Twin Turbo Hemi Jet Boat Lake Test #2! Finnegan's Garage Ep.94

These are strange times we are living in. The novel Coronavirus, also known as Covid-19, has changed the way we all interact on a daily basis. Like most of you, I've been isolated at home with my family. My job, hosting the video show, Roadkill, is in limbo. I have no idea if or when the show will resume filming new episodes. My new job is working with my wife to home-school our young children and keep them safe, happy, healthy and fed. So far things have not been all that tough. We still have food to eat and we are all happy to do our part to stop the spread of the virus. A week has gone by since the world was put on notice that things had to change. Today is the first day I felt compelled to upload a new video to my YouTube channel, which I admit has been a nice distraction. I plan to upload videos more frequently from here on out and since I'm in no position to lecture or give advice on anything beyond having fun with cars, trucks and boats, that's what I'll continue to do.
We are fortunate to live next to a beautiful lake called Allatoona in Northwest Georgia. This video is about lake-testing my 711ci Hemi-powered jet boat. It's actually only the second time I've ever driven the boat. It took over six years to build it from a bare hull into what you see here. The first time I drove the boat I just idled it around a marina to see if it floated and wouldn't sink. In this video I give it just enough throttle to begin tuning it and simply cruised it around the lake with my kids aboard (one at a time) and my friend David Newbern also taking a turn behind the wheel.
Don't worry, the kids had life vests on while they were aboard and we never went faster than 30 mph.
I'll have another video update this week. I'm still working on the jet boat and my 1967 C10 truck. Currently I'm building a custom pair of stainless steel headers and modifying the fuel cell and have some really cool tips, tricks and tools to show you that will help you build your own headers. Stay safe and thanks for watching!

For those of you that wanted to order merchandise I must apologize because I cannot ship anything new to you. Until everyone is able to return to work I've shut down the payment function on my website FSMGARAGE.COM.
