Hydrojet propulsion system

A personal watercraft is disclosed including a flotation portion, a strut extending from the flotation portion, and a motor pod is disposed along the strut with an electric motor operably coupled to a driveshaft. A hydrojet unit is removably attached to the motor pod and includes an inlet portion removably attached to the motor pod and a substantially cylindrical housing. The inlet portion includes a substantially conical motor interface with a shaft through-hole for receiving the driveshaft therein, one or more fins extending outwardly from the conical motor interface, and at least one ring encircling the conical motor interface and connecting to each of the one or more fins for inhibiting objects from passing through the inlet region. The housing defines a fluid flow path to an outlet portion. The hydrojet unit includes an impeller coupled to the driveshaft and a stator disposed within the housing.

Hydrofoil wing attachment system
11472511 · 2022-10-18 · ·

A hydrofoil wing attachment system that comprises a strut or struts and a hydrofoil wing fastening apparatus for various watercraft including, but not limited to, surf boards, kite boards, and stand up paddle boards. In one embodiment the system interfaces with legacy surfboard fin-box systems, thus allowing a user to interchange fins for hydrofoils and transform their watercraft into a hydrofoil watercraft. Other embodiment's of the system allow the implementation of a single-strut/wing combination and also a double-strut/wing combination among other variations. The design of the wing clamping apparatus allows the user to mechanically secure the wing and also configure the angle of attack of the hydrofoil wing. The modular design, configuration options, and high degree of interchangeability of the hydrofoil wing attachment system enables the user to experiment with multiple strut/wing configurations, wing/strut designs, and also the angle of attack.
