ABSTRACT:
A water jet propelling apparatus for boats forces waters by a pump through a nozzle directed astern of the boat. A curved lowerable jet-deflecting surface downwardly and forwardly deflects the water and reverses the thrust; and a pair of steerable parallel rudder blades are pivotable in unison for laterally deviating the jet. The jet-deflecting surface has symmetrical channel-like side portions which directs water escaping laterally from the clearance between the trailing edges of the rudder blades and the jet-deflecting surface forwardly towards the bow to enhance the reverse thrust, and a central portion which is complementally shaped with the welder blades for maintaining the clearance with the latter constant for various pivotal deviations of the blades.
