John... you are an artist my friend. I love what you have been doing with this build and the Berkley pump is off the charts. You sure have put your minions to work. I have Day Cruiser on the brain.

John,

Being your friend and seeing your work so often, I always think I tend to get a little jaded and harder to impress because I expect to see great work from you. But I am really impressed with this jet drive. I'm blown away...

Art said it!! I couldn't say it any better. DITTOS,John!!!! B)

Hello.........thank you all so very much for the kind comments.........I really do appreciate them :) .......the interior is finished........I painted the steering wheel with a wood grain effect........and painted the steering column Alclad........I also painted the Berkeley jet drive and pump and made some steering arms.......I used "Pro Tech" nuts and bolt ends and rubber fuel line for the cables.........I will work on the engine next........thanks for looking.

John, your boat is just "Killer." I used to follow Unlimited Hydroplane racing and drag boat racing back in the 90's, and the prop driven boats were always faster than the "jet drives."
