oh, and the red jetster looks like a Tahiti to me. anyone know if they splashed it? http://www.***boat.com/image_center/...re_003-med.jpg http://www.***boat.com/image_center/...cs_004-med.jpg thats my favorite splt deck any advice about 36" split already sawed
Was the hallet 18 in the ad a splash of the spectra 18?
That's a Hallett. I had a new 1975 with an olds. That is a Hallett original. While the deck looks like other bubble decks the bottom is different. Great riding boat for its size and corners flat. Tom Bandy would be the guy to talk to. He has that same boat with a DNE single carb motor and a MPD pump running 96 MPH in the quarter at Ming. I believe he goes by "Old Squirt"
OK!! do we have to go there!!..lol
it is not a hallett,...and the reason why...the transom gunnell on a hallett has a vertical splash guard about 2.5-3'' tall and an eliminator has nothing, like this jetster, or whatever the name is!
but hey...never claimed to know everything... just taking notice! lol

Todd, your right. I saw the bubble, the drop in the gunnel at the front seat and what looks like a Hallett sticker. Your are correct about the rear gunnel area. Some of the later years of the Hallett had a raised rear gunnel like a rear spoiler. You know your shit dude.
"SHIT" maybe....everything....never! J/K
it might not even be an elim. splash... the way the man. slutted the molds around in the 70's....it could be anything!!!
thats why i have respect for the v-drivers...when you see a v-drive, its a good chance you can name the hull from a distance!
P.S. i would have to say that the rogers hulls are in that same catagory!!lol
when i was bout 10 yoa my uncle and i ( the one with the red-n-white ROGERS!!) would sit in the channel and take turns guessing at the type of hulls would pass through! its definitly kinda wierd, what you remember from your childhood, huh?
The boat handles really good. I would say it does probably about 60-70 mph. It has a 460 with a jacuzzi jet pump. I am the 3rd owner of it and when the second owner had it he left it in the sun without a tarp on it and the clear coat bubbled and peeled off, and he cut a foot by 2 foot hole in the wood under the dash and the styrofoam pellets are coming out. I am tearing it down and rebuilding it. So I am trying to find the best way to re-do it all so down the line I won't have any problems.
