Mini jets

Haha I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this vid. I wonder if there was any damage to boat.

No it’s full uhmw and built pretty tough it didn’t hit hard.

I think if he would have youtubed it, 17.4 million views would be worth some serious money. not sure what platform he used tho...


With that shop and the matchin bulldog in the background, I don't think he needed the cash.

Can’t post a link it’s on a closed group. It’s on a page called “people that would rather jet boat than work”

Jetstream adventure boats build beauty mini hulls and the best is they have the option, Kit, tacked, or fully welded. 10 or 12ft windshield or sporty

Put a apex / nytro motor with turbo in that little bastage.

Yamah Jmax or the MR-1 as they’re called in the wave runner. Great motor super easy on fuel and run smooth as butter and 165hp. Pump is very fragile though. You look at gravel wrong and wrecks the impeller. Had one in a harbour craft.

Riva racing has a turbo kit for that motor to.

My old mini had a 120 sport jet, it was a pre 98 model and was a POS, id like to find a 175 motor/pump combo, freshen it up, oil injection delete, would be a slick little unit in a 12ft jetsteam, guy could get into some slick remote hunts!

Don't know where your thinking of for remote hunts, hopefully not alberta because I think I have checked most everything on that front and its easier access with quads! Just thought I'd let you know in case you hadn't researched it that much.

 

[NoBrakes!]

Whats a quad? a jet boat with 4 engines and pumps? lol

Just go 200 then you got fuel injection and more power. They are same weight pretty much and more parts for the 200. And who doesn’t want more power! I think they’re a better motor and pumps then a pwc set up, way tougher and will give the boat more room.

I agree, the SJ package would be cool in a mini but its heavier than other options.

I don't like the mechanical seal on the DOO pump.

a friend said if he built one again it would be as light as possible vs heavy and having power. big difference staying on step in the slow speed, braided stuff.

10 foot boat with N/A 2 stroke

I ran a Bratt 12 ft menace for 3 summers was a hoot, only down sides I saw were rough riding as only weighed 800lbs total on big water they are bumpy. and although my kiwi pump was all alum the stock impeller was weak for the task if to run much gravel through it. If you build one do some research on the donor most are plastics. Also there are custom Hd impellers I just never got one. They are meant for shallow braided rivers are shocking how little water you can run and how well they handle. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bratt guys to anyone they were excellent to work with as I did most of the rigging. There are a few on jetboatsforsale web site. Outlaw are obviously excellent as well just a much bigger shop might be tough to get help to rig yourself.
