So what we have
- 1 good hull
- 1 freshly rebuilt rotten engine , job was done in 1983  ok ok
- 1 berkeley JCE rebuilt also  but never used

I was really into ford v8 jet boat power thing until the crank main bearing came on scene yelling he's tired even dead
how come a side bearing is worn when all the rest is in    condittion ??
the Crank is dead only on the center side of the journal meaning pressure had to be apply big time
too bad at that time they seem to blew the pump bearing or so & ruined the engine by loss of oil pressure
They rebuilt the pump & realise a crank noise
well I am 

Time to go Mr 460 you are so fat maaaaaaan !!!
For such a simple euro dude a badass 460 is not a current problem

 
Let's go

Hi all
I am Arnaud from Paris
My garden is loaded with a bad weapon Carlson CVX 20 jet [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
this is the only way to enjoy legaly a fat v8 in a turbine over here in france
No motor show lousy dragsters are lucky enough to ride our oceans or our nice rivers 
I ride basically in center of Paris , it is a magical touristic tour on the Seine causing 8 millions passengers a year , world's biggest port river passenger trafic sort of
& a bit of freedom , it's full of cops hype & serious no speed allowed  12M/h you are taped & oftenly arrested, beetwen huge Bateau mouches in lane with no brake
Well we do have our Lake havasu by force , barely 3 miles of happyness in Suresnes where high speed is recommended for watersports ski wake fun & no matters
All kinds of boats are required but a jet boat's better, only option is a kinda street legal Glastron Carlson with its inboard engine lookalike & I love it
the thing is in progress , main target is to have good power,less weight, no noise , no gassomisation & no technical worry [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
