I talked to one of the engineers at Ranger and they've used jet drive outboards on Banshee Extremes like mine on the White River in Arkansas. I do fine with prop drive and I don't want to take the 20HP reduction by going to a jet lower unit. Besides, if I really want to get skinny, like the Collins River, or the Caney at low discharge, I'll go with my son who has a Towee with a jet drive...that thing will blow over gravel bars! Can't do that in my flats boat.
