Is a Honda WX10 pump enough for a 1.5" Suction nozzle?

I'm putting together a compact/lightweight 6" sluice highbanker/dredge combo setup. I would love to be able to use the super light and portable Honda WX10 pump but the question is whether it will be strong enough for dredging. Apparently it has a 37 gallons per minute capacity, 118 feet of head, which would put the pressure at 52PSI.

Is anybody here using one of those?

I helped a fellah pack his 1.5 dredge in a while back. It had some kinda little honda 2 stroke pump on it. Not sure exactly what motor it was. But it worked alright. I think it was a Jobe backpack dredge. Might look into that. See what motor they are using.
