I just bolted up a loader. Its one of the angle iron deals. Not a high performace one, but I figure its better than nothin.
My question,
What can I expect the boat to do? Will it do anything to the ride? Speed? Handleing? I have no shoe, or rideplate. I do have a diverter. No droop. Well???

Dan,
I would expect it to direct water into the impeller.
I saw about 2 mph with my old one, I also got better fuel economy.

You shouldn't notice any ride differences Dan. Hopefully just a few MPH gain.
-
yOU SHOULD NOT SEE ANY DIFF IN THE HANDLING. JUST A GOOD CONSTANT LOAD TO THE IMPELLER WITH A INCREASED OUTPUT FLOW.
-
If it is workin right, your RPM might drop while the MPH rises. In short, it helps the pump be more efficient with the additional water supply.
Good Luck Dan

I noticed with mine that the back end of the boat feels more stable now.
-
I have no clue what a loader is, new to jet boats. I was gonna look to see if I have one, what should I be looking for? I'm thinking it is on the bottom of the boat where the inlet to the pump area is.
