[QUOTE="bulldog, post: 319036, member: 4592"] I wanted to make a note on the reverse gate on the American Turbine pump that came on my Gator. It is trash, absolute junk. It is better than nothing but it really is almost as good as nothing. The reverse thrust almost does not exist and if you put it in reverse and give it some gas, the water will absolutely soak the driver and passenger. Everything is set up just like it should be, I triple checked, it is just a horrible design. They make a better one but pricing is in the $350 range. I'm going to have to buy one just for safety's sake but I am less than pleased about the stock gate. Besides not having any reverse pulling power and soaking the people in the boat, if any sort of rock or even large sand gets in between the gate and the nozzle, you have to clean it out before you shift from reverse to drive. Ill get off my soap box now. [/QUOTE]
