A water-removal assembly for removing accumulated water from the bilge of a hull of a watercraft that includes a jet propulsion unit with an impeller. The water-removal assembly includes a water pickup provided in the engine compartment. A means for removing water from the engine compartment and preventing water from entering and syphoning into the engine compartment is connected to the water filter by a first conduit. The conduit connects the water removing and preventing means to a water discharge point in the jet propulsion unit so that water is pumped from the bilge. The water removing and preventing means includes a check valve that allows water to flow in one direction so that water is prevented from entering the bilge. A weep hole is provided in the water removing and preventing means to prevent syphoning from occurring in the water-removal assembly.

Jump pump arrangement for jet boat

An outboard motor for mounting on the transom of a boat, has a horizontal engine and output shaft, an exhaust system having a high speed exhaust discharge includes a horizontal portion and a vertical portion having an enlarged cross sectional water jacketed muffler within a water chamber having a retaining wall defining the water level, and a low speed exhaust discharge extending from the muffler into a conduit having an end disposed below the water level of said water chamber, a low speed exhaust gas expansion chamber receiving exhaust gas and expelling same to the atmosphere. The outboard motor is tiltable and provides an enclosure for the engine area including a cowling, hood, and moveable hood section and a sleeve between the moveable hood and engine to perfect enclosure during tilting.
