Hey guys, Just wondering who installs UHMW on the east coast? I am in the VA area. I know James river jets does it, but he just glues on 1/8" sheets and charges $2200. Yikes. If I am going to pay that kind of cash, I would want to mechanically fasten 3/8-1/2".

SOLD I have a 2008 Mercury 60/40 4 stroke long shaft outboard jet for sale. Control box and wiring harness included!! The motor is in pristine condition and runs flawlessly. I have owned it for a little over a year and have been very happy with it. It starts right up, idles perfectly and runs...

Hey fellas, Long time, no see. Still running my 16' rhino with 4 stroke 60/40. I love the motor but with a tunnel cut in, .190 gauge bottom, UHMW on the bottom, bait tank and live well (30-40 gallons) and two people we are wanting more throttle. Anyways, I came across a 1993 90/65 Johnson...

Hey guys I am getting ready to mount my center console on my tracker grizzly down to the floor. The floor has a very shallow deadrise, maybe 3 degrees. I was wondering what size rivet nuts would be ample to hold the console firmly in place? Would you just go through the aluminum floor or try...

Hey guys, I picked up a nice 1754 tracker in great shape. Bottom looks brand new. Anyways I striper and catfish so I want to convert this thing from SC to CC. I am already in the process. The consoles are tall in these so I was able to use the console and fabricate it into a CC. Anyways, I...

Hey guys! Been fishing the heck out of my CC jet. Really enjoying it. We are going to be staying in a house off of the Rappahannock river (Chesapeake Bay watershed) in a week or so. I have looked up the salinity in the section of river that I would be running, and it looks to be 10-12.5% salt...

Hey guys I am converting my stick steer over to a center console. I have a 13' EZ Glide stick steer in Great shape. Steers very smoothly. I also have the side mount bracket for it. I took this off a 16' boat. It should also work on a 14' boat. I would like $150 plus shipping. Save $100 plus...

Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I believe it is coming from my jet lower bearings. Maybe the seals are going? What are some signs of lower bearing failure? Sounds like its getting worse too.

Hey guys does anyone know of a place online that I can order UHMW intake fins? I live 15 minutes from James River Jets, but he said the guy who makes/supplies him with the fins is in Florida and it could be weeks and weeks before he gets more in!!!

Hey fellas, just wondering what you guys think about a 2007 Mercury 4 stroke EFI. I have always had 2 stroke carbed motors and can fix em as good as new. Something about having to take it to the shop for a diagnostic, and really not being able to work on the engine aside from waterpump...

Hey guys I was working on a jet boat project and ended up selling my motor and going to sell the boat separately. I realized that I was going to spend about 7-8k total plus lots of time and I have found some nice rigs up and down the east coast for around the same price. Anyways, I found a 1648...

Okay guys, so I was wondering, how in the world are you all getting the big brass nut that holds the jet impeller off? In the manual it tells you to bend the tabs straight and take it off. I dont know about you guys but the engine just spins when I turn the nut (duh!!). It seems as if it would...

So, got a 2000 Merc 60/40 Jet, short shaft and a 1999 Polar Kraft Mod V (6 degree deadrise) with center keel. Issue I am dealing with is I have an untouched transom (no mounting holes) so I don't want to make swiss cheese trying to get my mounting height right. I am also considering either...

Hey guys just wondering what you would do in this case. My 1648 calls for a 50hp engine. Obviously if I got a 50hp powerhead and put on the jet foot I'd have 35hp. I'd like to put on a 60/40 or even a 75/50. I am aware that most engines (even factory jets) still have the powerhead HP in the...

Hey fellas, I got a really nice welded 1648 Polar Kraft boat. It has a Mercury 25/20 Jet tiller steer on the back. We can run with a full load, about 16-17MPH and run in 6" of water or so. I use this boat in rocky, skinny water. The bottom is coated with a kevlar epoxy to help protect the...
