If there is anyone interested in jetboating here, you should check out the 2 videos in the media link on this web site. Boat is powered by a 454ci small block, running 105 mph.

The pumps used are 90% Berkley. Eagle make some very nice CNC bowls and a custom nozzle. You can see a shot of the nozzle on the main page of the Eagle racing site. They are quite long, no diverters and have about a 2.75" opening. This type of boating is way to much fun for any kind of adrenilne junky. More people should get involved. It's very popular in the Northwest, Alberta, New Zealand and for rich Mexicans. Engine are expensive because they are built to run many miles at wide open throttle. The World Marathons are 500+- miles spread out over 5 days generaly.

Hey all,
There is another new video posted on the www.eagleracing.ca (http://www.eagleracing.ca) website. (same thing as www.harbercrafteagle.com/eagleracing/) (http://www.harbercrafteagle.com/eagleracing/)) Also, you guys with aol... try downloading the movie to your computer and then playing it through "windows media player" as it is an .mpg file.
Also if you have any questions about anything, the EagleRacing forum there is also monitored by Rob Chrunyk. The owner of Eagle Racing. And he would definetely be able to help a lot of you out if you have any questions about anything on jet boats.

Re: Eagle Racing, Rob has about 25 years racing experience and is very knowledgable about anything that squirts water. Good to see them here.

In the first 2 clips that thing sure is riding pretty high! It's moving with out a doubt!
The 3rd clip looks pretty sweet.
Thanks for sharing.

That boat is actually travelling 110 mph in all 3 of those movies, just in the first one the camera was closer to the boat and by following the boat as it went by created a false illusion of speed.

The boat is Naturally aspriated correct. Is it the pump and motor. Or are you just seeing that much speed out of your hulls? That is absoultly amazing, and looks like so much fun.
I have a pretty fast hull, so if it is the pump can I send it to you guys and have you work on it?

I've been saying it all along. These hulls work very good. They are light but very strong and tested in the most ugly conditions. Joel, Rob's boat is running with the 454ci small block isn't it? You don't need big block if the boats are working good.

Jungle Boy, that is an Eagle tunnel hull. I thought I read in some thread on here you thought the tunnel was just a "go fast" boat. Not so great for recreation type boating. If I have one boat for skiing, tubing, and hauling people (open bow), can I have an Eagle tunnel for just going fast for myself.
I want, I want, I want. I sound like a little baby. :mad:
