    uhhh no. . . . . those are just bilge blowers and offer zero benefit. They dont even flow enough air to support what your engine needs in even the lowest capacities. Maybe try a commercial gas powered leaf blower?

    The old auto ram air systems offered better forced air flow benifits. These fans actually would restrict air flow after reaching certain speeds, IMO. Waste of time, effort and $$$$.

    I rigged up an old bilge blower on a 2 stroke gas golf cart once and was able to run about 30 mph.....

    Used an automotive washer pump and a vacuum fitting with a cap and pin hole for an injector for extra fuel.

    it was kind of funny when I was flying around the campground when I was 15 yrs old.

    I however would not recommend anything like these pieces of crap for your boat.

    It would need to move ATLEAST 700 CFM of air to even be a candidate and then there's the need for a system to create the electricity to drive it. Scam, BS, Chinese junk.

    so what psi rated duct tape is that? I have seen 200 mph tape but it did not list the boost rating for the tape. proof once more that you should not engineer things when there is a case of beer present.
