I tried one years ago. It was slow and didn't work well in grass. Maybe they have improved since then as it was about 15 years ago.

And as Hydro says, the HP rating is about 20-30% less with a jet drive. Was just curious. |

Could be wrong, but I heard they are next best thing to an airboat in the super shallow sandy stuff. We just don't have much of that terrain.

I hear they burn 30% or so more gas than equivalent prop drive.
