A valve that sits on the hand hole cleanout that relives pressure from the intake during shutdown. If motor shuts down impeller stops spinning or slows way down. Impeller can't get rid of water that intake is building as boat moves. When this happens the boats can get loose and dangerous. Valves relives that pressure. Mostly found on race boats.

yes they have to be on a set back pump because they evacuate what ever water is in the pump until the boat slows down enough,and there about 1500-2000 depends on the setup.i dont know much but from what i understand a ratchet is just as good and i think there only like 1200 bucks they let the pump freewhell when ever you get out of the throttle no mater when a pop off valve only works when you hit the button, or if you have a bowl pressure switch.

Might have to bust out the parkas for the first shakedown but 07 is the goalie.
Looser of the bet has to drink the leftover river beers on the floor in the unit B1 shithouse.

correct me if I'm wrong but I think you have to have more than one running boat to be a TEAM.

here's a video I found on my computer that shows what a pop-off does. You can see at the end of Jerry Hicks' run where it pops. You can also see a little footage of some of the members here.
