Back to the dark side (jet boat)
« 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.

I haven't logged onto the website here as opposed to the FB page in well over a year.  And look who I find, my old Arcade nemisis, BKplesh.   O0
Very nice looking boat bk.   Congrats on the upgrade.  Good luck on making it as fast as the egg beaters moved ya.

The site isn’t what it Used to be. The new jet is coming together nicely..new floor and now making new seat bases.....good project for me and my boy....well  since I can’t sell my big block..might just rebuild it for the boat
