      Waverunners on the Mekong?

      Laos May 12, 2013 at 1:08 PM

      This may sound crazy - however, my friend and I live in the US where we both own Yamaha waverunners. We have been in Laos and Thailand recently and we are now interested in buying two new waverunners, in Thailand/Laos, and traveling down the Mekong River from the Golden Triangle to Mukdahon. (flexible on locations actually)

      We would want to purchase the waverunners - take the trip - and then sell them back as used. We would also be looking to hire a Yamaha mechanic to try and follow along our trip with a truck with a double waverunner trailer in case we need to have repairs - or need to pull the boats out of the water. Do you know of anyone that has done this? Would it be allowed?

      Not even sure where to look to find out about this.

      Thanks in advance.

      I'm planning a 14 - 18 days backpack trip next year and this is what it looks like:

      1. arrived at Vientiane
      2. Vientiane to Vang Vieng (VIP bus about 5 hours)
      3. Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang (minivan about 7 hours)
      4. Luang Prabang to Muang Ngoi Neua (boat around 7hours or should I go to Muang Ngoi via land transport before taking the water transport to Muang Ngoi Neua?
      5. Muang Ngoi Neua to Muang Khua (boat around 4 hours)
      6. Muang Khua to Dien Bien Phu (overnight bus?)
      7. Dien Bien Phu to Sapa (morning border bus at around 8 hours)
      8. Sapa to Hanoi (night train around 8 hours)
      9. Sapa to Hanoi (sleeper bus, travel time unsure)
      10. Hanoi and back

      Can any one who has done this before especially the transportation part are they viable? Any suggestion if not?
      Thanks in advance.
