Happy 5th Anniversary to Jetboaters.net!

We've come a long way in the last 5 years! Thank you to all the staff and members that make this place a fun and informative place on the internet!

The last year has brought us:
  • 13,873 members! We have thousands more non-members that come to the site for information but don't join (that's ok). As you can see from active member statistics, usage continues to climb year over year.
  • 1550507638825.png
  • We are holding regular staff meetings now.
  • Gatherings continue to flourish - this last year included Shelbyville, Bimini, NC-Raleigh Area, Charleston, and even some meetings at boat shows.
  • We upgraded the forum to the latest version - which improves how we manage, view and consume all this info! The mobile version looks/works so much better!
  • We keep adding things by request - the lastest being a Motorcycle/ATV forum.
  • We recently had a flourish of new information around the New Yamaha model line up - covered in the 2019 Model Year forum.
Works in Progress:
  • We will likely be changing how the FAQ works as our old add on isn't supported in the new 2.0 forum software.
  • We are looking into becoming an official Non-Profit - and possibly putting in Ads for Non Members only. This would generate some cash for us that we could use for member activities/forum operations costs.

Please keep your suggestions coming as it is our goal to be responsive to your requests (as we can). This site is for you-our members!

Happy Anniversary Everyone!

You can hover over the person's name, or click on it and get that info if interested. The problem with adding it to the sidebar is that it makes each post take up more real estate.

Like the others have said, this site is great. Tons of help getting my boat sorted after buying an sx230 that needed a little love. Great people, great info, cant say thanks enough.
