Okay Okay... Heres the deal... My fiberglass patch worked!!!Heres what happened the gate valve on the intake of my pump for my cooling system jammed and it was open all the way so after i took off the trailer and got under load the headers started spewing water and filled the bilge pretty quick so i hauled ass into shore and went home and free'd the valve... then... i drove all the way back with my girl to help and she drove while i adjusted the valve... so fixed that problem... and my motor ran like a fucking champ!!! i realized i have two rivets that failed on my rub bar... so i shoved a fucking rag in it and ran that bitch for a while ;D Soo im gonna replace the rivets tommorow and silicone them a little just to make sure there sealed and then testing again this weekend 8) IM super stoked that the thing floats and the motor runs!!! Ive only driven a jet boat 2 times and its sketchy how low it is in the water but its rad! you just cant slow down quick becuase it will flood it! after i scared myself a couple times i started to get a hang of it and my woman digs it!!!

Little by little bro you'll get there. Wrench, test, wrench, test until she's 90%. A jetboat will never be 100. Good luck keep us posted.

I have a dana for sale. Needs a pump and motor. Intake in it is for a berk and is machined for a shoe/ride plate (included)....has full interior, gauges, cables, etc. Full stringer hull. The trailer could use some work or just swap it over to the one you got.

im really trying to find something with a pump... just because mine is so weak i want something with some nuts. The dana is rad but i think that the gel is gonna get way too hot and thats gonna be a bitch too clean. That Challenger is rad though and for 400 is that a solid deal? i could just use my trailer and through my seats and motor in there or i can have that hull and find a pump and start piecing it together slowly i just dont have the room :banghead: :mad:




I went out on the lake again today and it was rad!!! Unlike last time there were actually some other jet boat guys out there instead of old dudes in there fishing dingys. I went through all the rough water pretty slow and side ways to absorb the hard hits(which i need to work on to make a smoother ride... if you have advice please share)  but i did hit hard a couple of times and it scared the shit out of me!... but the repair held up solid. Its just id rather get a new hull so im not worrying about cracking it again and a nicer pump so i can go faster >:D My bayjet is such a POS!!! But it still cruises! at like 3500 rpm im running about 35-40mph which isnt bad but id like something more sturder and a stronger hull. IM still looking for a deal i just need to make some room. I seem to be burning a little oil(i dont know if thats usual) but i might get a spare block to start building to learn and to give you guys a reason to come onto scjb and help me haha ;D I adjusted those basset headers better too.. there misting a little at idle and there not leaking at all at cruising speed - hauling ass speed 8) Im running around 150 as water temp which seems decent? Other than that its tits! haul ass and be loud through the canyons and blast the stereo on the sand bar and hangout all day... Fucking PARADISE.

Thanks for all the help fellas especially DREW And OMAR!

I also built another runner horizontally under the keel to help stabilize the boat better and elimenate trailer bounce under the advice from Drew and it came out nice and helped a lot!!!

Here's a pic after I just cleaned her today after  the lake  8)

Although great advice from beer jet, do you really wanna be that guy that sells a boat with a patch job that even you are afraid of coming apart. Not saying it will but you never know and you don't know what the buyer may do if it happens to him right after he buys it. One of the reasons when I was selling my boat I sent the link to my build thread so the interested party could see what was done to the bottom of my boat before buying.

Either way enjoy it while it still floats

No I'm not gonna sell this hull... I'm going to sell the trailer and inform the buyer that the hull is junk but they need to either fix it way better or scrap the POS... If I can find just another hull and pump I'm gonna use my trailer and take this hull to the dump. I'm trying to hold out for that saguaro but I need to save up more. And man up and learn how to pull the motor set a pump and wire that bitch up.

I have a complete Berk JC-A for sale. Ran it all last summer on my 20' mini day 50-55 mph all day. $400 could use a freshening but it runs.
