I just uploaded about 10 pics to the Jetboats section of the image center. Now I need to figure out how to post pics.
All comments welcome.

That's it, alright. I still don't know how to link the pics, I guess I'll go study it a bit.

Okay, I think I know how to post pics.
Here's the pump end of the boat. Yes, there's more silicone than necessary, but I don't want it to sink the first time out.

Let's see if I can do this in multiples.

Above is a pic of the front of the engine. I think it turned out pretty clean.

Above is the carb/intake plumbing. Also pretty tidy.

Here's the pump brace, jetaway, and oil filter location.

Here you can see a simple bracket I made for the PD hydraulic pump. I didn't like the plastic "U" bracket that comes with the kit.

Last pic - This is my partner in crime (and grime). Now when someone says that it looks like a 4-year old rigged my boat, I can say, "Well, actually, he's only 3 years old".

I'm dying for some feedback - even if it's "Totally amatuer hillbilly lag-bolt and baling wire rigging"

It's too late to cash in on the rapid rise of Silicone stock prices. The bubble is about to burst. For a while, every time I went to Lowe's, the manager would see me coming and call General Electric to order more clear silicone. Now that the transom is sealed up, stores in my area are overstocked with GE silicone products. If you didn't buy before I started, you missed out. It was like the dot com craze of the 90's.
My latest stock tip - buy stock now in POR-15 and Rust-Oleum now, before I get started on the trailer.
The boat is a black base with lime green graphics. Black enough to burn your skin in the direct sun. This boat has had a black gelcoat base ever since it was new. Jake re-did all the black and added the lime green. Jake did some very nice work, but it needs more to make it look finished.
Right now, I'm just scrambling to try and get it on the water. There will be plenty of time to make it pretty during the winter.

So that's Jake's boat eh?
Looks nice man. Kinda sad to see that Jake did sell it but I don't blame your for picking up that project.
