I was amazed at the lack of publications on this subject, and I live near the Snake and Salmon rivers where jet boats were first used. I didn't get my copy of "Jet Boats" untill after I had purchased my own boat so I didn't bother with the first four or five chapters. I started with the information on running white water and reading the river which I found to be disappointingly brief. [Footnote: around here people start out learning to run the river by following the Jet tour boats and hiring off seasion fishing guides.] However, the chapter on learning maneuvering skills was, to me, worth the price of the book. Same again for the chapter on maintenance including, acessories, spare parts, sun glasses (!), and inspections and periodic maintenance. After going back and rereading the whole book I decided that Mike Kirnak did a great job in eighty pages. I can't wait for the sequel.
