Jet thruster, bow/stern thuster

I tried doing a search on this subject without any luck.
I was wondering if anyone has looked into these type of thrusters? I only stumbled across them during a search for typical thrusters on the web. I already have a bow thruster and was looking for a stern unit.
I don't really like the looks of the hang off and down from the boat stern type and I don't know if I have the room for a tunnel style. Not sure how a water pump will stand up to salt water and I haven't searched enough to know if they are using stainless steel impellers and volutes, or if the price is out of this world.
