Lemons craft taken to the next level.

after the lemons craft V.1 was fabricated in 2008 it served a good solid yr till it met its maker on I-55 when an old dry rotted crank strap popped and it bounced off the trailer at 60mph. Being fiberglass and a flat bottom it just slid to the shoulder not damaging too much (or killing any one) but never the less she was OLD and already had previous holes in it (now made worst). So after a summer of hard slave labor we bought a hull and with a little hard work, sweat, and a big help from Kicker Audio we built V.2. A 16 ft Aluminum Flat with the same 40hp engine. New stearing (old one damaged in the accident), New board racks ebay $40, tow ball welded in place for rope mount $20, Kicker tower speakers and 6.5s in the front Free, and of coarse a little ol fat sack to keep the front down (hand me down). The best investment by far! Runs on 6 gallons all day, great inside out wake, and an even better wake 2 wake (baller size blind 180-w2w learned behind this bute). Part of Louisiana Tech Wake in Ruston LA, me and my buddy brenan thompson put our wakeskating engineering to the max for this project. BUILT TO SHRED, tell me what you think. Thanks

Thanks for everyones comments. I appreciate the Love. We have put our passion in creating this boat to be the most convenient, reliable, and cost efficient watercraft for wakeskating! Sorry for delayed posts I am also the Wakeboard Team President for Louisiana Tech University.
Answers:
bmosing: It is a roll cage/light bar from my buddy's old Chevy s10. Do you have your Private Pilots license? Me and 3 of my friends on the team have theirs! How is the cable looking i would like to talk more about the set up yall have there, can I get your number? no homo.lol email me: reeseboy52 at yahoo.com i want to pitch it to my university, Thanks.

key and paulmc: the foam you see came off the gator board impala bc we wanted to grip tape the board so when we ripped the foam off it was like 100 degrees outside and the boat was stinging hot so I put it on the surface and it re-melted the glue to the front of the boat. Making a nice little seat to get off the hot metal. (Wakeskating ingenuity at its finest)

PrimeO: lemons we are hosting with ULM a collegiate regional tourney up here oct 22 weekend. It would be so sick if you did a demo and learn these folks a little something something about waterdancing. You know when I first went ride with you and you said when I was 22 I would be in same position as you. I would never have believed you, but now look what we got going on. Making some positive improvements for the sport! I want everyone to have the opportunity I had. Holla at me brosef. I heard the lemon twins (josh and blake) have been blowing up the scene!

zip: totally factory was thinking about getting it wrapped???

A question to all. what if this boat was mass produced would it sell on a business stand point?

check out this things wake! (towards the end footage) and could that be considered a back side bigger spin?
