Cool project. I built mine with a 16' Dura Craft, and a 1000 cc engine from a Tigershark.
A lot of the jet ski johnboat conversions I've seen, people cut the fiberglass hull out of the ski, and mount it in the boat.
For my project, I built my own motor mount system, and then used a bolt-in pump from a 98' Yamaha XL1200W...as this is one of the few that the scoop is a bolt-in aluminum scoop, and not molded into the fiberglass hull.
I am right now in the process of building one will be posting vids soon, 10ft. jon boat, seadoo rotax 587, jetted dual carbs, and aftermarket high performance exhaust. Should do about 50 mph or so.
He should have a friend with a couple of oars pretend to row.
