    Anyone here own a Jet boat?

    I am considering a new boat. A bass type boat would be great, but I do more river fishing and camping than I spend time on a lake. So I was thinking a boat made for running shallow rivers would suit my needs better. Anyone here have any experience or advice for me… Oh and when you reply...
