There's only ever been a handful of jetboats up the Ram River here in Alberta, not within your requested area however.

I have a different steering all together you guys might be interested in trying, I really like it. You start with the flat/vertical post style steering with the u-joint at the top, then cut and shorten the back triangle brace that holds the top bushing (above the u-joint). You can just lean...

The last one is Turtle lake with sister chutes in the back 100%. They look really good to me,

I only was from drayton to braz once so I am no help there. Rocky to Braz confluence is about 75km takes me about 2.5hr to get there going downstream, fishing is way better below rocky, pretty mellow run, river is slower so upstream travel takes close to the same time. Rocky to Saunders is...

I launched at home, downstream of saunders 45min, water level was good.

Got out for the first trip on Saturday, beautiful day, sunburns all around.

You bet! was a fun day, had a oil leak on day 2 that got my machine full of oil and couldn't get my belt to quit slipping.

Now that's a good lookin sled on the thumbnail of that one!

Weather was terrific Friday and Saturday! Snow was pretty good too, just low overall, some of the chutes where pretty tight, some rocks and trees showing in them that I've never seen in March.

I never got him out in 2020/1, however I did in 2021/2 for a few days with my kids so that was great. I will try to get him out later in the spring here this year. I'm headed to Revy for tomorrow morning, first trip for me this year.

well those buggers copied my retro SRX!

Hows the snow?

I bet he thought that's how you adjust belt deflection

A canoe with an outboard mounted off the side works really well for utility type use.

I went up the NSR, I live on the NSR not far downstream, so I launch at home. The north fork road bridge is only a km or less up from the confluence of the ram and NSR anyway. Ya I've seen my fair few damaged boats from the ram, hopefully nobody got hurt. I used to go a couple times a year up...

Finally got up the Ram for a little fishing yesterday. Been a while since I went up there.

Are you going to retro fit that into an existing sportjet boat? If you are I think your on a profitable business adventure, if you can make it affordable, and with the cost of new boats that's pretty easy

Ya, I know, I have no way to balance or anything afterwards but I am careful with what I'm doing. Haven't caused any damage yet, in 16yrs. I know what you mean about sharp vs smooth, mostly need no dings and it will work fine. I'll get ahold of you next time I need one done, I usually use...

FYI, I have a 6.2 DI with a 212. with a freshly rebuilt or new 3.4 I get 4050rpm WOT and it will not spin out on a WOT launch, however you pickup gravel once or twice and that impeller will spin out on a WOT launch until you take it out and at least sharpen the leading edge again. My...

In west central alberta you can run the north saskatchewan, brazeau, clearwater, red deer, ram(kind of)...... I think thats about it. I've done all of those with my 6.2DI/212 in a firefish hammerhead 19'6" x 7'wide
