Reducing Jet Wash / Wake

[kong5753]

Recently bought a 2004 Seadoo Islandia Jet Boat and love it. However, the jet creates a large spray and when towing knee boards or tubes they are covered in water. Does anyone have any suggestion on reducing this spray? I am not sure about changing the angle of the spray nozzle or if that is even possible. If so, are there other side effects like porpoising , or large bow drag.. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome! Thanks!!

Nope, that is just the way the hull and jet are. You can try moving people and gear forward or back but that's about it.

I'll assume you're talking about when someone is on them behind the boat? If so.........get a longer rope. I use a sectional rope so I can tailor the rope to be just outside the wash for kneeboarding. Then we used that to judge how long of a rope we needed for tubing and bought the appropriate length tube rope. I have a Speedster so completely different lengths as what you might need. Just math and money to get it right.
