Hey Guys, newbie here to the sight and jets! Picked up my first jet today for 1500 bucks runs great but have'nt got it onto the water yet it's a project but now that I found this site can't wait to pick all of your brains lots of knowledge floating around in here let me know what you think
80 nordic w/hardin 454 and dominator pump no setback or droop though
needs some interior work and planning on a rear bench setup and full engine cover

Welcome and feel free to ask away.
Nordic makes a good hull and it sounds like you have a good combination there (were being over run with Ford guys lately) ;D

Welcome and what a Smokin Deal, especially with a quality custom hull. There's quite a few of your kind here, NORDIES that is.

I had that exact same Nordic for 5 years--20'/BBC/Dominator--and really loves it because it had room for the family and "stuff", yet performed like a smaller, lighter jet boat. I traded it to boost last summer, and traded it again a couple of months ago. There is another one in Las Vegas. Here ia a thread with a few pics of my Nordic. http://www.socaljetboats.com/index.php?topic=4116.0 (http://www.socaljetboats.com/index.php?topic=4116.0)
I'm sure you'll have fun with yours.

Welcome sandman, nice score on your Nordic, have fun with your project. I have a 76 nordie and love it. And pay no attention to the few Ford bashers out there ;D There must be a reason the chebbies are gettin overrun by the Fords !!!! ;D ;D

Hey saw your pics of the old boat and you had the rear bench setup and engine cover that im looking for!! what do you think is it difficult to do the woodwork myself then take it in for upholstery? or just have it done? kinda working on a budget here.
