I know where Redhorse is, we used to put in there before they even had a ramp in the 80's. I haven't been on the rivers in years, I had been going to Mark Twain Lake mostly , but I sold my fish-n-ski last year. I usually go to Ulhemeyer Access on the Burbouse or Chouteau Claim Access where the...

Yep, It's a mod V, it's the 1670MV Open on this site. https://k0swi.microlnk.com/2BUYRIGHT/MS/B_NEW_J/RIVETED_JON%20BOATS,%20WITH%20WELDED%20SEAMS.htm I got it from Black Jack Marina on Mark Twain Lake it's a rental they retired. I'm not to far from you fender66 (at least in internet world )...

I think I'm going to put it together & try it, if it doesn't work I will probably sell the whole package to buy a new commercial boat to put a larger motor on so I can get around the horsepower rating. I just bought another jet pump for a older inline 6 mercury, because it was dirt cheap. Thanks...

I'm currently in the middle of a jet boat project & I'm rethinking my motor choice. I have a 16'x48" modified vee Landau jon boat that the jet will be going on it weighs roughly 300 empty. I have a 1995 40hp 4cyl Mercury 2cycle with a jet lower unit that is in great condition, but I believe...

Thanks for the pictures, that helps. I'm from St. Clair MO it's about 45 miles SW of St. Louis on I-44.

Thanks, I would appreciate it if you could post a pic. I seen on outboard jets that they with loan a spotfacer for a $50 deposit when you buy a jet unit, I might call them, but I bought my unit used so I'm not going to hold my breath on them loaning it to me. I'm pretty sure those holes line up...

I'm trying to mount a jet lower unit on my 1995 40hp 4cyl mercury and need to be able to bolt the lower unit on, but there is a stud where I need to put the bolt. Can I just remove the stud & drill the hole all the way through so I can put a bolt in from the top. The stud in the way is the...

I have no proof to back this up, but in my opinion long shaft motors are more plentiful if your thinking about buying a used one.

Did the steelflex stop, or slow down the leaks?
