Why not act a little grown up and run at 3/4 throttle for most of your ride.
Save's fuel, wear and tear on the engines drives and you. The people around
you may also like you a little more.

I have a seadoo 1800 jet boat it has 2, 85 HP Rotax 2 stroke motors in
it and runs about 45 Mph
only problem is it uses so much fuel you can drain the 150 lt tank in
2 hours at WOT.
I would love to replace thes 2 strokes with 4 strokes I was thinking
of BMW K1200 motors.
I think they would fit the only problem I see is a cooling system
because I use it in salt water.
also the K1200 is rated at around 150 HP so the extra speed would be
nice.

Does anyone have any ideas of has anyone tried this sort of thing ?

I did not see anything there in his post that would suggest he has
problems with others. What's your point? You don't like fast boats? We
get that. Do what I do, I go to places where there are speed limits,
that's all. Sharing resources is a big part of boating, if you were
nicer to folks, maybe someone would take you on a fast boat too.

Maybe a fuel flow meter would help you decide how hard you want to
push your engines. Most engines have an enrichment circuit that comes
on at full throttle backing off even a bit can save a lot of gas.

Thank you for your small minded response!

I have owned several fast boats, 80+mph boats. I was a marine mechanic for
more years than I care to explain and have run most every kind of boat from
grossly overpowered 18 footers to twin engine floating hotels. It is common
knowledge the jet boat and jet ski community carry negative appeal with
other boaters. Many jurisdictions are imposing greater operating restriction
on theses vessels. These negatives have been brought on by the operators of
theses vessels. I won't go into it any further!

You ranted on a guy asking a question. You threw a couple of lame
insults. It was uncalled for, period. I won't go into it any
further ,,|,,

I do believe it was only you who found insult. I quote the direct email
response I received from the original poster:

That's exactly what I do I could not afford to run WOT but she still
likes to drink.

He responds with no resentment and in fact agrees with what I have said. So
take off your internet police cap and return to your lurking position!
