True, True.
Jet boats are slow, unsafe, and are out there for boys not men that drive prop boats.

Funny you should mention that as some of us were talking about that same subject at a Mi.Hot boat Assn. meet last month. Except, we were talking about the Vdrives. There are only a handful left to be seen around Mi. as most have wisened up by now. While other guys were boating, the few vdrive guys left were on the shore talking about how fast they COULD be if the water was flat which it NEVER is on any weekend. We watched as one guy sat on the front of his blown/injected flatbottom and paddled his boat out of the cove to open water. Then commenced to get POUNDED by the average waves you get where we boat. A group of us watched and just shook our head. In 5 minutes he was back in the cove, sitting on the front of his boat and paddling it back to shore, so he could resume talking about how fast he COULD be.
So lets tally up the vdrive pros and cons,
Pro's
Fast in dead flat water if setup properly
??
??
Look cool while parked on the beach
Con's
Most have no reverse
Most have to be started in gear or the gearbox will blow up
The roughest ride possible
Hardware hanging under boat is always searching to find the nearest rock or stump.
Can't travel in a no wake zone.
Once someone has bought a vdrive and found out all the negatives then they find that they can't sell it as most other people don't want one.
I would say that the Vdrivers are the champions of the bench racing forum. When you can't use your boat, You can always sit on the shore and TALK about how fast it COULD be.
This was fun.
JET????? SUCK & BLOW threw the water.
V-drive ?? SCREW your way threw the water.
