    Hi all,
    I am planning to design a new model with a water jet-drive system installed in it.But as it is a commonly known issue , the clogging of the water jet inlet with debris etc. makes me sink down through a sea of ideas.Is there a way to prevent the entry of that debris and other unwanted stuff into the system without reducing the performance ? Please help me about that regard. Cheers

    Anti-clogging system for jet propulsion.

    If you build your jet to chop up all that enters it,like a waste- master disposal unit or a rotory hoe that might work.But there are lots of other reasons why jet propulsion in boats is no real fun.
