Super Jet Front Exhaust

[Gliderskier]

Shortened the back of my squarenose 4.5" and don't wanna cut into the patch thinking it wo weaken it. Other option is front exhaust but I have Tubbies on the ski. Where do you think I should place it. Will it work if I put it behind the Tubbies right near the bulkhead or will it cause cavitation?

Don't run a front only exhaust, everyone will hate you. lol

Why? Any dual outlet ski I have heard is noisy when it's leaving and riding by the one way.

 

[D-Roc]

This is where most of us guys put it.

Just put it back as far as possible. I have dual scuppers and rear exhaust. Mine is just on the side

 

[Gliderskier]

I definately want to do dual scuppers. You have your side exhaust by the bulkhead? Can't really see in the picture

Look at the side of the hull right by the right side scupper

Does the ski cavitate at all having it there? Heard t could lead to some cavitation

 

[Gliderskier]

???

do a rear exhaust and just dump it out the side, rather than cutting through your patch.

i don't see why it could cavitate. The exhaust is no where near the pump or intake duct.
good luck with your build.

 

[Gliderskier]

I was told it will cavitate. I was thinking about just drilling through the tubbie

 

[Joker]

Ya there shouldn't be any cavitation issue with having it there.

Are you thinking of the older Kawasakis with the exhaust dumping into the pump....? All the above suggested areas should not create any cavitation...

 

[BruceSki]

Ask superjett about his rear/side exhaust and how it cavitated.

 

[Gliderskier]

Thanks Bruce. You get a side exhaust set up yet

 

[BruceSki]

Yeah got a front exhaust outlet.
