That's the plan! But reading in the comments you got about twice as much motor than I need for my little 1236. I'm down here on the flint (looks like the same body of water as there) I've thrown around the idea for surface drives and long tails too but I think I want a jet, there really isn't any vegetation to worry about and there's so many rocks right here on the fall line that I'm sure I'd bust a prop every time out. (The skeg can only protect from the bottom) . So I'm looking for a donor ski!

I am currently putting a 215hp supercharged rotax in a 14' boat. There is no such thing as too much power!

So what would you do to keep the cavitation and surging of the engine when air gets under the boat from a wave? Would get super annoying and probably make you loose thrust in some dangerous spots around my parts.
@brandon_saville2 жыл бұрын
It would happen fairly often with this boat since it is a flat bottom. My current build is a very deep V and will not have the cavitation issue in chop

I live close by and want to do a jet boat build. Looks like a blast

Great 'Heads Up' on bottom damage. With Great Speed comes Great Responsibility to boat and crew.

Nice, what ramp did you drop in at to make this run? Have a jet myself I haven't tried on the hooch yet.

I live on this section of the river but we put in at paces mill.

If you guys find this material it's almost like mud flap material you can put it on the bottom of the boat and it Glides right over rocks

Yep, its called UMHW. Really cool stuff. Planning on using it on my next build.

Some cavitation issues
@brandon_saville3 жыл бұрын
I have trim installed now and it fixed the cavitation issues. Also has a full wood deck over the rear so it sits down in the water another inch or two

Did you guys reinforce the bottom or you just didn't give a shit I want to do the same thing to my boat but I don't know if I want to rockproof the bottom or not
@brandon_saville3 жыл бұрын
We did not. I will be putting it on my next build. This was a budget build and the UMHW alone would cost more than i have in this whole thing. I did put Fasco super slick 2000 on the bottom which did protect it a little bit.

Any idea how slowing you can get on plane?
@brandon_saville2 жыл бұрын
It gets on plane very fast. I sold the boat but i would guess 10mph
