ABSTRACT:
A water intake and transmission system for simultaneously driving dual jet units of a jet boat. According to a preferred embodiment, the water intake includes dual channels to allow the uptake of dedicated streams of water. Mounted to the intake is a housing having first and second jet units encased therein wherein each jet unit receives a dedicated stream of water from a respective channel of the water intake. A transmission is operatively coupled to each respective jet unit and is further connected to the driveshaft of the boat engine, preferably via gears, belt-drives, and/or chain drives, that is operative to simultaneously drive both jet units from a single driveshaft.
