    The criminal illegal alien trash who murdered an innocent American woman yesterday in Grapevine, Texas. This illegal alien Venezuelan struck the young American woman (who was on a kayak) with a jet ski and fled the scene. Here she is being taken in to hiding by other Venezuelans. They should all be charged but she should face the death penalty no questions asked. Eye for an eye. I have zero sympathy for these scumbag aliens.

    Kraken, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, will pay employees four months' worth of wages to leave if they disagree with its values, according to The New York Times. In a Wednesday report detailing internal cultural turmoil at the company, the publication cited interviews with Kraken employees who recounted "hurtful" comments around preferred pronouns and demeaning statements toward women, among other incendiary remarks, made by CEO Jesse Powell. The employees also said Powell held a companywide meeting on June 1 in which he unveiled the program, called "Jet Ski," designed to incentivize employees to leave if they don't believe...

    Whipple told WJCL an animal about 4 feet in diameter that was “gray on top, white on the bottom with this weird face,” came out “like a rocket” and knocked Dixon off the jet ski. McDaniel jumped into the water after the accident to help keep Dixon from drowning. They flagged down a pontoon boat, which then took Dixon to land. Dixon suffered broken ribs, a concussion and injuries to his lungs, back and neck, according to his brother. He was spent two days in Savannah Memorial Hospital’s ICU and was released. Authorities credit the quick response by Whipple and...

    Experienced PWC owners ^ | 11/9/14 | blueflag
    We are looking for advice regarding Yamaha 2-stroke engine for their (older) line of personal watercraft- say 2002 - 2007; pre-four-stroke motors. We want to buy two used ones (the full watercraft, not just the motors), and don't know how to gauge the hours of use on the Hobb's meter. How many hours is too many? What if the cost of a rebuild? How do you know it needs a rebuild? IF this was about chainsaw motors, I could answer my own questions. Looking for FReepers with experience with Yamaha PWC.

    (CBS) BOSTON New England Patriots defensive end Marquise Hill is missing in Louisiana after a jet skiing accident. His agent, Albert Elias, told CBS and a woman were on a jet ski in Lake Pontchartrain during the day Sunday when they hit a wave and fell off. Elias said Hill, 24, saved the woman's life by helping her float to a nearby pylon, but Hill drifted in another direction. Elias said Hill can swim, but the woman could not, so he tried helping her, before the water pulled him away. "As he's drifting away from her he was giving her...

    It looks like something from a James Bond film. Shaped exactly like a dolphin, this boat is the latest toy for millionaire adrenaline junkies. The Seabreacher can jump 10 feet in the air and even perform acrobatic tricks. Created by two water sport fanatics, New Zealander Rob Innes, 33, and Californian Dan Piazza, the Seabreacher is made of out of fibre glass, stainless steel and aluminium and uses the discarded canopies of US fighter jets. The two-seater craft can submerge 2 ft underwater for around 20 seconds at a time creating the dolphin-like dive effect. ********************************** The price for a...
