Once I Get a proper swith I will have my Jetovator working and it now dawns on me I am not sure I know how to set this up for the best hole shot. I understand how to adjust trim once on plane, but If I want to pull the kiddies up out of the water quickly what is my initial setting? Up down or somewhere in between?

Yeah, I kind of figured that a roost on launch would not make me the most popular parent in the family. But it occured to me that when the wife is on the tube and giving driving instructions at the same time I may have a whole new tool in my belt.!!

Fastrat,
I am not sure exactly what you want pictures of so I took the whole jet, on my JF pump the bowl and nozzel make up the jetovator setup so I just bolt the bowl to my JE housing. The nozzel is hooked on with the usual bushings and pins. Anyhow, here is both sides. Sorry about the size.

Somewhere just above mid thigh would be my first guess.

I blew my Step-daughter's top off "accidentally" while she was skiing behind me. I also accidentally hosed down a beach down at blythe. :rolleyes:

fastrat, I know which one you're talking about. Thor has what I have, which is actually called a "trim nozzle" by Berk. The jetovator was orig used on A, G, and C bowls. Someone else on the board asked this once, and Squirtcha? would be the one to check with. He even has a nice picture of the mod he did on his web page. The best I can do to help is show you this one, and link you to the parts diagram. Hope it helps some.
