Default Trying to identify a boat

Don't know if these were them or not but these turned up with a web search.

Thanks for the info James.

I really want to find out where to get one of these. I could not tell

where
the boats docked on the lake when they were done.

They sure seemed bigger than 10hp, but they were very small and probably
light -- who knows, maybe they do get some pretty good speed even with

only
10hp...

Still looking for more ideas from anyone else...

I remember something about some small boats like this that they tried
renting at disney in fl. If I recall they were made by a big company

like
yamaha. Didn't work out or something. There are small one/two seater
finberglass boats with outboards around. I think there is a class of

then
that races. I'm not sure you can get even a small planing boat on plan

with
a 10hp motor though.

I was visiting a friend on our lake today, and noticed 3 boats in the

water.

I am trying to identify the manufacturer.

They are small power boats, maybe 8-10 feet in length. They are single
seaters, but I saw one with an adult and child beside her. Their size

was
very similar to a large Jetski. They were completely white, and had a
spoiler on the back. They each had what appeared to be an antenna of

some
kind, about a foot tall, in the back near the spoiler. The engine was
outboard, and there was a steering wheel.

Our lake limits us to 10 HP maximum. Somehow I doubt these were within

the
limits, but maybe, I don't know much about boats. That is why I

thought
I
would post here. Someone at the party said they thought they were made

by
Yamaha, but I went to the Yamaha site, and they had nothing close to

these.

Sorry I don't have any more information. I was never close enough to

the
boats to see any sort of identification. For all I know, there are a

dozen
manufacturers of these types of craft. But maybe someone in this group

can
point me in the right direction. I'm very interested in purchasing one

of
these.

TIA
