Thread: Droop Snoot / Place Diverter

  1. #1
    MISSING
    I've been looking into getting my project 18 Biesemeyer jetdrive rebuilt. It currently has a droop snoot, and I want a place diverter. I've been told that I should replace the droop snoot and go with just the place diverter. Can I go with both? What are the pros / cons? I'm planing on using a 502, 502hp crate engine, can anyone give me an idea of what performance I should be seeing? Hull is blueprinted and pump will be rebuilt to new, plus whatever I can do to make it as efficient as possible. Hull is really light. Thanks for your input...

    Does the droop make that much differance, if so is it worth the money?

    i think it help alot.... it makes the boat feel lighter in the water when your up on plane. it doesnt feel so stuck. it gets a little loose at times. but its better by far.

    I have that same droop and nozzle setup on my Jacuzzi, in my Biesemeyer and it works great. Boat always has a slight wiggle to it, nothing bad just a feeling when running kinda midrange but is steady at full throttle. Could be part of the shoe and rideplate working together, only does it when running light and not with 5 people in the boat. this is a part throttle pic http://www.classicboatbeachbash.com/...cbbb040124.JPG
