ABSTRACT:
An improved diverter unit for use with jet boats. The diverter unit includes an inlet unit which has a substantially tubular conduit therethrough. The inlet unit includes at least one radial vane which extends into and along the length of the conduit to control the direction and characteristics of fluid flow through the unit. An outlet unit also includes a substantially tubular conduit therethrough. A separate reverse outlet is disposed adjacent to the outlet unit but does not directly interface therewith. A reverse bucket is pivotally mounted to said outlet unit and selectively covers the outward end of said outlet unit to selectively direct fluid through said reverse outlet.
