[QUOTE="Boz Mon, post: 399945, member: 20233"] So I'm thinking about building a jet Jon this winter and I have a few questions. My buddy has a bunch of empty Kawasaki jet ski hulls that he wants to get rid of so I'm gonna snag one of those. I'm thinking a 144 pump with a 750 engine would be my motor of choice. I would like to do an 1100 but that's too much money. Do you guys think this would be a good setup? I haven't found a jon not yet. I was also wondering about cavitation. I've been reading a fair bit and it seems that the pump just needs to be set about an inch or 2 below the bottom of the hull to avoid this. Any other tips or info? [/QUOTE]
