The invention relates to a water-jet propulsion unit (10), which includes - a body (16), - an impeller (28) for moving water, the impeller including (28) an impeller tunnel (38) - an impeller shaft (34) for driving the impeller (28), - a first bearing housing (54) to support the impeller shaft (34) on the body (16), - a jet nozzle (36) for forming a water jet, in which the body (16) comprises a first contact surface (20) of the flow duct (18), which includes an inlet opening (22) and an outlet opening (26), planes of which are at an angle α relative to each other, and a shaft opening (30) for the impeller shaft (34), and in which the impeller (28) has a first end (44) comprising a second contact surface (46) and a second end (48) comprising a third contact surface (50) to seal the impeller tunnel (38) between the body (16) and the jet nozzle (36), and the impeller (28) is adapted for alternative types of installation in such a way that the angle Ω is between the impeller's (28) second contact surface (46) and third contact surface (50), and the impeller (28) is arranged to be turned through 180° relative to the horizontal direction, and the water-jet propulsion unit (10) includes support means (25) for supporting the impeller shaft (34) on the body (16), with the aid of the first bearing housing (54), in alternative postions (p1,p2) to permit alternative angles of the impeller shaft (34) in the alternative types of installation. The invention also relates to a corresponding boat.
