basically you ditch the whole jetunit and impeller and grate.. than extend the drive shaft back and put a surface prop(drag boat prop) on it, with a rudder..... it turns it into a ski with a prop instead of a pump.....

see pumps are 40% efficient, and props are 90% efficient.. so with my 220+ HP motor the pump only allows 100hp to the water,, but with a prop it allows 200HP to the water,,, so speed efficiency is doubled..........it wont have the flickability of a jetunit but i can fly on the water at over 100MPH... that is worth not being able to do 360's and spinouts.....

plus its awesome on rough water cuz there is no pump to come unhooked... the prop hangs off the back and is always in the water( which equals constant thrust)....

these kits are not available to the general public....
