Subject: RE: Will a jet boat work for me?

It has a 60hp Yamaha. Both 2010 models boat/motor. Does the weeds and debree actually get inside the foot or does it have a screen that it stops up where I could just shut it off and clean it out? If I do not get it I will probably just get a new/newish Alumacraft since the old one has held up good as it has. I have hit bottom several times with it(motor). I'm not sure if some of those little skids that bolt on the skegs would help a prop motor much or not. He claims that he's ran in 5" of water with 2 people and gear with the jet and that sounds pretty excellent. It also has two HDS-8 Gen1 units. Only thing I might add is some MinnKota Talons or PowerPoles.
