    Jack Plates and Outboard Jets

    Good topic fellas. I was actually looking into buying a lower unit (prop) for my jet for when i go to larger lakes and need to make a good 20plus mile run. I'm wondering if I need to lower my motor when converting to a lower unit. I beleive my transom is a 26 inch, 60/40 2007 etec dlp.

    west coast jet jons

    I currently have an outboard jet but it is my dream to make my own inboard jet. How much does it take to make your own. I'm sure it's time consuming etc. I'd like to put the uhmf plastic bottom on the boat and then put a good inboard jet into it.

    Looking for a Jet

    Ok, I'm looking for a jet for my pops. I'm not new to jet boating as I own an 1852 legendcraft with a 60/40 etec. He is looking for a 16ft no less than 48 in wide. Primary use will be fishing so he will have trolling motor, batteries, livewell etc. Anyway, we are looking to stay away from the...

    Outboard Jet RPM question.

    A buddy of mine told me to check the RPM in my owners manual for my full throtle operating rpm. Well, I did and it is rated for 5500 to 6000 rpm (2007 60 horse Evinrude e-tec) at full throtle operating range. Well, that is with an acutal lower unit and prop. Anyway, I am only getting, with my...

    Reaction Innovations "Swamp Donkey" Frog

    As nuts as that sounds, you couldn't be more right. The more funky stuff you throw at them, the harder they smack it!

    Stupid rocks! And wasps!

    Well, I was out on the river Saturday and was slammin the smallies. Best 5 I had 15 to 17lbs. Fattest bellies I've ever seen. I had to sniff one of there bellies to see if they were putting coco butter on them for the stretch marks. LOL! Anyway, back to the stupid rocks. Coming home after...

    Baitcaster for tiny crankbaits???

    I'm currently in the market to replace my Team diawa 103hva wich is by far the best small crank thrower I have used. When I say small cranks, I'm talkin approximatly 1/5 oz. My team diawa is dying! Anyway, I was considering the "new" diawa advantage. Just wondering what everyone else...

    My new boat

    I bought my boat from the jet doctor at www.thejetdoctor.net, and will do most of my business there. He sells Blazer sports, legendcraft(my boat) and, weldcraft. The Blazer sport and legendcraft is virtually the same hull. Don't know anything about the weldcrafts but I'm sure there solid...

    My new boat

    Just local stuff. We don't have much water in Indy other than a couple small lakes and rivers, so it's tough fishing. Every cove seems to have a boat in it. Lots of pressure! I mean LOTS of pressure. You usually don't catch a fish without holes in there jaw. Hence the purchase of the jet...

    My new boat

    New boat has been just awsome this year. I've got a 3rd and a 4th place finish in tournies so far this year. Got one on the Indy white white river tomorrow morning and I'm hoping to drop in more mojo into the boat with a 1st place finish, but who knows. It was funny because the first time I...

    Trolling motor Isolator bolts????

    That is nuts! I got a Fastenal locally as well. If they only sell in bulk, I'll check with my brother. His company gets stuff from them all the time. He may be able to get us something in a smaller bulk. I did put my trolling motor on the other day with the old system witch was just lead...

    Stupid weight gain!

    Man, I never thought I would get out of the health kick I had 3yrs ago until I met my current girlfriend. Let me just say, I was 205 when we met and I did 2 off road triathalons the summer we met. I would run 8mi a day 5days a week, then mtn bike usually 10 (off road of course). Then we get...

    Trolling motor Isolator bolts????

    I'd be willing to go to 5/16. Let me know when you hear something. Truth be known, you probably have to pay next to nothing for the bolts, but the "special tool" would be 500 bucks! LOL! This world is a sick place man! LOL!

    Trolling motor Isolator bolts????

    Well, I got a total of 14 I would need and would take more if it meant completing an order. The holes drilled in my deck are 1/4 in in size. Don't know if you are going that big or not that small, but maybe we can work out something on an order. Pm me when you find out something and maybe we...
