Hats off to Minnesota Water Sports, Ultimate Boat Wraps and Polk Audio for putting together a great boat for an even better cause. I really like the Camo bimini, there is some great attention to detail in the wrap! and 2, 12" subs on the kickplate, 26 speakers, and 9 amps... pretty sweet.

To anyone here who has served in the Military, your dedication and sacrafices are much appreciated to allow us to live free in the greatest country on earth. Thank you....

Will it be forsale at an auction or what are the plans for the boat?

Would be cool to have some pro riders step up and offer to go out and do a photo shoot on the water with it for the day...

I wonder if the wounded warriors would appreciate a ride on the boat more than the $$ donated after the sale. I live next to a Navy base and I feel guilty towing my boat by because I know how little the enlisted people make (I spent 4 years enlisted in the air force -- trust me, $1k a month salary is not much!), especially considering the sacrifices they make for us. Maybe we should all spend a weekend a year taking military folks out on our boats and teaching them how to board or surf. No strings attached (not even gas money!).

That is a great idea. I would be down for that in a second. I spent 4 years enlisted in the Navy and would gladly like to pay back as much as I can. Anyone have an idea how to do this? I am serious, I just have no idea where to start on a project like this.

How do you even fit 26 speakers in the thing!! Pretty awesome and for such a great cause!!!!! Thanks for sharing.

Saberworks/Sky Ski,

If you're close to a base I would contact their Public Affairs Office and see if they might be able to help you organize something.

(hockeysk8er222)

Jamie,
I can't see where you fit 26 either, but look at the two subs under the dash! Great boat for a great cause, proud to be a Vikings fan!

I thought this would be a great idea as well and tried reaching out to the Wounded Warrior Project last winter, but it has been very tough. Basically, they said I would have to wait for them to set up a campaign in our area and then they would contact me back. No luck so far, so I just helped out with the local fundraiser which had a concert put on by Gary Sinise's band and then did a parade of homes.

I still would be interested in donating time with the boat for warriors so if you find out a way please let us know. Thanks.

I believe them when they say it, but someone has to show me how 26 speakers plus woofers fits in that!
