          Very Funny, but the Ski Nautique is back the front on the boat, which means the image has been mirror reversed.

          Anyway, we don't drive on the wrong side of the road, you guys do.

          If you add up the populations of everyone who drives on the UK side of the road and subtract everyone who drives on the wrong (US) side of the road, the result is approx the population of New Zealand (people and sheep) in our favour.

          So there !! :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:

                  I could never get my head around why you folks in the US drive cars with the wheel on the left but make boats with the wheel on the right :???:
                  Suits us in the UK and AUS as we don't have to think too hard when we jump out the car into the boat.

                                  There is an historical reason why boats have there steering on the right - but I forgot what it was. I think it has to do with the tiller of a sail boat...?

                                      What's really cool about that boat is that you have to throw it into reverse to go foward!

                                          How strange would it be to use the throttle with your left hand (for righties).

                                              For me, a little at first, but I think I would have more difficulty shifting a car with my left. How does RedRobin feel about throttling with his right, when he uses his left to shift on a car?

                                                  yeah i'd agree redelf, i dont think the throttle on the boat would be as tough to get used to as shifting a manual with the left...
