Water jet propulsion unit with counter-rotating impellers

Water Jet Abstract
A water jet apparatus with counter-rotating impellers for propelling a boat. The impellers are coupled by an assembly comprising an impeller shaft secured to a first impeller and a gear train coupling the impeller shaft to a second impeller for counter-rotation. Preferably the gear train comprises one beveled gear secured to the impeller shaft, another beveled gear secured to the second impeller, and a beveled pinion meshed with the first and second beveled gears. The counter-rotating impellers can be driven by a drive shaft coupled to the first impeller for boats having an inboard motor or by a drive shaft coupled to the pinion for boats having an outboard motor.
