am turbine reverse shower

[scorpionking]

i am running an am turbine sd 309 with a place diverter,when i throw the boat in reverse to put on the brakes a 15 ft tall wall of water comes over the boat from the diverter :confused: jawdrop drenching me and the boat, in the summer its nice but sure sucks in the cooler weather and really pisses my wife off, what the heck can i do to stop this?????

im with wfo, stop putting it in reverse at speed. btw, what speed are we talkin?

My PD does that as well if the nozzle is pointed way down. Just raise it up to a more neutral setting and you should'nt have a problem.
