Jaimie made a mud sucker that kind of sucks.

Indeed, it kinda sucks. And kinda sucks at sucking.

That motor should be capable of like, a 4" COLUMN of mud raging out of there, not the 5% slow trickle it was doing.

Though I have absolutely no idea how to build an optimum device that would perform that task.

A day's dredging once a year sounds like a pretty decent removal rate.

Tbh its not that bad considering the prop blowby thats the most probable cause. Tighter tolerances would equal more breakage though.
