Daytona 19 - OB to Jet
« on: April 18, 2014, 06:05:38 PM »
I have been looking for a project 19 Daytona jet but came across an ob hull that has been completely redone as well as the trailer.  The hull is bare and needs a complete re-rig.

Pros and cons of putting it back together as a jet?  Not worth the hassle, just keep looking for a jet project instead?

Thanks.

It's the candidate for a jet conversion.
They are pretty fast ob's though.

I agree with beer, those can haul ass as an OB.  Where do you plan on using it?  If you're sold on having a jet and your ready for the task to convert this, I would give Greg @ GS Marine a call and talk to him. http://www.gsmarine.us/  He was involved in the original designs of the Daytona's when he worked at Eliminator.  He would know how much bottom work it would take to make it work as a jet.  The bottom is the only difference I believe, or at least the main difference.  Definitely keep us posted, sounds like a cool project.
