Thanks for watching! Leave a comment, I still read all of them!
1:52 for anyone who doesn't have a nice friend nearby, I would get another piece of aluminum tubing and extend the existing intake by 2 7/8". Often that tubing comes in diameters and wall thicknesses such that they slide over / under then next size smaller / larger. I believe it's just referred to as telescoping. I get smaller tubing that way. I have bought larger square tubing that way as well. Alternatively, cut 2 7/8" out of the middle of the drive shaft and use a sleeve to connect and weld it back together although this might be a bit dodgy unless you have a decent lathe to make a nice tight sleeve. Love the project.
Just found your build series. I bought a Jetstream Headwater 10 foot kit about four years ago and now nearing full retirement finally starting to build. I'm actually making it a challenge to myself to fabricate everything myself including intake, stomp grate, and steering mechanism. Donor is a Yamaha Waverunner VX110 which doesn't compare to modern supercharged skis, but I was told by Jetstream owner would be more than adequate for a 10 foot.
I'm learning from your build experience and hiccups along the way.
Bob, I have been waiting for this update and appreciate the time and energy you put towards this project. I am probably about 9 months behind you, but plan on building the same boat and all of your insight (and more importantly) mistakes are really appreciated. Keep up the great work!
Cool, thanks!
Starting to look more and more like a jet boat!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome job ! Great details and descriptions. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to see it in action.
Thanks! 👍
Jet Boat project is looking good! When you cut the hole it would of been nice to be able to cut it short and narrow then use some sort of home made brake to bend it back to give the center more strength, but it's working. If needed, you could weld/rivet/screw a support around it. Looking good and it's great to have helping friends. Keep up the great work.
Wow you made the bottom of that boat look like Swiss cheese. It is good to have friends who can do things.
Looking sweet!
Thanks!
Obstacles and work arounds. Coming together now👍
Thanks!
Great progress. Looks awesome !!!
Thanks!
Great progress video! Im building a couple 6 foot 2 seater Sitka boats right now. When youre boat is done i hope to catch you on the water sometime when im in my Jetstream buccaneer too! Looking forward to your next video keep it up
Thanks!
Good job
Im working on a build where the engine is bigger than it should be for the hull... going to extend the pump out the transom further and extend the ride plate, i dont have extra space in front of the bulkhead in a small 6 foot. Something you could do on your next build too if you dont want to come thru the bulkhead again
It won't be long before you're on the water now Bob!
I hope so. Thanks for watching!
@@MakingStuff just want to keep giving you positive feedback! It's not easy putting yourself out there just to have folks pick you apart!
очень круто! уважаю!
M S Mini Jet). Name for the boat.
It's very cool. good job. How much is its full price? Assembly, motor and everything
Bom dia direto da Amazônia Brasileira, cidade de Manaus.
Parabéns pelo trabalho e pela aula didática sobre a construção!
Que material preto em placa que vc usou no fundo do jetboat?
Abraço e obrigado
Is it a concern that any of the screws will leak water? Was there any sealer used or a certain screw with a water tight sealing surface?
Rubber backed washers were used. No leaks yet.
Why didnt you remove the propeller, cut if of on that side, and remounted it? genuine question
The impeller has a spline on it too and is very difficult to remove, even with the correct tools.
Nice ' 👍👍👍
Thanks ✌️
Does it not worry you to put so many holes in a boat just for some plastic?
Nope
I keep looking at these… I think I’d skip the plastic and go get a bed liner sprayed on the bottom. Great work though.
The plastic is slippery and allows the boat to glide over land, sand and rocks.
How much time do you have into the whole build?
Been working on it off and on for about a year now. But I had some set backs along the way like health issues and other personal problems.
is the whole hull made of 6mm thick sheet?
No, the bottom is 1/4" (6.35mm), the sides and transom are 1/8" (3.175mm), the stringers are 3/16" (4.7625mm)
Hi, did the plastic come with the kit? Also can you talk about how you are securing it?
Yes the plastic and hardware came from Jetstream.
@@MakingStuff cool! Thank you.
@@MakingStuff Just wondering about all the holes in the bottom of the boat for mounting the UHMW plastic. Do the screws create a water tight seal or do you have to go back and seal every one from the inside?
@@gizmobowen There are rubber backed washers and nylocks that go on the other side.
So, you are threading into the aluminum, tightening bolts in, and then installing the washers and Nyloks?@@MakingStuff
Do you have the plans for this ?
No, it's a kit from Jet Stream Adventure Boats.
ahh why are you using a friction blade to cut aluminium??!! use a carbide blade. how do you not know this? pretty embarassing if your trying to pose as some sort "how to channel" if you dont know simple stuff like this.
Little harsh don't you think??!?
Using the exact perfect tool to cut something isn't really necessary. Whatever gets the job done.
👍👍👍👍👍👍🎶🎶
