    Fishing from Jet Boat

    Is it "ok" to fish from a jet boat?  I heard it was ok, just not from a V-Drive boat...  Why is that? Anyway, just asking because after seeing those guys catching all those fish at the Lake Saturday makes me want to go out just to do some fishing.  But my fish-slayer boat (Baja 16SS) is still...

    Jetboat operating (driving) and setup questions

    Now that i have had my boat out a few times, I got a few questions: 1.  How should I setup the manual control on my diverter?  Should the nozzle hang down a little (point down) at the bottom most position to help get on plane easier?  I think it's set just straight back (I guess called...

    Seat/Upholstery care? What stuff?

    What's good stuff to put on your vinyl seats to protect them and keep them soft?  Anything in particular?  Not sure about Armor All, it seems to make stuff last not as long and makes some stuff get chalky over time....
