Texas coast scooter jet tunnel hull I recently rebuilt. Still tweaking a few things but pleased so far. 13' total length with 60" bottom, 70" beam, and 24" key slot.

Archery, What tiller did you go with on your Mercury? Looks like they offer a basic model with remote T/T and key switch or the "Big Tiller". I haven't seen the Big Tiller in person or priced either. I did however get a price on the new Etec which was $8200 without tiller. I'd love the 50#...

This is what I have also found between the Yamaha and Mercury. The Yamaha is almost 8K while the Merc is under 6k. Ed's Marine is offering the Mercury for $5k but will not ship it. Nice to have the price as leverage against the local dealer though. Lil' Blue Rude, thanks for the heads up on the...

If I remember when I measured the tunnel, it was 14" wide, 3" high, and 24" long. It probably isn't the best tunnel design but have seen others in our area running it with success. Looks like I'm leaning towards the Mercury. Larger price difference then I originally thought.

I've been working on a little 13' Texas scooter jet tunnel project over the last year when time allows. Had to repair a few spots on the bottom along with welding up a bunch of previous owner garbage on the deck, etc. It's been slow going but recently making a little more progress. I like the...

I'm sure it sold quick and ad was pulled. Sorry

New around here but thought this might help someone who's in the market for a basic jet boat. No association just thought it might be a good deal. I would think the motor is worth almost the asking price if in good shape. https://2coolfishing.com/ttmbforum/showthread.php?t=855961

Really nice!

Here's a another view of the boat. It's a cool little scooter just needs a lot of TLC. The rigging is pretty bad and I'll be removing a lot screws and hardware and welding up holes. I haven't figured out the bottom thickness but its at least .125 or 3/16 with 1 1/2" angle structure. The 50hp has...

From what I've been told, the guy built a few of these rigs and they were jets. The tunnel is less then 3" high which is not the optimal design for a prop. I've owned and been around a lot tunnel prop boats and currently have a large tunnel hull (Shallow Sport) but know very little about jets...

This boat is also for the middle Texas coast. I'm pretty sure I figured out why it doesn't have a jet on it now. Ran it across the scales this weekend and it's 1880lbs with trailer. This is with the 50hp Yamaha (187lbs), two battery's, power pole, and 14gal of gas. Even if I shaved the battery...

Your tunnel is closer to what I have. The manufactured boats like SeaArk, Lowe, etc. seem to have much smaller tunnels. I'm just concerned why a previous owner would take a jet tunnel hull and change to prop. Makes me think there's a possible issue. Maybe not. The tunnel picture makes it looks...

New member looking for info on a recent project boat I acquired. Its a Texas scooter style aluminum boat with what I consider to be a oversized jet tunnel. I've seen one other hull similar to this but didn't get a look at the tunnel. From what I understand, several were built in the 90's. It...
