latest issue of wooden boat has an article about a lobster boat with a pwc power plant in it, pretty interesting reading.

a friend of mine in Sneeds Ferry, NC used to build "Diamond Boats" he used some Kodiak pumps behind some gas and diesel boats, had good luck with them, at the time, OMC sold their V4 jet pump(like used in the Boston Whaler Rage, not the replacement lower units) package for repower, he tried them in some smaller boats but got much better performance out of a standard outboard of the same hp. The 27 he built with a Kodiak pump and a 3126 Cat was pretty cool

the pumps are sweet for low water conditions or for rock shallow water fishing such as river work. but you lose a major chunk of horse power so the engines have to be much stronger to give you the same performance as a prop. they are also subject to debris foul up to.
