For those of you who feel that fiberglass repair is just too difficult, may we submit this all-mahogany, hand-crafted Honda Aquatrax F12X Turbo? Touted as being one-of-a-kind (and we’re pretty sure that the seller is right on that one), this custom ski is clearly a case of somebody having too much time on their hands. Unfortunately, the build isn’t complete, as the seller states that the build is 90-percent finished.
Amazingly enough, there’s only 18 hours of use logged on the drivetrain, so the ski itself was rather fresh before the transplant, considering. The seller had to back out of the project due to health concerns, but is happy to regale the new buyer with the long story explaining the build as well as provide a CD-ROM full of digital imagery documenting the process. Again, there’s no listed price, but offers are being considered.
Spotted in the Madison, Wisconsin Craigslist board, below is the original post and a link to the listing is here:
“Mahogany Jet Ski. One of a kind. With All Honda Aquatrax drivetrain 165 hp Turbo. 90% finished. Under 18 hours on the drive train. Lots invested. Interesting story on it’s conception and build. New Mahogany Top Deck going on this summer. Selling due to health..DVD slide show of the build. Lots of time and money invested. Want to make an offer? I’ll listen. Interested parties only.”
That’s just crazy. Some people do have a lot of time on their hands. Nice workmanship. I hope it gets a good sale price.
