    River rocket

    I can't wait to get the boat lol. There are getting to be a lot of river rockets down here. A lot of the big lake tournament fisherman are switching to the river and getting inboard jets. I will post some pics when I get it. Thanks for all the info from everyone.

    River rocket

    Yeah that is true. I like the uhmw and the ability to design ur boat exactly the way that you want it. I paid 20k for my first outboard jet so I didn't blink an eye throwing an extra 10k toward a rockproof boat. When you get some pics of the boat your building with Brent I'd like to see it...

    River rocket

    Yeah I have been told by several people that the cavitation is eliminated unless the boat is out of the water. Can't wait to catch a few smallies out of the river rocket. That river jet is awesome that video was super sick. I know the craftsman ship on the Rockproof boats I have saw is second to...

    River rocket

    I Hope this boat does last me a very very long time. The OB jet I had was good but not exactly what I was looking for. After I went in the river rocket I was done, knew I had to have one. Do you have to sharpen and shim the impeller like you would on a outboard jet? What about cavitation ? I...

The area I live in has super rocky rivers and yes they are more than navigable but your just gonna hit and there is nothing you can do about it. I plan to use the rocket just like I used the Lowe but hopefully I can avoid some of...

    River rocket

    Yeah I think the 101 Fortrex was definitely the right way to go. I had a 2010 Lowe 1760 cj with 115 optimax jet and I put a Fortrex 80 lbs thrust on it and was not fully satisfied with it. The Fortrex was a great trolling motor but it didn't have the extra power that I wanted and the Lowe is a...

    River rocket

    Well I made the big step and sold my outboard jet. Also about two weeks ago I ordered a rockproof river rocket. I was just curious if any one else currently has one or would care to inform me of any extras they had put on there boat during the build. I love it and don't even have it yet.
