[QUOTE="smokindave, post: 238475, member: 7128"] So both of my jet boats are Canadian built form California Marine in Richmond BC. They called them “Catalina”and they were a lightweight hull. Back in the day they were a competitive boat design. The blue one has the small block and the yellow has the ls6.[ATTACH type="full" alt="33A8CB34-35C8-42D3-9097-06DAF06C85AE.jpeg"]78614[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="BE1EB1A8-30F5-479F-A0E2-1D4C654E02C0.jpeg"]78615[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="A8926EB5-2FC5-4AEF-A4FE-E1B74407FA8D.jpeg"]78616[/ATTACH]trailer before rebuild,two men can lift the yellow hull it can’t be over 300lbs as a bare hull.

I’m hoping to find 9 more mph out of her. Hoping that I can take it to BC to race this year but am thinking COVID will kill the races again this year. The blue boat will be up for sale come spring time. [/QUOTE]
