Crazy thing happened last time I was out on the boat. I was cruising around just exploring coves and shorelines when I stumble upon a the tale-tale profile of a Yamaha jet boat sitting back in a cove. As I approach I could tell the boat had a few people in it and they waive me over. Turns out it was a new AR195 and the first one I've seen out on the water in person. Boat registration was out of state in North Carolina so I thought man that's a bit of a ways away lol. I pull up near to them and the owner asks if I had a Youtube channel and did videos on the boat as it looked familiar to him. I told him my channel, mentioned JB.net and we laughed at the small world we live in where he recognized the boat and me from the internet of all places lol. He said he had recently came back from being deployed in Korea and he's currently living in Mississippi about an hour outside of the lake we were at. I think he is a pilot or something or works on aircraft can't remember. Just crazy and what are the odds we bump into each other in that cove lol? We swapped phone numbers that day and sincethen we've texted and spoke on the phone a few times about his boat and some of the things related to maintenance. Seems like a really nice guy and I think he said he was going to sign up on here sometime soon. I think he's also planning to come visit more local lakes and maybe meet up with the rest of us Alabama jet boaters. Crazy how these Yamaha boats bring people together from all over!
