GT Jet Project
nes-cv23:
Time to stop talking about it, and start on it! A buddy of mine had a little jet boat, you know the ones with a jet ski set up, but in a little boat. Lots of fun!! But then I thought... A little gt-150 would be a great boat with a jet.. I had another gt I was going to fix up so I just needed a jet boat for a donor motor and drive.. Found one! It's a 94 four winns fling with a 115hp omc motor. Freshly rebuilt.. But the guy didn't want to pay his bill on the rebuild. So after 6 years my motor man said I could buy it if I paid for the parts used in the rebuild. Deal!

Should be an interesting project! Look forward to seeing this come together and how it works!

First step.. Cut the donor apart.. It actually came apart easy. They had the same rotten core that the glastrons do. :) Split it in half to get at the motor and drive. All the controls, stearing and gauges will be used again. The gt is a little smaller so everything should fit.

Next. Time to take the motor out and see how it all goes togather. I think this will work out good. Very simple set up.

Next. Time to split the gt.. But this is enough for this weekend.. By the way the gt is a 76 with no wood left in it that's good.
