Abstract
A watercraft includes an improved reverse thrust deflector assembly includes a locking mechanism that cooperates with first and second stops. The first stop establishes a raised position of a thrust deflector and the second stop established a lowered position of the thrust deflector. When in each of these positions, the locking mechanism engages the corresponding stop to inhibit unintentionally movement of the thrust deflector. The thrust deflector assembly includes a mounting bracket assembly that supports the thrust deflector about the discharge end of a corresponding jet propulsion unit. The bracket assembly extends forward of a discharge end of a discharge nozzle to support the rust deflector at a position closer to the discharge end of a steering nozzle of the propulsion unit. The bracket assembly also includes hollow passageways through which various conduits and cables, which are used with the jet propulsion unit, can be routed.
