  • In Episode 201 of Mike Finnegan's Garage we once again have the honor of hosting automotive legends Pete Harrel and Kevin Smith, in the garage. The guys are here not only to continue tuning my wife's 21ft Eliminator Daytona but also to see if Game Over will once again roar to life after being in pieces for the last 12 months. Do me a favor and go follow both of their channels, Real Good at Doin Stuff and KSR Performance and Fabrication here on CZcams.

    It don’t bother me seeing a hopped up boat go by when I’m fishing a tournament. I don’t care too much for them wake boats, when they’re kinda close. I’d rather some one go by on plane when I’m fishing then half throttle creating a big wake. Plus it sounds better.

    • @aSinisterKiid
      @aSinisterKiid Před rokem +7

      Yeah the thing about the jet boats is usually they sound awesome with their big ass engines and almost all guys can respect a good sounding engine. I wouldn't mind seeing one either if I was out in a tournament because I've always dreamed of owning a jet boat, so I admire any guy who actually can afford one.

    • @Drummin003
      @Drummin003 Před rokem

      Most of those wakeboard/wakesurf boat owners are assholes on the water. They get way too close going by you if you're anchored rocking the boat way more than necessary, and some of them will do a loop around you where all of the waves meet right where you are anchored. I have no remorse for any of those sacks of shit if I seem them having boat/engine problems or sinking. You spent $200,000+ on that boat (e.g. WakeSetter, MasterCraft X Seires, Super AirNatique, Paragon, etc.) you can afford to fix it if something goes wrong.

  • @robertscottdunn
    @robertscottdunn Před rokem

    I really enjoy the jetboat content. I've watched your video and Kevin's video of this and it a lot of fun feeling like I was tagging along. It all brings back memories from when I was younger. We didn't have near as much power but it was still fun. I had a friend who ordered a Taylor SS jetboat with a 454, thru-transom exhaust and adjustable trim. It was yellow with metallic blue stripes to match the Suzuki RM MX bikes that he raced. I thought that boat was a monster and it topped out just over 60, maybe 63. Being a dirt bike guy he was very familiar with porting cylinder heads so he took the pump apart and polished all the sand casting marks off the inside of the housing and polished up the impeller vanes. It took forever. It also didn't make a bit of difference on the performance of the boat. That was disappointing but the boat was glorious nonetheless.

    So great that You take the time to Show all of Us recliner mechanics,
    How the Big Boys do it!
    Such a Pleasure watching You guys work!
    Question, Since I first happened to See a Video by You, (riding in Finnegan's 700 HP Jet boat) or something, 1200 HP, whatever it was, I've been checking in with You Guy's, Often..
    So, noticing that It's always a Jet boat...
    I grew up, learning to Ski behind Grandad's little run about, He bought it for Us Kids, so He n Nana, could take the Cabin Cruiser and go fishing..
    Anyway, eventually, n this is proof My Parents were cooler than Me, My Parents bought a Flat Bottom from the Guy across the street, little 16 ft. Schiada With a 327 small block Chevy, V drive, with a Crash box...
    Still to this day fastest Boat I've ever been in, it could pull 5 skiers out of the water like nothing!
    Now I know, what I'm talking about is nothing compared to the Technology of Motor, plus, even Hull design of the Tunnel hull, pickle fork, I'm guessing tunnel, beautiful boats, by the way..
    Question is, Why don't You run, or better yet,
    What do You think about running a v drive?

    I've never seen red-ish smoke come out of an exhaust before and I was confused as to what that could possibly be when Game Over took off. Then I realized it was the rust from the inside of the exhaust from sitting so long without being used. Wifey's boat was making Game Over jealous hahahaha.

It hit the block so squarely that it didn't pulverize it, just pushed it out. We were going to repair it and our boss said no. He made a plaque and hung it above the impact saying "THIS IS WHAT LACK OF SAFETY DOES TO A BLOCK WALL. WHAT WOULD IT HAVE DONE TO YOU?" and every new employee signs the wall next to it.

      I think the hundred mile an hour club is when you do a measured mile each way back to back and achieve 100 mph or over.

      @@jimc4731 If you go over 100mph in boat, even for a second, then your officially part of the club! (: There is no need to go back to back runs unless your at a shootout going for a record.

    Game over is good to see Finnegan drive. I'd love to have wifey's boat. It can be manic fast and it can be a GT.

    When you said you were going to lower the water inlet, I was thinking 1-2". Never in my wildest dreams did I think .030" would make a big difference on a boat. Crazy!
