OVERVIEW

Simple, lightweight, dependable and powerful - the Jet 65 two-stroke is a popular choice for jet boaters everywhere. Its carbureted design is time-tested, and its light weight allows jet boats to float in very shallow water. The two-stroke powerband gets a boat on plane quickly - a must for jet boat operation.

OPERATION

Water is drawn into the unit through the intake grill by an impeller, driven directly by the engine driveshaft. The water is then forced at high pressure through an outlet nozzle, creating thrust that drives the boat forward. To obtain reverse, a gate lifts into position over the outlet re-directing the pressure stream in the opposite direction.
