This probably won't apply to you but if you ever plan to use a jet boat in the ocean where there is significant seaweed floating around (Boothbay, etc) then you WILL have a problem. While the jets chew up and spit out about everything at high rpms when you are in a wake free zone going slow they definitely will clog up. Let me tell you, the ocean is COLD when you need to clean out your intakes.
You may find that the jets hug the water better than other types of boats due to the suction but also create a harder ride because of that. One plus is that they can stop on a dime.
