The first time I rode in a jet boat was in the late fall with Bob Meals of Tri River Charters in Talkeetna. I will never forget coming onto a real shallow spot in the river and I knew we were going to be hitting gravel hard. Bob laid that boat over and said he had to "make some water" to get over the spot without hitting. Of course to him it was routine, but I was white knuckled. I left the boat damn impressed and appreciative of guys that "know" their boat and how to drive them.
