"OVERACTIVE" is at factory getting a little paint and polish. Motors are out and headers have been sent to CMI for testing and polishing. Plus new starters, raw water pumps and plugs/wires while there out. Bilge is getting awlgrip paint and all motor mounts etc. are getting repowdercoated. Gen set is getting new belts and impellors while it's out. Swim platform is off for blasting and painting and repainting the transom. A few other little paint touch-ups and it should be just like new when it's done :cool:

As soon as the tunnel ram gets back from getting ceramic coated this will be ready to drop back in the Jetboat. New 10 qt. pan with floating baffles and gold irridium finish from Tom at Jetboat Performance in California. Tom is the man on these old Jetboats :grinser010:

Tunnel ram? You are supposed to put a blower on it!!!:evilb:

Did a little prepping and painting in the bilge while the motor was out. An old Jetboat is a labor of love. What do you think Drew ? :drink:

Oh yeah!! lookin good!!:drink:

Thanks guys :cool: I dont like a dirty bilge lol. You have to run a special pan on a Jetboat because of the pump intake and the one that I had on there was homemade and leaked like hell. I think this new one should cure the problem. Drew check out Toms website www. jetboatperformance.com He's a wizard with these old jets and will bend over backwards to help you.

Tom is a good guy! I have bought Berkeley parts from him. He has saved me alot over what others charge. Very knowledgeable and takes the time to talk to you.:drink:
