Have a spare jetski that I am going to strip anything usable out of, but looking for creative ideas to do with the hull. (I think the crank went, was going to repair it, but going to use it for parts for my other one, will find out tomorrow maybe)

I was thinking of advertising it as a motorless boat for duck hunters to use (they could store their gear in the hull), spray it camo and paddle it.. or attach a small outboard trolling motor to her?

The hull itself is in really good shape, the seat is weather cracked and the plastics are a bit rough but still too good to send to the dump to be crushed..

Looking for ideas that I could offer for uses if I can get someone to grab it.

Thanks!

You could pull it behind a boat like a hotdog float.
You could put a motor back in it and ride it

Headstone for a Pro Jet-skier?
Really big kitty litter box.
Make it the bottom half of a bar or table?
Mount it on a spring in the yard. We used to have a Pelican like that. I remember riding it all day as a wee little boy.

Mount it on a pedestal, cover it in cow dung, attach fake money to it and then call it "American Excess No More". Then sell it to an art collector or museum for $50,000.

The tow behind could be a good idea for day trips.. keep a cooler and supplies in the hull

My kids love playing on them when they are just sitting on the ground lol

Take the quad in the background and use the jetski as a body kit.

On a jet ski forum the I'm on a members avatar showes the front part busting out of the side of his shed. It's complete with a helmet and gloves on the handlebars poking through. I'll have to see if I can save the pic and upload it here.

EDIT: http://www.greenhulk.net/forums/member.php?u=493 it's crazy a's profile. Take a look at his avatar. I tried saving it but with it being so small and it saved big, it distorted it.

^This.^ But more elaborate, make an amphibious quad-ski!

Freak people at the lake out when you beach it, then DRIVE AWAY!
