UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Jordan spotted this unusual combo. This package creates an early jet powered boat using a Kermath modified L-134 and a Hanley Hydrojet. I’ve included a Kermath brochure and links to the development of the Hydrojet by Keenan Hanley at the bottom of the post.
“Willys Jeep engine block casting number 804380, and Hanley Kermath HydroJet. I’ve never attempted to start. $500”
This is a brochure for the Kermath modified L-134:
Here’s a schematic of the hydrojet developed by Keenen Hanley:
From the book “Without a Prop” By David S. Yetman. IT includes some background on the development of the system.
Hi Jim,
The Facebook link indicates this jet unit has sold. I’ve updated the post. I wish I had a suggestion on where to look for another, but I haven’t seen any others.
You collection sounds interesting. The only jet boat I’ve ever ridden in was in New Zealand (not too far from Queenstown) many years ago …
Best of luck on your hunt!
