such a great build. amazing workmanship and so happy you successfully completed the project to such a high level of detail. cheers and again, phenomenal build sir!

I'm not even into boats, and I thought this build was aces ! Gotta love a hotrod, water jets or wheels ! Well done!

I’ve had this kind of idea in my head for a long time I just haven’t had a clue on where to start. Great work on this build and from the rest of the comments I can tell you have left some inspiration. Really glad you took the time to document this process

Was wanting to do an antique fiberglass jet boat thought Jet jon boats were ugly until u showed me the light. Well deserved congrats

Best way to build one I've seen so far with using the hull out of the jet ski. A lot of these are really sketchy but you done a very nice job on the whole thing. I love it! Great work!

Nice job. I worked 25 years in the marine industry as a master marine technician and a rigger.

Best jet Jon build I've seen. Thank you for sharing

I can really appreciate the time effort and work that went into this build. I would like to build a lesser version of this with smaller motor for fishing small lakes and rivers, target speed about 25 mph. I have an idea to use a 30 to 50 hp regular boat motor but move it inboard and then use a jetski jet pump and ether lay the boat motor over or use the lower unit gear box but right under the motor to hook it all up. Jetski pumps are cheap, old boats are cheap and old 2 stroke outboards are cheap and very compact so I will see how it goes.

That is an awesome boat...overbuilt, overpowered and looks good!

Great job on your Boat. Beautiful. Your video has really helped me get some ideas to start my project. Thank you

Wow, that is the coolest johnboat ever by a big measure!

Wooooooow! WICKED AWESOME!!! You gotta know you guys are creating a new Industry Standard!

I stand in awe of your fabrication skills. Well done indeed! I will say that I had a hard time reading while looking at your pictures.

I have seen your video before , best built that's out there , smart for reinforcing the hull ! !

nice... my respect to you you are the kind of guy I would love to hang out with..building cool shit other people wish to have...

Brother you are a magician with the fabs ,truly remarkable and dawn good job I love it

Sigh... I've lost my will to ever build or fab anything again. After seeing this amazing re-fab project and the fabulous results I think I'll sell my welder and tools and go live in the woods!!!

A nice build you are a talented boat builder looks like it will take you on many adventures have fun, straight shooting and tight lines.

Awesome build. I was a little slow in thinking that a jet can go anywhere and that gravel was the worst enemy but found that weeds are just as bad. The only thing is with a outboard jet the motor can be raised up and cleaned out by hand.

That's got to be one of the coolest projects on YT, what a dude !!!!

Excellent build and fabrication skills!

Quite a project. Looks great. Gotta love the smile when first drive.

Man you got some skills Sir, that was a really neat build. As a kid my dad built me 3 wheelers, go karts, motorcycles, etc.. But your skills are on another level. Very nicely done. lol I have a 1754 that is part of the reason this was really neat vid.

After 23 years in the marine industry Ive seen countless fishing boats / ski boats etc. But your build here has to be the most versatile Ive seen . The seadoo engine would have to be my only dislike . There are far better options as far as reliability and performance but if its what was on hand or a cheap buy more power to you. Fantastic build easily the best I have seen

I want one!!! by far one of the best build and very cleaned as well.. going to try to build one down the road.

Besides having to be a speed reader, great build

Nice job dude ! ! ! ! Enjoyed your video !

Excellent build

Ridiculously nice job!

Great job and attention to detail.

wow, amazing build! The turbo made me smile.

I’ve seen some really Jank builds on here you did a fantastic job it looks factory nice!

Awesome this is exactly what I want to build

Very nice build, very good fabrication work I give it a 10.

Man I gotta say you put some work into that Jon boat. I really like it! I would buy one if you built one or made to sell. I'm sure a lot of folks would. The black trim on the green looks amazing. Anyway....FINE FINE work you did...Damn good!!!

Nice handcraft! Congrats handy man!

Sweet build and video 👍🏻

That blew my mind. Awesome fabrication skills

very nice fab work! attention to detail is perfect!

Beautiful build!!

wow that's awesome . you're a very talented fabricator / machinist

Supercharger sounds awesome!

Amazing.. You sir are a genuine engineer.!.

Wow! Really nice fab work! That thing is bad a**

Very impressive!

Super clean build!

Very nice work, looks great !!

Well done. That's some impressive fab.

That is the smoothed fabrication I've ever seen for one !! My friends look like priuses compared to yours. Well done.

Your slideshow is just as fast as your bad ass boat:)

Very cool That looks extremely time consuming but worth it!

Awesome build

Nice! Loved thé video and even more at the end! I’m from Kapuskasing Ont.

This is one of the coolest boats ever bro👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁

I am truly very impressed

Love the video, love the boat. I've been wanting one since I've seen them. It would be awesome to have a boat like yours, especially with the rivers in my area.

that thing moves! i bet you could go through about 6 inches of water. i can only imagine the look on people's faces when you fly past there $50,000 river jets.

I've been thinking about something like this for years. Work of art sir! I want!

great job! seadoo usually not play in the shallow water river but jetboat do. so in my opinion that weld 3 more bars on the intake to instead the rake

all i can say is WOW.. im so fuckin' amaze by this build...

Amazing Job Congrats!

Amazing Work, I dream of one as well.

great build!

Incredible!

Solid build bro 👍

Gr8 build bro

Very nice!

bad to the bone dude ,awesome job .

Bit fast bit briliant hope your still using it 😊 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😁✌️

Impressive to say the least.

So sick dude!!! Makes me want to cut into my Jon boat!!! Kinda...

awesome job

was there a time you wish it was a fiberglass skiff instead of aluminum?? lol. that thing looks great!!

You sir are a Guinness!

Awesome project man..!!

kick ass build man

That is freaking nice. Bad to the Bone.

Great job.

Skills to pay the bills

Real nice! How little water will she take off in?

You made me sick at first cutting a jet ski like that but then I was like woa

First class Job , your talented to say the least . I was wondering on the choice of Port or Starboard for the helm . I know it's well thought . A chine , I'm sure has crossed your mind . Is it a little slippery ? Nice job . Next ; Rotary Motor ? BMW ? just teasing !

I've been wanting to do the same thing just want to make sure it's rockproof on the bottom but I can't figure out what the best option would be for that soon I have some ideas but trying to figure out which one is exactly the best

Hell of a job man, only thing I can say is you may have over killed it a lil. I'm building one myself, but smaller and less of a budget, good job on yours

I've always wanted to make one of these. Unfortunately, I suck at TIG welding

Awesome job! How long did it take and what did it cost you if I may ask?

Could you put two of the motors for a twin engine jet propulsion in that boat

Nice boat

man that's a bad ass build! I would live to try to build me something similar this winter! Do you have any pointers on things you wish you would have done differently?

very very very cool! thank you!

Thats Awesome !

How long is that front sheet? Did you use .125 to box the backend in to. What type of sealer is that? Looks great

Now thats cool!

Holy shit, good work 👍

Slow this down a bit so we dont get motion sick! Looks like a great build. I think!

Awsomee build

Cool boat What does it weigh? What's it's fuel consumption?

over the past month or so I have been looking and researching jet jons and mini jet boat builds. your build is beyond anything else on youtube for the DIYer. seeing that it has been a few years since this build have you put the boat throw any shallow water and how has the cover fiberglass held up to any hard hits?

pretty frickin awesome, may I ask what you have into it, parts and labor...I'm interested in building something similar...new jetboats are like 30K...Thanks and great video!

Love the build! What size boat did u use? Working on my own build!!
