Alan,

The better Scuba dive scooters have also nice Kort nozzles in various
diameters.

Cliff,

there was a thread a while back on making kort nozzles,

how did the machine shop make yours? Was it a block of nylon 

they machined them out of or did they mold the nylon to a rough

shape & machine that?

I made mine by finding a suitable bucket, wrapping fiber glass around 

the bucket then finishing by hand. I am thinking you could make carbon 

fiber roughs this way & send them off to be machined.

Cheers Alan

Jon, I have been making some progress on my Minnn-Kota 101 thruster project.
The modified thrusters (added Kort Nozzle, Subconn  electrical penetrator
and pressure compensation port).  To see photos go to
<http://www.psubs.org/> http://www.psubs.org/,  then hit projects and photos
section, on the projects page under find at the top of this page, change
from submersible to research and hit search.  The photos are listed under
MK-101 thruster.

The thrusters are ready to go on the boat but I am in the process of
repainting the exterior and interior due to hull mods and then I have to put
everything back together.  I hope to be back in the water this summer.
Still need to do some performance testing of the thrusters.
