What Jet Drive Opens Up
Built for Water Where Clearance Matters.
Outboard jet drives are built for water where clearance matters—rocky rivers, shallow channels, shoals, sandbars, marshes and backwater areas used for fishing, hunting and exploring.
No Propeller Hanging Below the Motor
The jet-drive arrangement eliminates the conventional exposed propeller hanging below the motor.
Built for River Running
Well suited to many aluminum river boats, sleds, jon boats and similar shallow-water applications when properly configured.
Fish. Hunt. Explore.
Access water that is difficult or risky for many conventional prop-driven setups.
Jet Drive, Explained
What Does a Jet Kit Actually Do?
A jet conversion changes how your outboard creates thrust. Instead of spinning a conventional propeller, the motor drives an impeller. Water enters through the jet intake and is accelerated through the pump and nozzle to move the boat.
Same outboard platform. A very different kind of water.
