Here a a few pics of my son's Jet boat.
He built this himself with no plans, just an idea in his head. It is a steel hull powered by a Falcon 4.1L motor through a 2 stage jet unit.

Just some pictures of my boat with a new coat of paint on the hull. It is fibre glass, but I gave it a good clean and sand and then applied 2 coats of good exterior enamal paint. It has been in the water about 4 or 5 times since it has been painted and it seems to be ’sticking’ all right.

The morning that I took these photos, I had gone onto Lake Rotorua Fishing. I managed to land 2 small trout, but released them back into the lake. I also failed to land another 2, one which looked like a nice fish. It is still cold out in the mornings but the weather is warming up.

my boat 

I have sold off my old dinghy and bought another boat that is more suitable for what I want to do. It is a fibreglass tri hull (boston whaler type) 3.1 metres long that is a lot more stable.
I have kept my little 4HP outboard and that works OK at the moment. With a few more horses, the boat would plane along nicely.
