I am looking for answers to a problem and was wondering on what side of the rudder blade people put there water pick ups on and how deep below the struts.
Reason. I have a twin SGX-2 90 Boat and it seams to be struggling to pick up water. With the garden hose it pumps water out the water jacket about 1 1/2 inches high so there is no restriction there but when running the boat it has little or no water coming out of the heads. The leading edge of the pickup is past the leading edge of the blade so blow buy is not a issue and the hole is 1 inch below the struts on the right hand side.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
I have never had this much trouble picking up water before.
