Any of ya'll interested in doing some kind of trade. I have all new Place Diverter hydraulic controls with steering wheel button and indicator gauge but I want a manual control set up. I would be willing to work out some kind of trade with someone as long as I don't have to take too big of a hit. Anyone interested??

I think the manual controls are better for hi-performance deals personally. You can get the diverter from one position on take off to your haul ass setting a lot faster and with more precision than you can with the hydraulic. I find myself dickin' with it trying to find the sweet spot all the time. I am willing to deal, hit me with an offer.

Many users of Hydraulic have put "manual adjustable" up and down stops.
You mount a bolt system against a stop and with fine thread bolts you can really dial the perfect launch angle and go fast angle.

I have a manual diverter setup that has one tooth missing on handle lock. I am interested in buying your hydraulic setup if you want to let loose with it and then you can buy a new manual diverter. PM me if interested

This what I use to find the sweet spot.

Of course I can't make the big roosters, unless I remove the stop. But roosters make my boat porpoise real bad so, I never really liked it any way.
It would be nice to tell where the diverter is, by looking at the handle, though.
But I dont have stringers, and did not want to drill holes through the bottom, to mount the handle.
