Water Jets; efficiency?

I've always been curious about jet drives in yachts. the pro's and cons. I've seen them on small boats like Hinkley or large yachts like braveheart,(i believe). how do they compare for maneuvering,fuel cost,mainteneance,etc.I live in the pacific northwest,usa, and there is a lot of crud in the water. seems like it would pay not to have propellers hanging down to hit it.
just curious.
