Please, let us know if you buy a pump conversion, and how it works for you.
I have been wanting to do something like that for running up a river with
alot of sandbars.

I've done google on "jet conversions", and a couple others but only
came
up
with replacement pumps for existing applications. If you see a
specific
site could you reply with it?

I have a new 40 hp Mercury outboard on my 15 ft. aluminum center
console.
If I had known the versatility of jet pumps I would have bought
one,

now
having the new boat and motor wonder if it's cost effective, or
even
possible to purchase a kit to change my prop motor over to a pump.
That's a very popular conversion here on the River Skagit: Aluminum
hull
(will dent, not break when rocks are hit) and O/B with jet foot
(great
shallow-water clearance).

You did not mention why you are considering a jet. If it is
"performance"-
forget it. O/B jet pumps are about 40% less efficient than props. If
it
is
for shallow-water operations, then it cannot be beat. It's also very
safe
around swimmers.

Jet conversions are readily available on the used market.
