Pro Boat Formula Fastech Jet Drive Project

Because my 1st jet boat, Shockwave 26, would just spin out in a turn.

turn fins

Hey Diego;
Why is it again you think you need turn fins on a jet boat. If you have enough power to the jet it will turn in it's own length at full speed and be going the other way while everything else on the water is still thinking about turning!

I hope that's sarcasm skipskip! That jet is made to push a MUCH bigger boat!

Im still waiting to see it go...

Me too!

I have completed a custom "quick release" motor mount for her, I just need to install the mount and couple it to the drive. Then she's ready for the water! (still needing turn fins though)

True, but they both have the infamous "flat spot" on the hull.

Hey Diego;
Jet Skiis, Personal water craft, what ever, are made to be very maneuverable. They would be a lot less fun if they were deep Vee's. One of those jet skiis in your photos is a modified V some place between a shallow and Deep V.
