Title: Back to the dark side (jet boat)
Post by: bkplesh on August 05, 2018, 11:25:05 AM: Well after many years of not having a jet boat. I picked one up yesterday. Project boat. Not something I think I’m going to keep forever but it will make my decision easier to either convert my twin outboard into a jet or find two motors for it. Funny if you know me.
