A motorized watercraft includes a board and a cassette coupleable to the board. The board may be a surf board or a wakesurf board with a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface includes a mounting space for receiving the cassette with an outer surface of the cassette in alignment with the top surface of the board and the bottom surface of the board includes an intake. The cassette includes a power source, an electric motor, an impeller, and a controller. The controller executes instructions to activate the electric motor and rotate the impeller to provide a short burst of forward thrust during operation of the watercraft in response to an input from a user. The thrust assists a user with maintaining their position on a wake during surfing or wakesurfing.
