Its a Brian Clement Jet boat from Jet Man industries . i Bought it off i Bob in Stoney Plain , ive had it for almost two years now , finally getting around to doing some of the stuff i need to do. It has a 383 chev, and the boat works great. I tried to put some pics of the whole boat that, but they are to big , ill try to get some others later .

Yea mine says on the gauge cluster built by Jet Man industries on a platic letter plate, yea it has a Berkely 12JC-A pump. The previous owner had kept it in great shape and had some mods done to it as well. Teflon bottom etc.. i have seen one of the steel hull / aluminum bottoms up here in McMurray im pretty sure. It has a mass amount of rivets attaching the side sections to the bottom.?

I used spray foam on the floor in between the stringers and on the sides of the hull i built my motor cover out of checker plate used a piano hinge to attach it rests on 1 inch aluminum angle with weather striping on the angle to deaden some of the sound up front i used a chunk of 1/4 plywood with spray foam applied to the back of it and spray on box liner on the frount of the wood you could frame in the bench seat with angle and make the seat out of ply wood and get it apolsterd to match the rest of the boat put your new gas tank under the seat frame and plumb your filler cap to the top of the checker plate

Yea , i dropped off some plans today at the metal shop in town here to get some things cut , and to get a bunch of stuff bent up. A friend of mine has a older marathon , i im going to mimic what he has. Just a fixed back and then a riser all around the engine compartment. Then i can re use the cushions that i already have and just have them removeable. Just went for the simplest thing i could think of , still not sure what i will insulate/ sound deaden it with. Ill figure that out when its all framed up and welded in place. Now i just have to wait untill all the pieces are made up. Then i will be busy!
