AWSOME boat I have allways been afan off the Jenks boats and it looks like you have done a great job of fixing her up.Never forget coming home in a 22' lancer one day 25knot sea breeze behind us we seen it coming up behind us we were doing 20 knots and dropping into the troughs.the Jenks powered by looked unreal Good luck with the boat and the fishing
Hey guys cheers, I've recently re-powered it with a 5ltr mpi mercruiser which puts out 260 at the prop, I'm running a bravo 3 drive with two stainless props, gives me just shy of 42 knots lightly loaded, 39 fully loaded which is enough given current fuel prices, I always heard that the jenks hulls were good in the rough and I now definitely agree. What also was a big supprise was how dry it is given the lack of flare in the bow. She's and old girl with a revamp but I rekon she's great

Dont see too many Jenks Craft around these days. What power are you running?
Does anyone know where the love of god goes, when the waves turn the minutes to hours?

Nice
Top job on the boat. Looks like fun times ahead for you.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.
