Brian does not own a BBF 460 it's mine,his Dad,Brian is helping me on a strategy plan undertaking on my project boat. Its my first jet boat, when I bought
it was in a unfavorable condition, trying to get this boat up to par is starting to put a hole in my wallet,I'm in to deep to stop now, if it were not for the rain I would still be working on the boat... Boy I sure need the brake, I hope to have it in a favorable state by May.... By the way this is my first post... Just my 2 cents

I though you guys were way ahead of the game . The interior is a litttle dry , but I'm sure you guys will takecare of and it will last a few more years . That ford just needs to be dialed in and you should be able to see the mph it has .

OK, taking my shirt off to dig into my computer to find and post the pics as requested,I will show what Brian and I have done so far, before and after pics of the wheel change also repacked all the bearings, pics of the engine with old hoses ,will post pics "when we change the hoses to braided hoses" and pic of the jet pump a pic of the gas tank I removed, I took the tank to be Hot dipped for cleaning as it had water and a lot of rust inside and out ,still waiting to have the tank finished when that tank is done I will take out the second tank for cleaning."Ricks Radiator" is doing the tanks, I also plan on replacing the gauge's steering wheel and cable, I hope to have it ready for the parker outing. And a pic of the boat
