	I've done it with my Formula 3. It was not a fun experience. For starters, the skis kicked water up towards the seat. I was SOAKED from the waste down...you can clearly note that in the picture. It also did not care for the crossing of the water too well. I made sure it hit it plenty fast. I still almost lost it once though...had the back end of the sled under the water as I hit the 'shore'. If you decide to try it, hit it fast the first few times to get the feel, and the best of luck to you. I know I will not water cross my F3 again unless I must. 2006 Arctic Cat SnoPro 440/700 EFI 1998 Arctic Cat ZR 600 EFI Custom 1996 Ski-Doo FormulaIII 600 A mountain lion roaming the prairie found a bull, killed it and ate the entire bull. With a heavy belly, unable to walk, the lion laid in the tall grass moaning and roaring. Soon a hunter, attracted by the roaring, shot and killed the lion. Moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut! Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit
