It’s hard to argue with photographic (and video) evidence; and although the pass was made during an exhibition run after this weekend’s Hydro-Turf Surf & Turf HydroDrags in Polk City, Florida came to a close, Rey Sanchez’s incredible 114 mile per hour run aboard his heavily-modified Yamaha SVHO-powered GPR – named “Boosted Demon” – is easily the coolest thing you’ll see all day.
Waiting until the temperatures dropped down to 88′ degrees, Sanchez and the rest of his Tampa, Florida-based crew (Gameover) came to Polk City to show the world what their monster conversion ski could do. And although Sanchez’s 114mph flight wasn’t counted as an official run (as mentioned), none can deny the physical evidence.
Meanwhile, on the official side of things, the standing world record of 112mph – achieved by Maikel Gonzalez on the “Blue Zone” CRT GPRXP – was reset by Gonzalez in the Unlimited Speed Alley, breaking their on record of 112 mph by .1. Understandably, to have Sanchez reset the world record would require Boosted Demon to compete in the Unlimited Speed Alley against Gonzalez, which is something we all would like to see.
To your right and below, you’ll see the documentation of Sanchez’s 114mph pass via GPS shown both via photograph and video. We found this video and photographs shared by Julio Paula, with all rights to the respective authors:

Lets face it, when Americans think of Canada our minds immediately go to two things: hockey and snow. Very few would even guess that there is a huge watercraft riding population. These guys may have a shorter riding season than those down in Florida, but when they are out riding they do it well.
There seems to be a very common misconception that all water in Canada is iced over. In this Toronto PWC promo video recorded, edited and produced by Benjamin Britton, you will see guys with just life jackets on, racing through the rivers and lakes. The sun is shining bright and the guys are enjoying themselves. The rivers are smooth but what was really cool was when they started showing the guys out in the ocean. The waves were huge but they didn’t care. They just hit the throttle and held on. This proves that no matter where you live, you can always find watercraft enthusiasts around you regardless of your riding style.
While watching the video, there are a few frames where the camera points to the dash and the speedometer reads 109. It may shock you but you need to remember that Canada uses kilometers per hour so they are really going about 67mph, which is still a pretty fast for a stock watercraft.
Benjamin Britton really did a great job with this video, and showed many attractive riding places and we believe riders from the states will be hitching up their trailers soon and taking a road trip to Canada.
It’s come to The Watercraft Journal‘s attention that Sandy Hahn, the wife and widow of Mark Hahn – for whom the annual Mark Hahn Memorial Havasu 300 race is named after – has passed after battling cancer. Hahn, who assisted and supported event coordinator and former Yamaha team racer Mike Follmer with the Memorial 300 each and every year graciously memorialized the wife of his good friend on the event’s official Facebook page.
Mike Follmer wrote: There are legions of people who are saddened upon learning of the passing of Sandy Hahn, but none more than me. Sandy was a dear and cherished personal friend and the consummate supporter, advocate and promoter for the entire PWC community while providing the flame to keep the memory of our dear friend and her husband, Mark Hahn alive. Sandy was tireless in her support of and participation in the Mark Hahn Memorial race at Lake Havasu.
Like Mark before her, Sandy has left us much too soon but is now in a better place next to her beloved Mark in Heaven. Sandy was always the first to offer support for the Mark Hahn race and worked tirelessly all year long to insure it was a fitting tribute to Mark, so when she was not in attendance this year I knew something was amiss. It wasn’t until later that I learned of her battle with cancer that prevented her from attending. That was just how selfless Sandy was, not wanting to burden anyone with her problems or detract in any way from all the causes she loved and supported.
Sandy was a great wife, mother and friend to us all and will always be remembered in our hearts and minds. Rest in peace, angel.
The Watercraft Journal: For those of our readers who might not be acquainted with you, can you please tell us a little bit about you and your 20-year career racing jet skis? What ski did you first start on? And what brought you to race in Pro-Am Ski?
Dave Davidson: Thanks Kevin for the opportunity to tell people a little bit about myself. I first rode a jet ski back in 1988 while on vacation in Ft. Meyers Beach, FL. I think it was a 440 Kawasaki and I did not do great at all. But for some reason, I was determined that I was going to look into buying something when I got back home to Burlington, Ontario. After a little research (remember we didn’t have any internet back then [laughs]), I found that Kawasaki made an X2. This looked like it would be a little easier to ride than the traditional “stand-up” ski, being that it had fixed handlebars instead of a moving pole.
So after driving to some different dealers, I bought a brand new, 1989 Kawasaki X2. The owner’s son, Mike Burr, informed me that they actually race jet skis, something that I was not aware of living in Canada, and that he was going to a race in Wasaga Beach in a few weeks. I tagged along, but only watched. By the second event, I was ready to give it a try. We didn’t have a lot of riders in the X2 class, and I don’t even remember where I finished, but it seemed that I was hooked. Kawasaki Canada was the sole promoter of racing in Canada for the first few years and set-up a cross country, National Tour series in 1990, as well as regional (Provincial) series across the country. This sport seemed to explode in popularity overnight as the 1990 season saw full lines and often qualifiers at all the events. With the help of Mike Burr, who was the major driving force behind my early racing career, I made it to all of the National and Provincial races.
That year I won the National X2 Limited & X2 Modified Championships, as well as the Provincial Series Championship. I followed that up with 1991 National and Provincial Championships. I was invited both years to go to Havasu to compete at the World Finials, but financially that was not an option for me. In 1994, I was looking for a change and switched to a 1994 Yamaha SuperJet, now that racing had opened up to all manufactures. I started in Novice Ski but after two races, I was moved to the Expert Class. I continued racing SuperJets until 2002, after winning several regional and national titles, I took a few years off of racing. Then, I came back to it in 2008 riding a stock Kawasaki SX-R. I started getting into the GP Ski Class in 2010 and had good success in Canada with both of these classes.
WCJ: You enjoyed a very successful time at the IJSBA World Finals last year. Can you tell us about your two World Championships that you took home? How did those races go?
DD: In 2014, I came really close to a title in the Masters Ski GP Class but I made a mistake on the first lap of Moto 1, and even though I thought I corrected it, scoring didn’t see it that way… In 2015, things reversed. In Masters Ski I didn’t have a great Moto 1 and thought that I had lost any hope of a podium finish. In Moto 2 I was third. This time, the scoring went in my favor and the leader was docked a lap for missing the merge lane buoys. As it played out, later that night I found out that I had won my first World Title. Not the most glamorous way of winning, or how I would have liked to win, but it was a win.
In Veteran Ski GP, which was the following day, I was second in Moto 1. The wind picked up huge for Moto 2 in the afternoon and I was a little worried. Moto 2 went great for me and I lead from start to finish, winning my second World Title. This was so much more rewarding as I got to cross the finish line knowing that I had won. That was a great feeling for sure… I know they weren’t exactly premier classes, but it was a great accomplishment for me personally all the same.
WCJ: We also know you dedicate a lot of your time to teaching/mentoring young kids looking to enter into the sport as well – even helping out with the Jr. Stars program last year. How was that?
DD: At 49 years old, I am well past my prime in this sport. When I started, we didn’t have anyone to teach us or learn from. There were no Junior classes available. I was 22 years old when I started racing. Today, many of the young riders have already quit racing by that age. I really enjoy working with the younger riders to pass on what I have learned and been through over the past 27 years.
Locally, I work with the riders during practice to push them a little as I know how much work it takes before you get to the starting line if you want to have success. When I was asked to mentor in the Jr. Stars program in Havasu, I was truly honored for the opportunity. These kids are great to work with at that level, and very skilled and talented. I hope that I can continue to work with the Jr. Stars program in Havasu for the remaining years that I still attend. Chris Haggest works very hard on this program and I am happy to help out where I can.
WCJ: You also assist Amy Green with the Ski Clinic. Can you tell us about how you got involved with that?
DD: I always wanted to offer this to Amy, but Josh Block asked if he could do it and I thought that was great as he has been through the Junior program himself, and is much closer in age to these kids than me. I look around and realize I’m older than most of their parents. I didn’t want the kids to think “who is this creepy old guy taking to us.” Josh asked me if I could lend a hand as it is tough when you have 10 or so juniors to keep track of. Again, passing on what I have learned over the years is so rewarding. I am just happy that there are kids there that want to listen and learn.
WCJ: Can you tell us about how you came to be a team rider for Jet X Powersports? How’s it being on the team?
DD: Ryan and Adrienne Dalli are some of the nicest, most dedicated people that I have met. I don’t think that there is a harder working guy than Ryan, as the amount of hours he puts in in a day are unbelievable. Ryan primarily worked with the runabout machines, as that is where most of his expertise lies. When he approached me and asked if I would like to be part of the team, I immediately said yes. I do most of my own stuff on my skis, and Ryan knew that, but he has helped out with parts and fuel costs over the past couple of years. All of the people associated with the Jet X Team are great. The support I get from them is invaluable as this is tough to do on you own, at this level.
WCJ: What are your plans for 2016? Will we see you again at Lake Havasu? What can we expect from Dave Davidson?
DD: It has been a tough start to the year for me. We had a really cold, crummy Spring and I got almost no riding in before heading to Florida to race first in the P1 AquaX and the Pro Watercross series. That was in May. Then the first round of our Canadian series is not until July 23rd. It makes it tough to train with such a big gap between races. I do plan on going to Havasu again, even though I was on the fence for a while. I put a lot pressure on myself to succeed in this sport.
After the success I had in Havasu last year, I know that I will not likely be able to duplicate that. That is something that I have been battling with. I come to realize that winning a World Title once is an amazing accomplishment for anyone. So many things have to go right for just two motos in order to win an overall title. I have seen many pros lose world titles on the last buoy. I tell the young riders that I work with not being discouraged if you don’t win. There can only be one winner of every race. Keep trying and give it your best every time. Never quit as long as you are having fun and enjoy what you are doing. I guess I have to live by my own words of advice.
WCJ: Is there anyone you’d like to thank?
DD: The first person that I have to thank is my wife, Lori. She was with me the first time I rode a jet ski and has been with me and supported me ever since. I could have never accomplished what I have over the years without her hard work in keeping me going all these years. Other sponsors that I would like to thank are Dedicated Plastic Tanks that help me with a lot of financial backing. Steel Tech’s Mark and Andrew Bezan for the custom steel work in my trailer and beach carts, but mostly for being a great holder and crew at the races for the last four years. Jeff Caswell who also helps both during practice and at the World Finals. Optimum Racing for some great custom wetsuits. Jet Trim for keeping me on my skis. Bullett for building great hulls and helping me make them go fast. Of course all of the Jet X Powersports crew as they help out everywhere and continue to keep this sport fun for me.
16-year-old Becca Stuck isn’t like most other North Carolina teens her age. While most look forward to spending their summer vacation sleeping in and hanging out with their friends, Becca has a much more ambitious dream. That dream is to wakeboard on one waterway in all 50 states, including Hawaii and Alaska, in just 21 days!
Becca is newer to the sport of wakeboarding having only been on a board for around three years. She says at first it was an excuse for her to get out of the house and get out on the lake but shortly after she fell in love with everything about it. “When you get up, it’s like you are floating on top of water. It’s hard to explain how it feels,” she shares.
This is where “Wakeboard America 2016” was born. Becca has already mapped her entire trip out, which will begin on July 9th at Lake Norman, North Carolina and close to a wrap on July 30th. To make sure she meets her time deadline, she says she has to make it to approximately three states per day. Her parents Robert and Barbara Stuck are on board 100% and can’t wait to join her on her adventure.
“I’m going to try to do 30 to 45 minutes in each lake. I just want to stand up and maybe try to do a few tricks. I’m still a beginner but that’s okay. I’m so ready to be able to do this. For the adventure, it’s going to be a lot of work and driving but I think it will be worth it,” she said.
To make this trip even better, Becca applied to the Guinness Book of World Records with the hopes of setting a new record and shortly after, her application was accepted and she’s just working through the details on documenting this for Guinness. “A lot of people have done things like this in six months or a year, but they do it with wakeboard companies or a group,” Becca said. “We haven’t found any record of anyone doing it like this.”
Her wakeboarding trip across the U.S will also raise awareness for Wake The World, a fantastic nonprofit organization of boat owners who provide water sport opportunities to abandoned, abused and neglected children as well as the handicapped and wounded warriors. “I have been going to the lake ever since I can remember. I can’t imagine never being able to go to the lake,” Becca said. “This allows Wakeboard America 2016 to bring awareness to Wake The World to help bring these opportunities to those who are not as fortunate as I have been.”
She has also secured a sponsor, Hyperlite Wakeboard Company, which donated wakeboard equipment for her trip. While that is very appreciated by the family, they are also hoping to get more sponsors along the way to support meals, hotels, fuel, food, airfare to Alaska and Hawaii and other expenses associated with the trip. “We are looking for a title sponsor or an associate sponsor. We’ve gotten a lot of great feedback,” her father Robert said. “We still have time left. This is a great opportunity for somebody to get involved. There would be a lot of benefits for someone who could come in as a title sponsor.”

This year’s annual Sarasota Powerboat Grand Prix Festival was slatted for this July 4th weekend and it was the second year that it was going host the P1 Aqua X series. The festival is a week-long event leading up to the weekend’s races and supports the Suncoast Charities for Children. The racers started to arrive on Friday and were present for a meet and greet for the children as well as part of the block party where they showcased their jet skis for the general public who attended.
The city of Sarasota was pumped up for some racing over the weekend. For this round, both the professional racers and the amateur racers competed. The professionals were coming back to racing after a two month hiatus from their last race in Daytona Beach, Florida and the amateurs were wrapping up their season as this was their final round for the year.
On Saturday, the first day of racing, all of the racers were marshaled out to the course for an early start. The amateurs were led to the beach and had to beach their craft while the professionals conducted their race. The action kicked off with Chris MacClugage taking the lead. Aero Aswar was right behind him, followed by Eric Francis, Mike Klippenstein and Brian Baldwin. A lot was riding on this series for Eric Francis as he was trying to maintain his number one world ranking and had some tough competition to battle with.
The conditions were a little rough out on the course as Anya Colley and Kirk Britto came off their skis and cooled off in the Gulf of Mexico’s warm waters. The first race ended with Aero Aswar taking the win followed by Mike Klippenstein and Eric Francis. Chris MacClugage had engine trouble that dogged him during the first moto and couldn’t get it fixed in time for the second race. The professionals were then led to the beach where they were beached while the amateurs began their race.
In the Amateur 300 class, Enrique Chia was battling against Domenico Barilla and Chris Saxon. They finished the race in that order. In the 250 class, Tommy Olswang looked strong as he has all season and took the win. The 200 class had a surprise as Jennifer Nolan, who rode like a bat out of hell, took the win for the first race of the weekend.
After a long break, the racers returned to the waters and followed the same race format as in the morning. In the Professional class, Aero Aswar again took the win followed by Eric Francis and Brian Baldwin rounding out the Top Three. The amateurs had Chris Saxon return to his winning ways in the 300 class followed by Domenico Barilla and Hector Toledo rounding out the podium.
In the 250 class, Tommy Olswang continued his strong riding in the second race. Kevin Wassum, who had taken a break from racing, returned to the waters and gave a strong showing as if he had never been gone. Jennifer Nolan again rode hard and came away with the first place position again and looked as though she was determined to get the top podium spot for the weekend.
Sunday kicked off with the same format as the previous day with the professionals starting off. Chris MacClugage was trying to make up for his misfortune the day before and rode really hard with Aero Aswar chasing him down. At one point, Macc had an eight second lead over Aswar. Then MacClugage came off his ski and Aswar came within a second of over taking him before he started up again. The lead was down to a second before MacClugage extended it to eight seconds again. The final race for the professionals ended with MacClugage in first followed by Aswar and Craig Warner.
The amateurs then got their final race of the weekend started. Anthony Radetic took the holeshot but was overtaken by Enrique Chia. The final order for the 300 class ended with Enrique Chia in first followed by Chris Saxon and Jeff Dowell. The 250 class had Tommy Olswang take the win and in the 200 class Jennifer Nolan took the win for the sweep.
All had a great weekend of racing. The amateurs concluded their race season with some hard fought battles and are already waiting for the 2017 season to get here. The professionals are looking for ward to their next series that happens in August in the windy city of Chicago.

Loyalty is what makes or breaks a professional racer, and only a very few know how to represent their sponsors with the professionalism necessary to elevate this sport to the next level. One such racer has been Floridian Eric Lagopoulos, whose been the public face for several of his supporting sponsors over the years.
Yet, many will find Lagopoulos sporting a very different look for 2016; after riding for Sea-Doo BRP for many years, Eric Lagopoulos has decided to make a surprising move: “After much deliberation, I have made the decision to switch from the Sea-Doo RXP-X 300 to the Yamaha FX SVHO.”
Stated Lagopoulos, “It was a very difficult decision for me as I have been a brand loyal racer for such a long time. The Sea-Doo GTR brought me two championship wins in 2014 and 2015 in the AquaX series and it is a very good watercraft. However, after AquaX announced that it would be promoting the Pro Series at the 300 class level, I needed to consider the options.”
Lagopoulos went on to say. “In order to be competitive in this class and for me to continue to bring home the championships for my sponsors, I felt that the Yamaha FX SVHO would be a better ride for me at this point.”
Supporting Lagopolous’ decision, Yamaha has shown its SVHO-powered FX platform to be a strong contender, continually placing at the top of the podium and out-pacing the 300-series RXT-X and P-X Sea-Doos at each round of the 2016 AquaX tour, with the current highest-ranking Sea-Doo rider, Erminio Iantosca in 7th place.
What a difference a year makes. The Watercraft Journal, the industry’s most popular personal watercraft magazine, is celebrating an unprecedented growth of over 30-percent in its annual readership this month. Yes, you’re reading that right: from June 2015 to June 2016, the single-most read PWC magazine has increased its already industry-leading monthly readership by nearly a third. That’s literally tens of thousands more dyed-in-the-wool personal watercraft enthusiasts coming to read articles published nowhere else but here. They soaked in our content, interacted with our social media, and spent hundreds of hours reading articles written specifically to introduce them to our advertisers.
So what does that really mean? For those companies actively advertising with The Watercraft Journal, their advertisements are seeing a constant barrage of viewership, their sponsored articles are drawing the eyes of interested and/or curious enthusiasts looking to maximize the enjoyment from their PWC, in whatever manner they wish. And unlike other blogs, sites and aggregators, our readers actually purchase the products reviewed here. In fact, we’ve got nearly a dozen personally-written emails and messages from satisfied readers vowing the same. And no, we don’t want to sell your products, nor do we ask for a cut of the sale.

A Consistent Rate of Growth
You might notice the two charts above and wonder why exactly we’re publishing two performance reports – one from this past June and the other from a year earlier, June, 2015. We do so for some pretty obvious reasons: First, to show how much we’ve grown in readership in a year’s time, using the month of June as a snapshot. Next, we want to illustrate that our growth is a steady, consistent rise, not a month filled with sporadic peaks and valleys. Rather, we’re growing in readership like the rising tide, elevating every level. The Watercraft Journal is welcoming more and more readers, and at an accelerated, exponential rate. No other magazine is growing as quickly as The Watercraft Journal and that’s just the beginning.

A Consistent Schedule of Publishing
The internet is a funny thing. When you prove yourself as steady as clockwork, people tend to return more often and regularly. As we publish industry news, product reviews, ride reports and more – more regularly than anywhere else – we’ve learned that PWC enthusiasts have come to depend on new and interesting content every single day. And that means we’ve got a responsibility to deliver. Unlike anybody else, The Watercraft Journal maintains a strict publishing schedule of developing and publishing new and informative content about its advertisers and their products, as well as the industry and sport as a whole.
News articles published in May: 22

Consistently Bringing WCJ Before The Masses
Many companies chose to use their social media accounts (be them personal or for business) as their sole outlet to accessing new and interested customers. Plain and simple, this is lunacy. Why? Because the people following said accounts already know who you are, and unless they are feverish return customers, you’re not getting the influx of fresh, new customers that a company needs to thrive. That’s why you need The Watercraft Journal. By offering our content freely and easily – whether it’s via a desktop, a laptop or a portable device, anyone can read our content. And with our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and weekly newsletters, we bring our content directly to them. And that’s a huge part of our success!

It’s Better Together
So again, consider how small (ie. intimate) this industry truly is. And then imagine your company have ready and daily access to tens of thousands of PWC enthusiasts you might not have known even existed. That’s the difference between advertising with The Watercraft Journal, and any/everybody else. Again, we’re a resource. And to be one, you need to act like one. And now more than ever is the time to get your company and products on The Watercraft Journal. To inquire more about advertising with The Watercraft Journal, please email [email protected]

Waiting until the temperatures dropped down to 88′ degrees, Sanchez and the rest of his Tampa, Florida-based crew (Gameover) came to Polk City to show the world what their monster conversion ski could do. And although Sanchez’s 114mph flight wasn’t counted as an official run (as mentioned), none can deny the physical evidence.
