    Jet drive ride through Dayton

    This video was from last weekend when I put in at the Moraine ramp and ran up to the next dam by Triangle Park. This video is of me running through most of the trouble spots in my jet drive.

    I don't see many fishing that area. Only a few kayak fishing and a couple bank fishing. It is still a funny feeling running a boat through downtown Dayton.

    It is beat up, but it is still doing ok. The transom still looks good and is holding up to the motor being mounted so high. I have put a couple holes in the hull and had them welded. I will say I have put it to the test, but it is a jet drive. You buy it knowing you are going to hit rocks at some point running shallow water. I really want to update to a Legend, Alweld, Blazer, or one of the other specific jet hull boats.

    Talked to the Ranger there a few years ago(WC boat ramp). He had an aluminum patrol boat with a kevlar shielded bottom. Said it goes anywhere. Didnt catch the brand.
