Hello fellas Im new to the site but I was told this is a great place to look for some answers. Ill try to keep it simple and sweet.
My buddy has the boat at his place for the winter, and he asked me if this nozzle is supposed to have that cutout from factory or if had been broken off at some point. I tried looking for pics but none of the ones i found were from this particular boat. This boat, a 1995 Donzi 152 Medallion. We had been having some trouble getting it to plane, so I'm wondering if this could be why. if it is broken, it broke so symmetrically that it looks like it could be factory.Can any of you guys can tell me for sure if this thing is broken. And potentially how much could this affect the performance. the boat is in good shape and the engine starts right up and runs great. thanks for any and all help.
