I literally said 'F yes!!!' and started shaking my fists in the air! I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooo STOKED FOR BOAT CONTENT! Let's GO!!!!!!!!! I hope Jen does her own boat stuff this year too!
Something else to take note of when you take the carburetors apart, pay close attention to the jetting. The jetting on the carburetor for the PTO cylinder is different than the one on the magneto cylinder.
We bought a Sea Doo switch last year, it is so much fun. Just me and the wife, we got the compact sport model with 170 HP. $35,000 brand new with a trailer.
Yamaha wave venture is an excellent machine. That's what I learned to water ski on when I was a much younger guy In 15 years of owning it, we've only replaced batteries and a carb clean once
Hi Chris! It was a big disappointment to see you taking to the water without Jan. Watching her sing is a real treat, and watching her scream might have been the icings on the cake.
I have a 1997 GSX. It's a really fun ski and pretty reliable when dialed in. The 787 is a great engine. Not much storage as it's a 2 seater. The GTX is the 3 seater version of this ski and has a lot more storage. Without the DESS key, though, they aren't worth putting money into as that can be a pretty costly problem to mitigate. This one looked like a bit of a wiring mess. Will likely end up a parts ski.
9:50 EPA gremlins strike again for trying to defy them. Waveventure is pretty high hours if it's original. Needs a genuine mikuni carb kit, new steering cable and vacuum leak check.
Hey Chris, love watching your videos. You are right up my alley on these jet skis. I have had a GSX with that rote 800 they run good I also currently have a wave venture 700 very good engine just cleaned and rebuilt the carburetors on mine waiting to test run. You are most certainly right that is one of the worst things you can do is run when they are not fueling properly. My device would be clean and rebuild the carburetors with genuine rebuild kits do not use the aftermarket ones and do not use aftermarket needle and seats 100% guarantee you if you do that with the right kits, it will run 100% minus the low compression on that cylinder. If you need any pointers, any type of advice or have any questions, any sort would love to talk to you. I don’t know everything about them, but I’m learning. I’m the only guide my area that will work on two strokes. Keep up the good hope to talk to you soon.
Friend of mine bought two junk wave ventures and was going to make one good one out of them. Tore one down completely and put a new piston in it. We had no idea why both of them had failed but he ran mixed gas for the maiden voyage and decided to not check the oiler cause he ran without mixed and the engine blew up again 😂😂.
At one point you said that the Sea-Doo 787 was a pretty good motor… Well it's actually a damn fine motor!!! 😂😂😂 Their 951 performed better (big jump in performance) but always had more issues.
Great video Chris, those would be a joy to have in our New Zealand rivers and estuaries. And ocean too. Glad to be following you and Jen and Gus. The Grand Torino hooked me. Ship it to New Zealand. Better Still , come visit N .Z. (N Z is our equivalent to U.S.A. Have a great Kiwi hello and good tidings to you all. I am an avid follower . Paul ❤
Chris, as a boater who has been boating the Lambertville area upstream as far as Easton for the last 50 years or so, I would recommend that you be careful below the wing dam at Lambertville as there are steel I beams sticking up from the bottom from the flood of 55. The Lambertville- New Hope bridge is laying on the bottom. (What wasn’t salvaged)
Yes definitely have to be careful in that section. Didn't know there were i-beams, but all sorts of other huge boulders and obstacles. I've been through it a bunch of times. Usually when the water is high.
Is there ANYTHING you can't get running you are a engine genius. Besides myself you are the only person I would gladly pay to work on anything I own. You are well beyond my pay grade. 👍👌🍺💯.
"who registers junky jet skis, they should give you a pass before you take them on the water" very true what the point until you know if there worth it. Unfortuneatley the goverment doesn't use a lot of principles that make sense.
Here in Missouri johnboats with outboard motors with jetpumps for a lower unit and johnboats with 4 stroke inboard engines with jet drives are popular on Ozark streams. I bought in 1987 a 16' alumaweld with an Evinrude outboard with a jetpump from a buddy I worked with for 2,500$ with a rolco trailer. I put a minnkota trolling motor on it, installed a marine stereo and removable flooring, the boat is really handy.
Chris you are the pinnacle of UA-cam entertainment. Thanks for all the amazing videos!!!
I literally said 'F yes!!!' and started shaking my fists in the air! I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooo STOKED FOR BOAT CONTENT! Let's GO!!!!!!!!! I hope Jen does her own boat stuff this year too!
I was literally just thinking this.
Heck yeah. Always love learning. I have a seadoo and a boat myself. They both run lol. Most boat stuff on UA-cam......well just isn't as good as NNKH
Jet ski and boat content also quads and old 2stroke stuff is very cool
My face lit up when I saw this video pop up!
dam..yall need a life of your own lol
23:47 Who doesn't love trains? Everybody loves trains! 👍😊 Thanks for the video.
haha excatly!
Your ability to not give a shit is an amazing gift. Enjoy
Thanks for the ride. I had a great time and never got wet
Looking forward to the next adventure.
So glad to see the boat content rolling in. It’s one of my favorite parts of the channel
Man your buddy looks like he’s got the perfect place. A good man too, hands you a beer as you walk up. 🍺🍺
Bubba has been busy with that Seadoo. LOL That wiring is 12 pack of busch light quality.
😂
I got it going left. Good enough to take down a nascar track. That. was hilarious. Chris. keep it up, buddy.
Something else to take note of when you take the carburetors apart, pay close attention to the jetting. The jetting on the carburetor for the PTO cylinder is different than the one on the magneto cylinder.
Chris you should get a jon boat and put on of those ski motors in it. Jet Jon 👀
The amount of stuff you have in parts is awesome. Blown fuse on a Jetski. You got it.
The boats brought me to love NNKH
Reminds me of times work on the boat and going out on the water with Dad
Why am I watching NNKH until 3 am? I’d say Chris makes great videos. Each one is a different, interesting experience.
Im always impressed with the amount of knowledge you have about so many different types of vehicles ...pretty awesome !!!
Chris every since I seen your tundra go under the water . I get nervous when I see you at a boat ramp lol ! Love Your videos !
❤❤ You are amazing in less than 5min you got the fuse fixed and 2 strokes started...)
Your the real
Tom Brady of all time
Taking it on the water and stopping to visit a friend was super hero couragous as well.
Look up jet Johns ... you should build one
Aw man i would have loved to see you do some jet skis getting all fixed up
We bought a Sea Doo switch last year, it is so much fun. Just me and the wife, we got the compact sport model with 170 HP. $35,000 brand new with a trailer.
LOVE THE BOAT/SKI UPDATES - thanks for sharing!
Yamaha wave venture is an excellent machine. That's what I learned to water ski on when I was a much younger guy
In 15 years of owning it, we've only replaced batteries and a carb clean once
Loved that one !. Great ride on the river, jet ski does a good speed despite needing a small amount of tlc..
You can't beat messing about on the water, awesome video as always Chris I've been looking forward to one of your post coming on, thanks dude.
Thanx Chris!! Supposed to get my butt to work !! Meh I work for myself.
I'm up in WI and it has done nothing but rain after the winter ended. It looks beautiful where you're at.
Those blackfin seat covers are pricey when new. Nice addition to the collection Chris
Hi Chris! It was a big disappointment to see you taking to the water without Jan. Watching her sing is a real treat, and watching her scream might have been the icings on the cake.
Absolutely love the places you take us to Chris 👍 spectacular 👊 😊
It's freaking 98 degrees here today, I need some damn jet skis right now lol.
😂
It’s only been in the 50s and low 60s in nj so this video has to be last year lol

You should make a jet john! My buddy is bulding one. Cheap aluminum boat plus a jetsji motor and drive
This is crazy this I buy a jet ski this morning then u post a video with 2🤣🤣🤘😎🤘
ohhhh yeah a jet boat, id like to see you get one and try it out up the Delaware river.
i love that your right across the river from me its awesome
Dude I wanted you to do a fixing jet skis video and you delivered
That was cool riding through those back channels!
Love my new NNKH tee shirt, really great quality!! You sir are my idle! Keep those videos coming!!
Great to hear you like the shirt and thank you for the support!
Man great video I’m 14 and have 6 skis I’m working on, keep up the great work 👍
another good one! Thanks, Chris!
Love the river over there and the content.
yo wspppp im watching this in class rn
Nice fun video! Cool to see these run again
9:50 EPA gremlins strike again for trying to defy them.
Waveventure is pretty high hours if it's original. Needs a genuine mikuni carb kit, new steering cable and vacuum leak check.
I have a High performance yamaha wave runner engine you can have if your ever in Northern WV needs a few things but it does have tons of compression
Always happy to see a new video. 😃
Oh yeah . 😊😊😊😊 this are the videos I luv watching
I have that same 97 Seadoo GSX, it is a fun fast ski.
Hey Chris, love watching your videos. You are right up my alley on these jet skis.

Thanks for the boat content. Look fwd to more this spring/summer!
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
I'm glad I built my jet boat when I did. I have nothing it in, and I use the Yamaha 1100 two smoker that has been super reliable.
Awesomeness bro, Do more skis and boats
Do a follow up crusing. Haven't followed past 9 min....
Omg you did
Another great episode Chris!
The "Too Smoke Master" - thanks for the Education

Never been around jet skis, cool video! You always have great stuff!!
We need more boat videos!
Make a jet boat with the engines. I'm sure you have seen em.
Dude you got an air boat that would get through all that. Caddy Swamp Ass!
Problem is the fiberglass hull will not take kindly to hitting big boulders. And also the overhead from branches becomes a problem in the tight stuff
@@NNKH2 you have a point there, didn’t consider either. Would be awesome if you could though!
Bucks County! My old stomping grounds. Worked for the New Hope RR back in the early 2000's.
Keep posting boat videos!
We love the NNKH.
Nice job Nice show 😃👏👏👏👍👍👍
You are definitely my favourite channel on youtube I'm allways exited when i receive a notification keep up the work love from morocco
I'd clean the carburetor on it up. And A suggestion for A good 2 stroke motor oil to run in is some Red Armor 2 stroke motor oil.
Great video Chris, those would be a joy to have in our New Zealand rivers and estuaries. And ocean too.
Glad to be following you and Jen and Gus.
The Grand Torino hooked me.
Ship it to New Zealand.
Better Still , come visit N .Z. (N Z is our equivalent to U.S.A.
Have a great Kiwi hello and good tidings to you all. I am an avid follower .
Paul ❤
Best bet to get a good deal on an aluminum jetboat is Washington St/Oregon. They are much more popular out there than the east coast.
You are a brave man taking a ski that has low compression and could blow up anytime way up a river by yourself! Haha .

When the water is low, you can see then sticking up.
Man I wish you were my neighbor. Such good folks.
Another good one 👍👍
Thanks Chris
Is there ANYTHING you can't get running you are a engine genius. Besides myself you are the only person I would gladly pay to work on anything I own. You are well beyond my pay grade. 👍👌🍺💯.
I love the scenery.
Thumbs up 👍 thanks for sharing 😊
Cool video Chris 👍👍
Thanks brooo!!
No, thank you! Appreciate you tuning in
Excellent video Chris :) also never SEA DOO ever yet and heard lots fun times also funny at times too!
That bed looks nice on your ram
Use one of the ski’s and make a jet John would love to see your video on it
Chris keeps it real.
lol been using that soap for years
It's great stuff!
Ice and "soda" 😂
my favorite part was the jetskis
Awesome! Like watching an e bike review but on the water instead. And you were dodging underwater trees instead of crazy bums, ha!
Yes. Do more boat stuff.
Bro was like Sado instead of seadoo😂
Your brave going out in that thing no paddle or backup lucky it got you back
Current would bring me back
Boat stuff started early this year !!
You should try contacting Cletus McFarland about building you one of those aluminum jet ski boats to for your jet ski engine set-up Chris.
Build a jet Jon!!

Hello Chris , another quick flip!
I’m like damn a 2019 battery that’s almost new , then I realized that was 5 years ago don’t seem real lol , good video 💪🏻
I will check out the soap, Edison in next town over from me.
Could u just get a aluminum mini jet boat hull and then use your JetSki engines You just bought for it. That would be a lot cheaper.
