    I think that's the first time I've ever seen mufflers on a jet boat. How long did they last before they broke off?

    You lucked out Tahiti built a good many with Jacuzzi pumps. I've never seen one with a Berkely. The white pumps are the only way to ever get any speed without spending a ton of cash. If you wanna run much over 70 you will need to do a little magic to the Berkely also.

      My brothers and I all run renegade ultra lights with Berkeley pumps. Honestly those pumps are the only way to go.

    • @Sonny_McMacsson
      @Sonny_McMacsson Před 2 lety

      The impeller cut needs to be matched to the engine. 3450 rpm is like 135 hp. 2900 rpm is about 75. Assuming Berkeley 'A' cut impeller. Getting 60 from 75hp? Pretty impressive if so but I'm skeptical.
