[QUOTE="Lil' Blue Rude, post: 224382, member: 4627"] I'm sayin most boats around here can pick themselves up out of the water enough they run flat on top of the water with only the ribs being left in the water. A jet that's set up right and trimmed out when on plain shoe is less then 2.5" bellow the bottom of the boat. If your boats running flat you should have no problem getting the boat to run over 2" of water. The shoe will definetly be the first thing to hit if your going to but it's going to take less then 2" of water. I'm not saying you can put a jet in a creek and run it but they will go shallower then any prop motor and alot of guys have run in 2" of water with their jets. I'm a speed freek but I say juice is for (kitty cats :mrgreen: ) Why get on here and dog the outboard jets like you are? Alot of us guys get on here and try to inform people about how outboard jet are great to get into skinny water to fish and just to boat ride and have fun. Most people only hear about how bad they are and it sounds like your one of those guys that goes around sayin how bad they are. If you don't like them don't own one. [/QUOTE]
