Got any more info on that diverter set up you are making, sounds interesting.

The nozzle angle is set by adjusting the heim joints and it stays there. This boat is so heavy that I can leave with positive angle and not "belly flop" so adjustments are not needed while running. The cable set up had a ton of slop in it and I never could get a repeatable nozzle setting so this is the fix for that.

I gotcha. So being as how it will be fixed, you'll eliminate the floor control then? I hear you on the cable issue.

Yep cannot take credit for the build, my crew does not let me touch a wrench, I am just the loose nut behind the wheel.  :smile16:

It's not that we don't believe you can work on it yourself.  It's just that we don't think you should.

Forcast is calling for 80 deg. and sunny Sunday. Somerville is calling me.  :smile16: I guess offseason isn't here yet.
