Saw a Jetmate on CL this weekend and picked it up!
Went to test it out today and noticed that anything passed 3/8th's throttle really didn't do anything.
Engine got slightly louder but that's about it.
It can get up on a plane, and the throttle is adjusted correctly and moves through it's full range.
It get's up to about 20-25 mph.
I'm wondering if it's a cavitation issue?
Pump vanes are pretty well worn, missing about an 1" of material similar, but worse than this example pic...
That or maybe that's just it, engine can only push so much before the drag of the boat overcomes it?
Any jetmate drivers out there?
Thanks!
