I like your new boat. What are you going to name her?

@Darth-Baiter driving them is almost like dirt track racing or Mario cart.  You basically power slide them and counter steer. Depending on the situation you will manipulate the throttle.  You really need to set up turns in a jet. When I go through really rocky areas and shallow areas I already have my line picked. 
 

 

ahhh...so the original Drift Boat!!

@Skunkmaster-ki don’t think I am going to. I’ve never named a boat, truck gun or dirt bike.

@airshot so a jet drive are direct drive. There is no gear box it is forcing water into the impeller for cooling. As far as MPH a tunnel will run slightly slower than a none tunnel jet.  The benefit of the  tunnel is the jet intake will not hit the hull will take a brunt of the hit. Jets lose about a 20% from s prop motor. So a 115/80 like I have is a 115 outboard if it had a prop on it but, at the jet nozzle it is only 80. A 60/40 is a  60 HP prop motor but, with a jet it’s 40HP.  I hope this answers your questions. 

Yes...many thanks...looks like a fun ride, when are tickets goin up for sale ??
