[QUOTE="Sparky508, post: 469922, member: 25164"] So my first attempt to deal with this is going be that gutter foam filter stuff. It would squish between the pod and boat when the gap closes. [ATTACH type="full" alt="gutterstuff-gutter-guards-strainers-gs-k5-span-64_1000.jpg"]103343._xfImport[/ATTACH] I reckon it will [u]arrest[/u] the splash, but I wonder, will it have any affect on the drag? Its porosity would allow it to catch water I guess, but enough to hurt, or not enough so as it would help??? Looking at the video, it appears to be mostly coming from the outside edge, and spraying up, between transom and back of the pod. I suppose that a shield of sorts on the side would perhaps work, but would need to be pretty tight to the hull, lest or it would get ripped off pretty quickly. This is gonna drive me nuts! [/QUOTE]
