    use it to drive the big fucking turbine in the vk instead of hopes and dreams and some exhaust gas.

    You might crack less than 2.0 60' :D

      There is a little boat called an aqualark (I think this is the american name). I have seen quite a few on the side of the road. They are a very small 1 person boat designed to be run with a very small outboard. They would be perfect with a little modification, but may have to find out what they call them here. Very cheap also.

              Every time they use a jet drive on scrapheap challenge the outcome is pretty shit. Maybe the choice of engine?

                  I reckon you should keep it as a spare for when one of your bargain jetski's actually fucks up

                      Everything done on scrapheap challenge is a massive pile of shit, despite the fact good components are dropped in front of them they still manage to fuck it up.

                      In regards to the specific issue of jetdrives on the show power is one small part of the problem. Jetdrives require a lot more power then props. But it's not the only issue, they also require fine tolerances between the impellor and it's liner, a concept which those numpties seem to not understand.
                      Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

                              Exactly, I also remember seeing one where they had this fucking tiny inlet for the impeller and the thing wasn't even fully submerged!!
