Jet Boat
 

Anybody ever hear of a TX19 jet boat by Youngblood? Ive been offered a complete boat with new pump no engine for 2000.00. I still have an engine left from my 32 footer to drop in. Trying to make a little profit.

Nice ride for that era of boat. Tx19 if I remember right is a sort of modified tunnel hull, yes? also what kind of pump , Dominator or Berkely? go over to the performance boats site they have a section ....Just For Jets.


If it is in good shape go for it. I used to own a jet....wish I had never sold it, just like a go cart on the water.

the tx19 is a great hull. There is a website that will decifer the vin hull on the hull as to who made it. The mold has been around for awhile. Just google youngblood jet boats

Thanks guys, I googled it and this was a very popuar hull. They call it a gull wing. The one Im looking at has a new berkley pump with droop snoot and mechanical jetovator. The hull is in excellent shape, stored indoors and no paint just plain white. I have a 622ci talldeck chevy to drop in. I want to sell the engine but I thought it might sell quiker if its in a boat.

Go for it, You will love it! If I wasnt working on a project know I would be pm-ing you on how much you want for it :)

just sold the same boat. very popular hull. excellent performer. with 500 hp that boat should rocket to 70mph+
IMO- if the boat is solid, 2k is a steal, big time!! place diverter/ jetovator alone can be worth 800.00

Set up right if that motor makes over 700 HP you are looking at busting 100 easy!

Had a new one back in the late 70s was set up for drags.Had a berckley pump 2 piece bowl on it and a half a droop snoot,bushed down to 1 3/4 was set up by a guy in mich. by the name of palmer bagwell ."Was running a 331" small block ran 87 in a quarter believe it or not.My hull was super light. It was the year SOUTHWIND TOOK IT OVER OR HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THEM OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT ( long time ago). Don't really remember.Just know that small block would smoke them big motors.My 2 cents

I had one back in the early 80s. Ran a roller 427cid. the boat ran in the mid 80s. Try it you might like it.

I'd be interested in buying it with the power you have. You had better not drive it or you'll keep it.
