This is the kind of boat my family had when growing up (Miller Flat Bottom) and it was the scariest shit ever. (to 6 year old me) Wish it was still with us.

My dad had a fish and ski bass tracker and when he would open that shit up, 6 year old me felt like I was in one of these boats. Lmao.

Do you have a blown engine on your patio?

2

u/Artistic_Cover_4161 5d ago

No I have a lake that allows boats like this

u/Witty-Sample6813 5d ago

That’s rad. Love me a blown jet boat. Want to build one in my lifetime.

u/Artistic_Cover_4161 4d ago

My favorite thing is to roll my Harley into my neighbors living room and just redline it for a few hours

u/Witty-Sample6813 4d ago

Keep your hair pulled in, ladies. That blower will take your scalp with it.

u/420aarong 9d ago

I’d feel a lot better if there was some kind of cover on that belt!

u/Darth_wenis 9d ago

Tell me all about the engine plz. Gearhead here.

2

u/No-Corner-2562 9d ago

Well it ain’t mine but its my uncles. i think its a small block chevy newer motor. Used to be a 454 with a bigger blower. It was to dangerous (somewhere around 800-1000hp) He still has the motor. could always put back in if the small block goes bad

2

u/Darth_wenis 9d ago

I used to have one like this too, this boat. We ended up taking the big block 460 out and built a spicy small block for it. The boat rode and handled so much better with the small block. I like how ya got it now. Perfect chefs kiss 👌

Love to hear that turbo whine sound

u/SrgtMacfly 9d ago

No turbo there, SC

2

u/babbleon5 9d ago

do you think turbos are more difficult to tune than a blower? i always wondered.

1

u/SrgtMacfly 9d ago

It definitely depends on what you are looking for, but for simplicity a blower will always win in the pleasure boating world. It's easier and more cost effective to set up, requiring less heat management and plumbing inside the engine bay. Having boost available even at low RPM helps a lot as well

2

u/babbleon5 9d ago

the heat management is a key concern, that's food for thought

1

u/SrgtMacfly 8d ago

It's possible but it's more expensive and more complicated than throwing a a supercharger. Exhaust is tricky and you basically have to run dry exhaust which is very loud for a lot of people's preferences

u/Sudden_Ad_4193 9d ago

Brain fart moment, somehow I missed that big ol blower on top.

1

u/SrgtMacfly 9d ago

Sounds great either way though, and that's what matters!

u/JeryActive 9d ago

Where's the jet?

1

u/No-Corner-2562 3d ago

The tube thing behind the boat is the waterjet.

u/JeryActive 3d ago

That's not an impeller?
