[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 451385, member: 12995"] I have both an outboard jet on one boat and an inboard jet drive on the other. Both boats will suck up debris in the water and the shallower you run the bigger the risk. You can tilt the outboard if you need to and if it's really shallow just walk the boat through. With the inboard and jet drive, you have to decide quickly when to shut it off to prevent damage and if you run aground, the weight might make it tougher to walk through the shallow water. My boat with the outboard is a tunnel jet so you may want to consider that so your motor is mounted higher up to reduce the chances of damage. I would look at the lowest cost option to start with and see how things go. [/QUOTE]
