I work at a marina that was recently bought by a new owner.WE have been cleaning out the years of acumulated junk by the previous owner and opened up A building they Quit using in the mid 90s.Its packed with stuff the boss wants thrown out.Well heres my point..among a bunch of jet skis is a lay down type of jet boat About 10' long set up to run a snowmobile engine(mid 70s).the name on the side is aquajet.there is also a jet ski called a wet jet.Any clue or info?

Wetjet was only made for a few years in the 90's. Not very popular, but there are still quite a few around. As far as the Aquajet I have no clue.

aquajet is still in business today, you may want to look into holding to the aquajet unit as a novelty if nothing else as long as you have the storage for it.

The wetjets I believe were made in the late 80's.

thanks guys!!I found today 2 surf jets.they look like a surf board with a motor?!in nice shape.looks like my garage is going to be full next to my Baja.

The surfjets are worth some money. Get them running and put them on ebay. $$$ towards a new sled.

I brought the wet jet home last night.Its a 1990 that has been in the barn since 1996.cleaned the carb and put in a new battery.she fired right up!!This moddle has a Brute engine in it.I wonder if its the same as the old Brutanza from the snowmobiles?

Nice find. Is the Wet Jet the style with the butterfly steering wheel? Try to google Certified Parts Corp. They used to have Surf Jet parts and maybe Wet Jet also. I know they had Wet Bike parts since I owned a pair of them a few years ago.

Yes the wet jet has a butterfly steering.I have had the wet jet running.There is \nothing wrong with it other than cleaning the carb.
