Yep. I see many jet outboards here. They are used on the shallow Sacramento river on fishing boats.

You need look no further than Mother Yamaha for a jet outboard.... A buddy of mine runs a few river boats up in Talkeetna and Ketchikan AK..... They run great!

On a related subject @satvod, didnt you use one of the outboard jets to power your homemade jet pack / jet lev? Please tell us more about that. I recall seeing only one or two pic on yjb (one of you in flight) without much follow up.
