I have a comparable boat, 21ft Commander open bow, usually at least wife, me, 3 kids and a load of crap. Motor is probably just shy of 400 horse. Berk jet with ride plate, single A impeller, and a place diverter...old school, manual lever. Mine will not throw the LAM roost, just the 3-4 footer when all the way up. The "tunability" seems to help quite a bit though. Ride and turning characteristics can be changed for water conditions. I can gain, or lose, several mile an hour by trimming the thing. Mine is not a light boat, and not real big on power, but it is noticeable.

It seems like practically everyone on the forum has some sort of adjustable trim for their jet. Are they worth it? If so, is manual or hydraulic better? If manual vs hydraulic has no clear winner, what are the advantages of each?

I ask this because after rebuilding the pump, my boat is performing much better. Yet, there are a couple things that it has trouble with such as, when I load up more than 6 people and try to deep water start a slalom skier. It works fine once we get on a plane, but we can spend quite a bit of time trying to get on a plane in this situation.

Here is a picture of the boat. Its a 23 foot Day cruiser with a 460 BBF and Berk 12-JC pump. The boat"s brand name is Cordova by Fiber-Cell. I"ve never heard of it.

It seems like a place diverter might be the answer to achieve better performance on my boat. Just wondering if they work like they say, faster time to plane and better top end.

I have a 22" family cruiser. I use a hydraulic place diverter for better control of the nozzel position. I also have a guage on my dash that shows the relative position of the nozzel.. This helped me find a reference point for loaded starts to flat out planing.

From what I have seen, people who have the hydraulic pump controlling the diverter like it. If they ever try one that is manual they like it better & many have switched. The manual is nice because the changes in position are actually faster. with the hydraulic pump there is a lot of quick adjustments on the switch to get the diverter in that "just right" spot. The gauge might help.

Something to consider........The manual diverters come with either a floor or stringer mount and those of us running them have 18 and 19 foot boats where we sit very close to the floor. I"m sure in your cruiser, the seating is up high and therefore the stringers are hidden under the floor which is quite a ways down. Unless you rig up some trick mounting bracket, I would go Hydrolic in a boat that big.

im going to be buying the manual control place divertor next month hopefully..but i wanted to know if it really makes a boat go faster..ive heard it has and ive heard you lose power..i honestly cant see how it can make you go faster if its aiming the water coming from the nozzle up..anyone have any experiences?

thanks man yea i understand now..i have a 18ft hondo hull with a BBC396 and a jacuzzi pump..it goes between 58-60..what sort of MPH changes do you think i would be getting if i added the divertor

Man it"s hard to say. The first trip to the lake with my boat wasn"t anything like I expected a jet to be. It had zero roost and the boat rode wet almost like it was plowing through the water. My speed was around 45. After I put a diverter on it the speed and handling improved dramatically. With a little tweak here and a tune there I"m up to 58. with a small block Chevy. A major chunk of that 13Mph was the diverter. along with some engine tuning. I have 2 ,4* wedges to put on it to raise the jet even further and possibly get a little more speed out of it. Here"s the before and after pic and you can see the difference it made with the way my hull rode.

gotcha..thats a big difference in speed for the things you did..to make the jet shoot higher you would add angled wedges?Ive seen place divertors that shoot kinda low and i wanted to make it so it would shoot pretty high..thanks again for the info C.T.

I got the hydraulic and love it when it works and piss & moan when it don"t. I had the manual but it was mounted on the stringer rite in the center of the drivers seat. A couple of big rollers helped my decision to go Hydro.

with the Hydraulic you can tap the toggle till you find the sweet spot. You can do the same with a manual but you have to find it by adjusting the lock nuts.

Back when I bought my Place Diverter I was asked if I had a split bowl. I was told If I had a JC I would have to rotate the bowl so the pins where vertical. I told them I had a JG and it was all good.

Nope, that"s only on factory jet-o-vator ones I believe. My pins are straight up and down, but my friend"s JC nozzle pins are on the left and right hand sides, but if you have a jetovator I don"t think you would need a place diverter at all cause they allready have trim adjust.

in your boat i"d probably do hydraulic...like cave said when it works its the best but when it doesn"t :mad: :mad: i have a manual now but honestly i wish i had my hydraulic diverter back.. i hate having the shifter on the floor ....oh and if you do manual get a lockout shifter :)

Here is a couple of pics of mine, before I swapped bowls. Its a JC pump, the diverter was on it when I bought the boat. When I started making inquiries about the bowl deal, I was told the diverter for a JC pump & a JG pump were interchangeable. That was key in my deal, cause if I had to spring for another diverter, I wasn"t gonna swap bowls....

So basically Place now offers a diverter for the JC bowl. That"s a good thing cause I know a few people that ask me here if they can pick one up. I"ve had my place diverter for a long time and back then around 1999 I picked up the Hydraulic. I love it when it works:D . Next step on the diverter will be a wheel mounted switch. But that"s a low priority.

(FINE TUNE NOZZLE) model which allows you to change the inserts for the best performance for your boat. Mine is hydraulic and have the buttons on the steering wheel. Works great....check out my rooster....E

The place diverter performed very well. Backing in reverse was much improved. I was able to stay on a plane at a much slower speed while towing skiers and tubes. The ride feels more solid at all speeds. The top end seems faster(I don"t have a speedometer).

I"ve owned both manual and hydraulic actuated Place diverters in two different boats, I currently have a hydraulic system. While I really like the ease of use with having the hydraulic switch on the wheel I kind of miss the manual controls in a way. On my old boat I had my manual floor controls adjusted exactly where I wanted and always knew exactly where I was with the position of the nozzle. If I was trimmed up nicely at a high speed and wanted to turn sharp, no problem, pull the lever all the way back, turn and gas it. Without a trim indicator on my hydraulic system I find myself counting a few seconds and hope that the nozzle is down before a tight turn. I should probably look into a trim indicator package to get my warm and fuzzy feeling back but the lag time would still be there... Just my .02
