Reply With Quotevery cool, thanks for sharing it with us. i love when people think outside the box and get creative. looks like you built dad a cool little boat. many happy years of enjoyment.
Here are some pics of a little jet boat we built in the farm here in the Philippines.
The hull is fiberglass, 13ft long, deep-vee. I run a 550cc Suzuki 3 cylinder supercharged 4-stroke engine from a Super-Carry van (roughly 55hp), and attached it to a SeaDoo jetpump.
It runs a decent 38mph on GPS, and consumes roughly 2 gallons of fuel per hour.
I run it in the sea, thats why I ran a rather deep vee. My dad just loves his little toy. He wanted the comforts of a boat in the size of jetski, and this is what I built him. I wanted to run a jetski engine, but he wants the silence and calmness of a 4-stroke.
He named it 6.9 as his 21ft outdrive boat is the 69. Hehehe.
