BoatBuilds.net: German Lakeboat Jet Boat by Batzen

[Jon]

Some of the boat build sites are broad, and feature a wide variety of boat builds. Then there are sites like VintageJetBoats.com.

This 1960-1970 Hellwig Panther 16' is a classic German jet boat. The owner undertook a grueling 4-year restoration on this beautiful boat, which is now BMW M60 V8-powered.

There's a great comment deep in this thread, as the builder finally hits the milestone of starting the engine. 78_Tahiti says: "On long term projects like these, I have found that, once you can start the engine, your commitment to completion will be renewed!"
