    Water in Jet Pump

    Hi guys, I have a question. I have had two jets and have been pumping grease into the tube on the pump after each time I use the motor for years. Yesterday was the first time water has flushed out. What does this mean? Is this common? Or does this mean the bearings are compromised now? Thanks!

    G3 1656 CCJ ((New Lights & Neodymium 3/16/17 ))

    Hey There, I was wondering when you mounted your onboard charger in that location, did you bolt it through so the bolts are showing on the other side? How do you like it? how are those optimas holding up. Let me know, Ben

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    I think I scored an incredible deal… Searched craigslist nationally for months and ran into this 2000 miles away from me. 2012 1860 ccj with the F90 and 100 hours on it. $10,500.. It is beat up but it would look the same after I used it for a year. I ensured there was no liens, set up a you ship...

    Doesn't the river pro have have a deadrise? Same length width and weight as the 1860 ccj. With same hp. It Just doesn't have a jet tunnel. That would suck if I stuck it in my river. After paying 15k.

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    This just came up on craigslist. What do you guys think? Big bottom, 17/60? I guess the dead rise is my concern. https://sacramento.craigslist.org/boa/4293864175.html

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    Thanks for elaborating!! That's sick! You could run with 3-4 people couldn't you, if you just wanted to go cruising? Still run in 4-6"? My buddy has the 1652 alweld tunnel with a 35hp honda he goes up and down with 3-4 guys. The 1860ccj with a 115/80 and a 24v trolling motor rigger out the...

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    I have been reading people quoting that line quite a bit. Can you elaborate? My 1448 with a 25 hp jet will go anywhere That a river pro can go. If there is water flowing over it. Frankly the river pro is limited To where it can go because of size. Here is an example: your river Pro is not going...

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    "Think" :( The SeaArk has an extreme steering option that shortens the amount of turns you have to make on the wheel, do you find yourself cranking that a lot to turn on the g3? Three of my friends have steering wheels that run the same river and i can see them spinning the crap out of it to...

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    Yea, i wasn't paying to much attention to that comment, G3 has a whole line dedicated to the tunnel hull, so does most other manufacturers. I want the tunnel because that single inch that it raises the foot is huge when you are running in 4" water. Did you watch the first part of my video? would...

    What is the shallowest running jet boat?

    The g3 would be a first pick because I really like the design as well. The dry hull weight on the 1860 is 830lbs where as the seaark is 515-600lbs. That is like carrying around and extra person. If the g3 ran as shallow as the seaark (I don't know) I would go with the g3. I have heard from a few...

I am need of a jet boat that can haul 2-3 people, has a center forward console/standing to see obstacles, mainly set up for bass fishing and runs in...
