[QUOTE="Flat_Bottum, post: 381147, member: 16925"] Dont have any photos, but on my jet jons second shake down run I was cruising down the river in a wide area and was coming up to a place where the river made a slight curve to the left and narrowed in to about 1/4 of what it usually is. As I came into the curve, I let off the throttle a little too much and the boat headed toward the right bank. Thought " you need throttle to turn idiot" and laid into the throttle...which shot me like a bullet straight into the bank which to my luck was just a straight up and down bank. Come to find out that my steering heim joint on the jet pump had broke which is why I couldn't turn, thought I needed more throttle to turn but I didn't. Learning to drive a pump is a learning process haha. Luckily nobody was seriously hurt except for my inner thighs where I took out my console. [/QUOTE]
