I am now living in Sweden and have done since 1969-1981 and 1989 to current date. Nice to see a typical hard working, entrepreneurial South African making a new life in a safer country.

    No Dave, cavitation is not sucking air. It’s to much pressure differential between the suction side and output side of the pump. Grind the flat bars on the intake grate to a point(like a dull knife blade).
    Then to get more water flowing into the intake grate you can weld a spoon in front of the grate to increase pressure at the grate. Works like an upside down airplane wing.
    With these modifications, you will be able to throw more horsepower at that pump

      Thank you sir, you nailed that perfectly. 100% agree!
      Think of it as a air intake but much fussier. To much junk in the way = bad air flow, to much turbulence = bad air. Like tap water running over the bottom of a spoon you want the water to naturally flow into the turbine.

      I have welded plenty them on world champion jet race boats. Magoo, specifically. You then have to grind them down to a specific shape for maximum efficiency. Each boat has a few different templates that works best for them.
      I’ve taken brand new hauls and modified them before they touch the water.

    Takes me back to racing and building mod race engines for Yamaha Blasters (original Blaster of course) and SuperJets. Good times. Although when we got 140-150hp out of 1100 triple I raced in the Blaster in the Open Classes we thought we were doing good. It was a rocket though....funnest Jetski I’ve ever ridden. And I’ve ridden them all. Nothing did or probably ever will handle like a 1993 Wave Blaster. The good ol Two-Stroke days! Fun to watch, brings back a lot of memories with this stuff even though they’re completely different now.
    PS. The new Four-Stroke SuperJets suck! Honesty all stand ups suck compared to a full mod 550 Kawi!😂

That's awesome parenting.. lead the way and teach them! These days so many kids are just handed everything and have 0 to little work ethic. It's sad to see.. so giant gold stars to Justin and his son. I agree with some of the other comments. Y'all should hire him to get all your boats and such going.. with it being summer now that would make for some great content. Plus get him behind the wheel some a pro in action😉 of course I love all y'all, your whole team is made up of some really awesome people.
