I wondered about this pump which fits around the shaft. To my way of 
thinking, our trawler shafts don't turn fast enough to attain the advertised 
gpm. For example, my max shaft rpm is 900.

| Another thing to attach to the shaft is a turbine style pump and shroud 
that

| tremendous amount of water out of a hull.
