Default RE: The Unofficial all things Jet drive thread


ORIGINAL: SicRC
My only concern about building my twin KMB 28 powered PX16 is what's gonna happen when one jet gets a gob full of air and loses thrust.
Have you had any reservations about the P16 being a stepped hull? This is just speculation, but are you concerned that the froth caused by the stepped hull might induce aeration at high speeds? It's for this reason that I looked so long for a non-stepped hull to use for a jet conversion.
