The World Premier of the Rickter RC-1 PWC

I was fortunate enough to be down at Body Beach in the afternoon, and I met Rick Roy. He was there riding his new personal watercraft, the Rickter. Folks, I don't know much about this boat, and from what I've been told, this is the very first time it has been out in public and photographed, so I feel privileged to be there, and to catch it with the camera.

I don't know much about the boat, but it looks cool as hell. It reminds me a lot of the old Kawasaki X-2. The handling and speed look great.

Hopefully, someone that knows more about this boat can fill you in on the details.

Why is that guy next to Rick missing his head?

It's a person that didn't want to be posted on the internet. I could have said it was a horrible jet ski accident, but it wasn't. I just chopped her head off for her privacy.

Unfortunately I did not. But, I can tell you it hauls ***, and it was windy/choppy today. It's a very cool looking boat in person. It looks like it would be equally adept at being a stand up, and a sit down, but I didn't see him standing up on it.
