Put money down the Solar 420 model, at Sportsman show, need to find a 30 HP Jet now. Great video looks like they finally hull built right to not cavitate, should allow a lot of access to skinny water. A lot of performance with a little motor from what I have seen, but well see when it gets here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77rNDHFPsiMThe 15 ft video around 17 to 19 min very interesting would not want them to borrow my boat! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVlilIBjE8k&t=12s

Very nicely done video, but not seeing what you found so cool about the boats.... and I assume you mean ventilation, not cavitation.

Cool video. The scenery reminds me of the Squirrel River and the Omar.

Nice boats and I have been wanting an inflatable. I might have to throw some dollas-to-rubles Uncle Vlad's way.

Look like nice toys, but for a serious outing I'd want a couple extra craft to come along.

I like the big church key can opener looking thing that the guy uses to to remove gravel from the impeller grid toward the end.

This is a real problem with most of the inflatables on the market today. I think thats what the OP was referring to when he mentioned this hull doesn't do that, and from watching the videos I would have to agree . Pretty impressive performance from a 30 HP outboard jet.

Negative, cavitation is when the propellor or impellor moves liquid so fast it creates bubbles and the bubbles collapse back on themselves. It is a term in science. Ventilation is when the design of the boat allows water to get under the hull and into the prop or pump. They are not the same thing and yes, many people do not know the difference. http://www.dictionary.com/browse/cavitationcavitation [kav-i-tey-shuh n] Spell Syllables Word Origin noun 1. the rapid formation and collapse of vapor pockets in a flowing liquid in regions of very low pressure, a frequent cause of structural damage to propellers, pumps, etc. 2. such a pocket formed in a flowing liquid. Origin of cavitation

Origin of cavitation The smartest man I ever met, ( and the wealthiest) quit college in his second year. He always said the most valuable lesson he ever learned was in his freshman year. His english teacher told him not to worry to much about proper english, the most important thing was to speak and write in such a way that you are easily understood by your audience. As a licensed EMT the first thing I think of when I hear "ventilation" is an exchange of air between the lungs and atmosphere.......or I need to get my window down to get some ventilation because the inside of the ambulance doesn't smell to good... https://www.google.com/search?clien....1.1.64.psy-ab..7.1.566....0.5xd2HflZkBsI dont think to many outdoorsmen worry to much about scientific terms. I've been running jet boats for 35 years and I've never heard anyone use the term "ventilation". Either way you dont want a hull that causes your pump to suck air, what you call it doesn't really matter, but if you use the term "cavitation" experienced boaters will know what you mean.
