Me too , i'm courious- I have been told it gives' you more bow lift and makes your boat a lil more of a handful to drive

i bought the kit from rexmar.com for under $400
droop snoot
gaskets
steering extention and bolts
works well. i also bought the loader. it made the boat feel alot lighter in the water. picked up some mph. but i also dont have 10million hp. like all the other balla's in here

It gave my kachina more lift and also planted the ass harder to the water. Oh and did I mention the boost in the rooster;) YOu will need a steering extension and the swivel for the tiller arm.

what's the word on droops as far as bottom end "punch" and so on. i've herd droops were developed for taylor jet boats.i gotta 78 taylor sj and i was wondering if anyone has a droop/place divertor setup on one of their taylors.

i dont know about all boats. but it made mine slower out of the hole, i didnt wedge my down like rexmar recomends, so it throughs a monster roost. but i also need to have my pump done. it does ride a little better and is easier to steer and drive.
