jet driven john boat

[brazosjettin]

Has anyone ever seen a pump like  this its a mini jacuzzi about 16 in long with about a 2 1/2 nozzle size mounted in a aluminum john boat . Thinking about picking this thing up and putting in a honda f12 pwc engine in it .

Never seen one but that would be a fun little toy to have once you're done with it Mike!

Looks like it might be a really neat project . I would look around to see if there are any parts available before I jumped into it though . If the parts are not available it might be easier to use a pump and motor from a jet ski .

The guy said its a new 40? year old pump never been ran or installed in anything until he put it in this john boat he just never finnished the project think I can get it pretty cheap.
