Jet Boat
« on: September 09, 2015, 07:50:24 AM »
Seriously thinking about getting rid of my prop boat and getting a jet boat, that way I can fish rivers and lakes on calmer days.  Would definetly have a kicker on it.  Anyone have any experience with them or with a dealer/manufacturer?

A friend of mine has the 1875 Harbercraft with the Merc 200 Optimax drive.  We had it on the Shuswap River fishing salmon out of Enderby.  Great boat, capable of very shallow water travel.  It handled well, good ride, with excellent acceleration and manouverability.  Fuel efficiency for a jet was good.
