Re: Looking for a Jetovator

Not only do I not know where one is, I have never heard of such a thing. Sounds like something you tell someone after telling them to check the blinker fuild or muffler bearings. ;) :D

Assuming it is a berkley jet drive your going to have to seek out a used one one ebay or craigs list and just wait


They show up used a lot if you google (berkley jet drive jetavator)

Ayuh,...

Jetboat topics are Few,+ Far between here at iboats.....

A Google search should bring up alot of good Jetboating forums,....
Hotboats,... Banderlog,... I'm sure there's more....

Jetovator,.. That's another brand of Place Diverter isn't it,..?? Berkley's own maybe,..??

Re: Looking for a Jetovator

Googled to death, have watched ebay for a year, searched Craigs list, and beat the neighborhoods.
Yes place diverters are readily available from a couple different companies, but I want a Jetovator, used. New ones are available from Berkeley, but I can buy another jet boat for what they want for one.
Maybe someone has an old jet boat in the back yard that needs to go (?).

I hear ya!
It's pretty much west from here though.
Plus we're still hot and humid here.
The past two years, I've gone pheasant hunting on Veteran's Day in November in a t-shirt!

Not to rub it in or anything,
but boating season starts in March and runs through November typically.
Last Xmas, although cold, I wish I had the boat still in just to take a little put to see the decorations via water.

Re: Looking for a Jetovator

I got seven dead mature oak trees 15-25 feet from my house - oak wilt disease. Nowhere to drop 'em either (wires, deck, sidewalk, landscaping, etc.).
The grinch ain't got nothing on oak limbs bouncing off my roof.

But, two boats will be out of drydock tomorrow and the fuel tanks are full.
It's amazing what you don't think about when you;re on the water.
