The salmon slayer!

The family jet boat is finally mine! my parents bought this boat 12 years ago and we have fished it alot. They finally decided to upgrade and i couldn't stand seeing her with someone else so i had to buy her. Plus she matches my drift boat thats in the background Ive caught alot of salmon and steelhead out of her and i plan on keeping it going that way. I love this boat and shes going to keep running the river every fall just because of the centimental value she has with her.

Congrats on the new/old baby.

I know how hard it is to let some of them go.

Man, those Western jet rigs are awesome! I know of a few raft/kayak only whitewater rivers around here I could terrorize with one of those :mrgreen: Let's hear some specs on the old girl!

Its got a chevy 350 with 800 hours and we got her out of oregon rotting away in a barn. It had sat for 7 years and when we got it home we changed the oil put a fresh battery in it and ditched the carb and replaced it with fuel injection and electronic ignition. Shes getting a little face lift next winter with a fresh rebuild and new paint with updated decals but shes still gonna be the predatoress :mrgreen: Heres a picture from a last minute trip on monday to the lake. Had to take the pup on his first boat trip was my excuse
