[QUOTE="Ranchero50, post: 354256, member: 1523"] I can't see why a jet setup from an older stand up wouldn't work wonders in a smaller hull. Comparably it's going to fly. Small single cylinder engine (the expansion pipe is larger than the engine) and a 5 gallon fuel tank. Keep out of the throttle and it should troll along fine as long as the fuel isn't mixed to heavy. With the oil pump on my Seadoo I've idled for @ ten minutes working through some really shallow areas without issues. Or work something up like a chainsaw powerplant but I think you would need a very find pitched impeller for it to rev correctly. Of course I'd hate to listen to one run while idling. [/QUOTE]
