tom, what is the blower you are talking about? sounds like it could be a simple solution to his overheating problem

Any boat over 15 feet (I think) is required to be equipped with a blower to vent the engine compartment. It's probably just a very small squirrel cage blower & electric motor. It may even come with some of the duct pipe.

I'll look on the SeaDoo to see just how big it is.

Here is a sample of what I'm talking about:

It's about $30.00 and uses 3" ID hose.

One of the reasons that this set up would be ideal is that it is already marine grade & designed for mounting in the engine compartment. Water ain't going to hurt it & it's designed to operate in a potentially explosive atmosphere so those pesky gas fumes aren't a concern.

NACTA ducts. Don't dirty up the airflow, and provide lots of air. Plus, I think they can be set up to pull or push. Standard equipment on most GT and LeMans cars. Wayne You can place them where you want, pretty much. Incomming at the conefilter, extraction at the rear.
