I hope I am not getting too sidetracked here, but has anyone looked at putting these in a waterjet? I know that installing a waterjet with a rim drive means that the rim drive is now inside the hull so if it leaks its going to be a bad day... The drive is already in a tunnel so I dont see why it wouldnt be easy to adapt to a jet. I think it is a great idea not having a shaft turning in the water but I dont think it is a good idea to have the rim drive mounted under the hull. It is an expensive and probably sensitive piece of equipment.
