@Localhost127

The boat with 29 gallons I believe is right around 900lbs. Pretty much right next to what the jet ski weighed. The fastest I have seen yet was 58.1mph. The engine is a 4 cylinder out of an ultra250x (250hp) jet ski.

They look fun but I got to say as a kayaker having these guys roll up on you around a bend going 30 miles an hour with 0 reaction or braking distance is not so fun. You hear that comin and you best just get out the way. And I also have to say I’m grouping these fellers with jet boats in general it’s only been fishing jet boats I’ve delt with floating in southern Missouri. These boats sure do look fun be safe and keep the respect!

@Localhost127

3 жыл бұрын

Totally agree with that, we try and stay as far away from the floaters as possible while maintaining plane (as the slower you go the larger the wake is) fortunately we can hit the brakes in these small boats if we need to by throwing the reverse lever. I’ve had to do that in a few of my videos. Thanks for giving your perspective on these, helps us see it from the other side :)

Very cool video and capable boat. Question, why do the mini jet boats go with a V hull versus most other jet boats that use flat bottom or 5 degree bottoms? Is it due to the intake of the engine?

@Localhost127

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you! Reason for the 10-15* dead rise angles is these things need to be able to turn pretty well when on plane and in 4-6” of water. The flat bottoms certainly draft higher in the water, but can’t maneuver near as well. It’s basically just trying to find the right balance of maneuverability and planing depth.
