That has to be in Australia. You have to be crazy to need a roll bar in a boat....

The passenger is the navigation. Their job is to point left or right before every corner.

Reminds me of that old saying -- something about how you want to end your life - with a whimper? - or do you want to hit the grave.. skidding sideways and saying "wow! What a ride!"

AWESOME FUN, Todd is right it is the navigators job to give directions by hand signal. over here in Aus there are 2 classes 400cub, they run a Hamilton Jet and a unlimited class that run Scott Jets. The course in the video is quite open, they usually run them with the water level lower, which tightens the course. In New Zealand they run them on the braided rivers.

The way that thing handles it must have a pair of "hyrdoformed" rails installed.
