[QUOTE="Lil' Blue Rude, post: 187755, member: 4627"] Once you get use to running a jet there great. I prefer how they handle over a prop motor. Have you looked at something like a Blazer or a Legend Craft. www.blazerjetboats.com or www.legendcraft.com Alot of people here in Missouri run those boats. If your setting it up to fish I would look at a boat with some rake like the Blazer sport or an exterminator because when your on the front of the boat it is much more controllabe with the trolling motor because it lifts on the back of the boat a little easier to move around. It nothing crazy where the front of the boat would be dipping water or any thing like that, they set pretty level but they're alot easier to move. I own a 16' 42" Blazer SS and it so easy to move around that my buddy laid down on the deck one time and he could paddle with his arms and it was like you had a trolling motor on a normal boat. They're lighter then a boat with normal rake too. Defenitley a good idea to learn how a jet drives. Seen too many new guys wreck a jet because they didn't know how to drive it. [/QUOTE]
