Jet drive and blowers

[Black Duck]

Question: Has anyone here ever used a Jet-drive with prop-wash, And if so what size and how did it compare to Prop wash, modifications etc.
Thanks in advance just to much time on my hands

Black Duck, your old colleague Jason N. used a jet drive modified for moving sand. He might be a resource of info for you.

Thanks, I spoke to John B and he set me straight, I think he has tried everything

Curious how it works. The jet drive on a 250HP jet ski powers fly boarders 20’ in the air through a 50’ long tube. I can only imagine what a big Hamilton jet drive would push. A jet ski mounted fly board adapter/hose seems like it would be absolutely perfect for 10’ or less beach work..

I would think if you can get down 4-5 ft of sand along shoreline with treasure coins, which is over rocks/shallow bedrock or hardpan, you just might have yourself a meal ticket.
