Dual jets on a caliber 1 Boat????

[BIGRED9158]

What is the point of this I have heard of it but never seen one

 

[ultra26shadow]

It only worked on a trident baddest mofo on the lake

 

[RiverDave]

They built a few boats with them, but they hit a wall around 70 mph and it didn’t seem to matter how much hp you throw at them they wouldn’t go any faster.

There is a guy that ski raced a dual jet with big power. Think he also has a bigger boat that he also ran in Catalina race. Had a transfer case that split the drives

Any more pics of the Catalina ski race boat

I have enjoyed this boat 32 years.23’ Sleekcraft Indamar 454 Twin Panther.Bruce nailed it when he built it.Gas means nothing i have enjoyed this boat.My family will have to sell it someday.

 

[fmo24]

@Tommy Gun Images May have some

There is a dual pump boat on the lower river called two pump chump. Nice boat but can’t remember the manufacture.
I believe it has a blown 572.

I have a picture on the 10 heading toward havasu of this boat. I should find it for you

Dual Jet?

Seems like a cool idea, when one squirter does not get it done add another. :champagne: Whats the consensus on dual jet boats like the one for sale in AZ? http://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/boa/3188434800.html Is the dual more efficient? Better hole shot? Better top end?

Pic of the drives please

 

[AZLineman]

I tried to buy a 24 Schiada with dual jets

 

[Luvnlife]

Why? It’s simple math. You go twice as fast. One jet drive = 100 mph, two jet drive = 200mph[emoji23]

 

[MooreMoney]

I found the picture from 2015. It was similar but its a dual V-Drive not a jet.

Thanks for looking.For some reason i have no internet pics of the Panthers on my boat.Will keep looking.Boat hasbeen in garage for 5 + years personal reasons.But,this could be the winter that changes.Incredible meds these days.

 

[RVR SWPR]

Like said,imo Bruce nailed the install of the Panthers.I installed tabs,but really did’nt need.Like the hardware.

 

[farmo83]

There was an old taylor that had I believe 2 454 and 2 jets. How he got all of that to fit I have no idea. It was out of Oklahoma I believe.

 

[MooreMoney]

I thought it had two props under there. I could be wrong.

Years ago Herald Bruce of R&D Marine in Havasu ran Blown fool jet with dual jets for a while. While it wasn't as successful as he'd of liked I'm pretty sure it ran over 70mph.......but don't quote me on that.

 

[MK1MOD0]

This!

that’s the one I was speaking of. It’s on the lower river

[Blackmagic94]

Hmmm twin dominators on the cig lol

Run 5 jets. It could be the new west coast fad. 450r's ..... eat your heart out

 

[Carlson-jet]

Rarely does a jet drive leave one stranded. How many of the various drives just explode??
Why do people like to bag on the ditch pump?
People who hate them remind me of Antifa Dorks.

 

[MK1MOD0]

Nothing wrong with a jet at all. Seen some bad ass jet boats out there.

 

[jetboatperformance]

Those Panther boats work ten times better with our Panther mixed flow conversion , building a pair for one of the Sleek twins

Roger Weiman and my brother did the mold for Harold in Parker at my brothers shop they did not make the first boat just the mold if I remember it had a porpoise problem

Don't follow me, you won't make it.

It's happened many times.

I picked up 6 mph with zero changes to the engine with your conversion. Once it cools down I’m going to test it with the blower and we can figure out which impeller you want to change it too

What rpm and speed? and Impeller cut?

Dan'l

 

[Blackmagic94]

Went from 60 to 65.6. I think it’s a AA. Tom will remember. It’s a temp wheel till we know which one I need for the new blower combo.

Rpm with panther was 5100. Rpm with toms went to 4800 and faster.

 

[Blackmagic94]

Saw this today in marana. Kinda fucking cool
