    Any Wooldridge outboard jet owners on the forum ?

    Are there any Wooldridge outboard jet owners on the forum ?
    I just brought a 2005 Wooldridge Alaskan 18' with an Evinrude 130 outboard jet and just want a bit of advice, tips and tricks etc from those in the know.
    Regards

    Doh, that should have read "I know nothing about them."

    I know f all about them either but I have heard.

    you need a bit more horsepower outboard than the equivalent proped outboard.
    and you have the foot set so the leading edge is just underwater on the plane, to high =cavitation to low= poor top end much like a normal O/B
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.
