    Hi all,

    I live in central Minnesota along the Mississippi River with lots of shallow water and I was thinking about putting a jet motor from a Personal Watercraft / Jet Ski into a small 14' aluminum boat that I have. I have not really found to much on this on the internet, but I believe that some one has done this type of conversion. If any one has done this or seen this on the internet, some insight would be great.:confused:
    Thanks alot
    Tim

    There's a site(It has recently changed hands, though) called JetJon. Forums about that. It used to be fairly lively, but the last time I checked, it was pretty slow.

    Google JetFish. It's the name if the previous owner's homebuilt boat with PWC power.

    That's as helpful as I can be.
