UltraJet® Model Range
 
UltraJet marine jet drives (waterjet propulsion) feature high efficiency single-stage axial-flow pump elements with a variety of intake housings and control options. A wide range of impellers match most marine diesel engines from 134 to 1700 bhp (100 to 1268 kW) with the appropriate direct drive or reduction ratio. UltraJet propulsion systems are rated for the real-world operating conditions encountered by most boats.
 
UltraJet drives excel when thrust is required to quickly accelerate the boat, to permit getting on plane with a full fuel and passenger load, to maintain planing attitude at cruise throttle settings, even in turns, and to maintain control in following or quartering seas yet still providing the best top speed possible with the available power.
