Went to Gold Beach, OR last week and ran the Rogue with a few
others.
A few pics. Not my pictures. My boat is 6 from the front, but can
not really see it.

Looks like fun Bill.
Do these boats use jet drives?


Yup. Mine is a Kodiak 3 stage. Lots use the Hamilton 212. Newer
version. Mine is a licensed copy of a Hamilton 773. And diesels use
mostly Hamilton 243's. With a few American Turbine pumps. Like a
Berkeley pump. Boats are mostly 3/16" aluminum, with some 1/4" on the
larger boats and a few of the small boats are 1/4 and 1/2" with UHMW
plastic on the bottom for boating really shallow rivers.


Too cool.


One guy on the run had an 18' firefish.

My boat was built by this guy at a former company.

Thanks for the links Bill.


A link to the run. Should not have showed it to the wife. Suggest you
download before watching as is about 500 mb.
