Thought HydroMite around 1960 made the Model T of Jet Ski's/Mini Hydroplane's with an external pump(prop in a venturi) hanging down amidships and a rudder under the stern. They were between 5 to 7 feet long and weighed around 40 or so pounds. They weren't as fast but sipped fuel and maintained control when you lost power since they had a rudder. You couldn't run them over a sand bar or up the ramp though with skeg and venturie along with the non-kickup rudder hanging underneath them. Best!

Another awesome and informative vlog. Kinda of a unrelated question Does anyone remember a company out of Havasu called RPOT. They were around late 90s early 00s. They specialized in carbon fiber ski parts.

@jetskijim007 11 ай бұрын

Yes, Rick Pot, Great guy. He made some killer parts. I use to have a Waveblaster that had a bunch of his parts on it. It handled amazing! After the turn of the century, he was making Custom pool cues, all billet aluminum with amazing designs machined into them. They were incredible pieces of art. Talented guy.

The Jet Intake is Super Important 👌 What l am surprised about with Jet Ski's , is that they are all Axial Flow Units. I am really Surprised that no manufacturer has taken a Decent Look at a Mixed Flow Jet Unit like a Dominantor , Berkeley ect & down sized them 4 a Jet Ski or smaller jet boat . They have a higher top speed & if using a pre impeller, virtually no cavitation at all . May require more HP .. not entirely sure ???? Ur thoughts ??? Thx 😅

Have you heard of gator glide? It's a product that aluminum flat boats are using to protect the bottom of their hulls. Now I've seen jet ski guys doing it on their hulls. Your thoughts?

@jetskijim007 Ай бұрын

I've watched as folks have tried everything on the bottom of the hulls. Everything always affected handling in some odd way or another. Nothing "protects" fiberglass. If you are running your ski on the rocks, the fiberglass will flex/work/damage, no brush on coating is going to stop that. I have actually seen guys armor their bottoms with aluminum or stainless sheet. Wrecks the handling, but it does pretty much make them bullet proof. :-)

Hi Jim, great video. I purchased a Jet Dynamics intake grate for my SC, and wanted to add a stuffer as well. I saw that you modified the grate and cut the center support on the Jet Dynamics grate to match the new angle on your ski's intake. I was planning to do the same, but read on the pro water craft website that there will be a performance issue if you pair a top loader grate with a stuffer. So now I'm wondering if I just run the Jet Dynamics grate without a stuffer, or if I should explore other grate options and add the stuffer. Any thoughts?

@jetskijim007 3 ай бұрын

Well, no, pro watercraft doesn't recommend running a scoop grate because they cant give you dimensions or direction modifying the scoop grate. Liability and all. The problem is the scoop grate is made at the angle of the stock intake tract. When you modify the angle, the scoop is no longer parallel, it creates a wedge, which causes issues at higher speeds. If you modify the scoop to maintain parallel, the ski absolutely hooks up and goes!

@H20ONFIRE 3 ай бұрын

Looks like you plan to use those top loader/JD intake grates....Chris's website dosnt recommend using "top loaders". Courios if you stayed with that style intake grate, an did ski slo down? Not sure to spend 100$ plus, to lose speed. {I currently run JD grates also}.

@donalhoward2962 2 ай бұрын

What style intake grate works best with the pump stuffer on an x2?

@jetskijim007 Ай бұрын

I would think a shallower one since you are changing the angle. Intake grate scoops are supposed to be parallel to the intake tract. I would try a worx.

@KRM02 9 ай бұрын

Jim , Sorry last question I have for ya does anyone make the entire water intake where the prop sits and the stuffer sits ?? I'm looking for one for a special build I'm working on , trying to turn my small flat bottom into a swamp/river boat and I don't need lots of speed just need it to plane out and get from point out to point be. If ya know where I can pick one up let me know please if not I'll have to buy all the other parts and make a metal intake not sure what ya call that area on bottom of hull so I'm calling it the intake . Thanks Kyle

I sure don't. Most of the time those are fabricated for the application.
