G'Day Fella's, As shown else where on this forum, I'm shopping around on which Mini Jet Boat to build (from a Kit)? I'm just about to place an order for one of the following Kits (3.3 Meter / 3300mm long) but not sure which brand yet; Maybe this brand <a href="http://www.wattscraft.com" target="_blank">www.wattscraft.com</a> But probably this (for Face Bookers) with the rear step https://www.facebook.com/liquidviolationboats/?epa=SEARCH_BOX Here is a You Tube video of the same size LVB boat I'm looking at (3300mm long), I'm still considering which engine and jet pump to use...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtE2ESpIAp8 Merry Christmas you mob and a BIG Thank You for all your Help, Advice, Knowledge, Experience and Humor and Best Wishes to you all, for 2019!

That last video looks like a lot of fun.. My question is, in country that beautiful, what's the hurry??? |

Finally took the plunge, Eh. Nice little toy! Maybe not so hot for fishing. Jon-boats or inflatables are much superior as f jet-boat fishing platforms. I can see this as a fun little craft though. Lining the centre keel with UHMW is a good idea. |

Just watched the second video and had flashbacks to some very close calls in my crotch-rocket days. Some closer than close. 400hp - YIKES |

G'Day Fella's, Yes Ripp, I agree but when you live there, the Kiwi's seem to get a bit Ho Hum, with their scenery. Luckily, this NZ scenery (and Huntin and Fishin to go with it), is only a 3 hour international flight away. Still not exchanged $ Daryl but with the Christmas break now over, I hope to get this done and get things underway shortly. My Doctors told me, No more Motor Cycles, decades ago ........... they made no mention of Jet Boats! Have a Bonza 2019 Folks. Homer |
