The last chart shows the pumps 8+ GPM capacity, dwarfing the 10 and 30.

Got to remember that the pressure on the edge of a automotive pump, Johnson pump, and or boat propeller is durn near a great suction. The boat is cavitating 2' below a lake (1+ PSIG) thats probably 70 degrees F or so and its boiling. Lots of work has gone into the US Sub propeller to keep it from cavitating hundreds of feet below the sea's surface.
