Default 20' Jetboat W/350 Indmar - How to make more power?

You need to decide what performance parameters need improvement, as the
Vortec motor starts off pretty good right out of the box. (top speed, hole
shot, acceleration, etc...) Note that any modification may reduce
reliability, or decrease service intervals. Any changes will affect
something else. Contact a reputable engine builder for their suggestions
as well, but I'd look at breathing first. Exhaust, Intake, and Valve Train.

Hello,
I have a new "Famly Jetboat" that has a legend jet drive and an Indmar
350
Vortec Carbeurated engine.
I love the boat, it works great, but wondered if there are any known
mods
that will assist in performance.
