I want one!! These boats are seriously well designed. I was having a look at this one; a section of the a frame comes off, which you can insert into a hole under a hatch, and acts as an emergency tiller! Apparently this one will do upwards of 50 knots. Nice!

I'm not the biggest fan of jet drives but this one does look impressive.

I really like the samson post on the transom. Hell of a lot easier for most tasks.

Only 10 years to wait and they'll be on the 2nd hand market? Did see a jet pac 22 from an Antarctic survy boat a while back for sale tempting but was expensive.

Saw a neat mod to an outdrice pac 22 the chap had moved the console to on top of the engine cover made a very useful amount of space up front. Went back to BoatsnOutbords but it had gone so could not find a piccy.

Similar to this one? Works very well I think. There was one on ebay last week that a bloke had done the same to, and put seating for 6 up the front.

Precisely, it's now the vapour build of choice for me. The Land Rover is going to be converted to diesel so a diesel jet rib is not a bad idea. Saw the ebay one, makes a big difference on usable space up front.
