Well our pontoon in the picture( the big white one) is finally finished and I can start on my Day Cruiser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
another
-
thats a big jet boat
-
actually the Outboards are tired and old and we are building a pod to mount beneath the boat in between the pontoons and install a jet as the powerplant for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How super cool will that be? I have a drake pump with a diverter on it. II should be able to shoot a roost from hellll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
all the big river tour boats here are dual jets
-
never seen one out here but it seemed like a good idea
-
shit dude thats a boat? in the first pic it looks like part of the dock...wow, me likey ;D

Yep! I wanted fast and loud she wanted BIG and stable. Well when i get the Big block under her with open headers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She will be BIG ,loud,stable and will shoot a HUGE tail!!!!!! She runs 27mph with two 85hp outboards> What you think she will run with a BBC? she only drafts like 6" of water.

I know this sounds sac-religious but why dont you strap 2 merc cruiser 300 to it, wonder how fast it would be with 600hp on it?

Cost is the reason we are considering movig away from outboards. I can build a solid bbc cheap and I have the jet pump. I bet I coudl make it move pretty good though.... now stopping it? Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just throw out a sea anchor. You know the water parachute type. ;D

My buddy had a 54' Holiday Mansion house boat and it had a 4.3L V6 with a three stage Hamilton jetdrive, that was the smoothest quietest houseboat I had ever been on, 3200 RPM was about 15MPH, but liked fuel, cruised perfect at 2200 RPM and the Hamiltons back up awsome.
If memory serves he sold that boat 2 years ago for $177,000 with a slip at Holiday Harbor on Lake Shasta :banghead:

We arent doing anything special with the motor. Just planning on using a stock big block with nothing extra. I do want some cheap loud OTs

Have lots of pictures but i am trying to pick the ones that are ok for the site. This is one of the only County funded nudist areas that I am aware of in the entire US! It is a county park in Austin Texas. When the park rangers come through the park and wanna ask you a question or something you just walk up and talk to them and they have to carry on a conversation with you even though you are stark ass !
-
That's what Photoshop pasties are for ;D
Or if you want to use a picture of a radiator hose thats understandable >:D
-
Wasnt sure exactly what was acceptable on this forum! I can show some pretty cool ones if I can improvise! What are his exact limitations
-
haha that looks cool as hell... love the boat. that thing must be a blast
-
We have a good time with it. Dying to finish my daycruiser now.
