The Riviera Episode 1

We now have merch available for purchase! Go check it all out at westcoastriver...
WCRO takes a Riviera jet boat and gives it a pump lift! We install a droop snoot and hydraulic place diverter. Best of all, we party on the water with the boys at Berryessa Hot Boats. Secret preview for a future video is at the end!

never thought much about jet boats till i found you on TH-cam. now im watching all your stuff. we dont see many up here in michigan. what is the purpose of a droop?

[@westcoastriveroutlaws]

It brings a smile to our faces knowing the content we put up is helping spread interest in hot boats! The droop is designed to lower the exit point of your jet's water. Additionally, this helps lift the bottom of your boat out of the water while doing a full speed pass. Less boat in the water means less drag. Less drag means more mph. Larger/heavier boats tend to like the droop. Other hulls such as a tunnel, gullwing, light layup, etc. may not need the assistance of a full droop and sometimes benefit more with a straight snoot or HPH mini droop. Every boat is different though.
