Yes – I don’t know if it’s OMC or aftermarket. but I have seen several Evinrudes converted to jet drive. It can run in shallower water, but you lose some 20% of your horse power doing that. My nephew had a friend with a big inboard jet drive, 350 horse power – it could suck flat rocks off the bottom in four feet of water pulling water skis. He had to replace the impeller 2 or 3 times. Last time it broke the housing and sunk the boat. Now he uses an outboard . . . 🙄
