I just got an old Duckworth jet boat. Curious if there are any other inboard jet boat guys on here?

I looked at jets, but ended up going outboard. More practical for my intended use.

Nowhere in your incoherent rambling did you come close to what can be considered a rational thought. Everyone is now dumber having heard it. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

Does anybody have a recommendation for a good marine mechanic for a Ford 351 Windsor?

Check with Northwest Speed and Marine. They have been good to me.

Definition of Jet Boat....... It jets through the fuel faster than you want to pay for it!

That would be any boat with a decent motor.
