    Impeller Chart..

    I found a chart on a web page (but lost it) that tells you how fast you will go roughly in a jet boat (weight of boat and other things play a factor). It listed horse power + impeller size + rpm = MPH. If anyone has this info can you please post it? thanks.

    Speed Calculator Link

    Here is Jerry Liddell's (LVJetboy) Jet Boat Performance Calculator, free download, that will actually calculate MPH for your setup:

    I think Jer is somewhat of a jetboat genius.

    I think you will find the American Turbine chart a little more accurate.
