamaha nitro, Us guys really have spending problems lol! I bet these alumaskies get more popular with time and cost comes down!!! To bad our dollar sucks! And you can buy a new fire fish snapper 14.5 for basically the same price!!!

It looks like fun but I see ending up at your destination soaking wet.
