Title: f&k marine?!?
Post by: str33tz on July 14, 2011, 10:36:55 AM

hey guys, new to the boating world and this forum... I recently acquired an 18ft jet boat locally here in vegas and trying to find info out on the make seems impossible.. According to the title the hull is an f&k marine ? Ive tried researching aorund online about some history/info on these boats and cant find anything... Has anyone heard of F&K Marine, or is it an alias of another brand possibly? its a great boat, ford 460, berkeley jet, and in good shape... just curious about the make and model...

ka0tyk looks similar to your tahiti.. looks like your tahiti dips down just left of where the picture ends, mine runs straight all the way up to the cowl.. anybody know any history on f&k marine?

Welcome boss, ha. I was actually talking to you the other day. I did find some info on them. They were a registered business from 84-89 in Colton, CA. If you search F&K Marine HIN it comes up... And I found another boat from 1977 for sales on CL. But that's all I got, and you might want to try performance boats forum.
