Was behind this guy on the way home the other day. Stickers on the side said something about BowFishing on it.

Looks like a flat bottom aluminum hull. Had some platforms on the front. Looked like the BRP reverse gates on there. Definitely NOT a Yamaha drive.

Wish I had better pictures:

Looks like the Mercury Jet Drives (Based on color and shape of sticker on gate) plus shape of engine on boat. Wild guess, but I think that's what it is. These were used 2001+ on SeaDoo jetboats until the 4tecs were ready, (and when the 2 strokes could not be used anymore. BRP filled the gap with Mercury.)

Yup, Mercury SportJet. Great pump and the powerheads in 240efi and 250 optimax performed well. Those custom weld boats like that are shallow runners. The area up front is designed for bow fishing. They usually have huge lights all the way around the boat to spot rough fish in the shallows.
