I have a Jet boat that I installed hand controls on = 55mph all day long, new jet, fresh rebuilt 403 olds motor, new stringers, new seats new wiring, etc.

this rebuild took me 5 years to complete - its just plain sexy...but now life is taking me down a diff path as I have diff goals now and I no longer have any interest in this project... probably because its done and nothing left to work on lol - If anyone is looking for an accessible boat I have one - open to offers or trade ! get in touch or if others are local I can take you for a hell ride too when time allows !!! Cheers J

jimmyt, that boat looks great and the engine looks pretty sweet! Are you sure it's 55mph tops? Seems like it could do more! It's been a long project, it's too bad you have to give it up. I'd love to come try it out but I live way too far away
