Find some random person at the place where you run your boat to take a vid!

Or put the camera on a tripod and just drive the boat in the view of the camera.

The newly fitted cabin is doing a great job of keeping my engine dry, despite plenty of nasty spin-outs.

Status: offline 		It's home made...

friendly plastic intake, steering nozzel and outlet, brass impellor and lost wax cast stator.

The stator (wax bottom piece) in one of the attached photos is fairly similiar, the aluminium jet unit shell in the other picture is my previous jet unit.

What length is your boat ?
If you look in my video, you will see my boat is bouncing a bit at speed, and so I'm considering extending my steering nozzletop lip down a little to provide the equiv of trim plates. am considering a ride plate too... will see ! My boat is 1005mm long by 600 wide.
