OK so Not OffShore

But I picked up this Tub for next to nothing and will be starting a rehab this winter. Prob 16-18'. Some sort of Chevy V8 and Jet drive.
I have seen a bad pic of one that was in a Bond movie and trying to figure out which movie so I can some get paint ideas.
Probably early 60s. and the name on it is JEW CANOE lol. Some say change it- I say Bad Luck.
Any Bond fanatics that might know which one? Already watched Dr No and found out you can't even get old Bond movies free on steaming that I can find. Hmmmm
(( Try google - Bond film boat scenes / images ....

Movie was Thunderball (1965)
Interestingly learned that as Buehler is still around and that was on their site linked below.

Says they even renamed the 19 Thunderball after the movie.
BTW does the jet even steer? Hard to picture the way it looks.

Perfect!! thank you Cheech- that is the pic I have also. I knew OSO would come through.
As for the Jet steer- good question- I would assume it pivots but have not done much yet. It does have a Steering wheel

I bought that Pantera up in Wisconsin and used it in Indiana lake Michigan before selling to Caney on a winter's day in the late 90s with a bad port motor,
Motors were 454 mercs 30 over 490hp and has ballast tank lots of good times and fast times. Still cant shake that Classic stuff now riding a 88 Manta 32 SM twin 575s
