My rooster tail on my 1998 yamaha wave runner is about 2 feet tall?

Question

When running at full throtle, my rooster tail, or my stream of water out of the back is only about 2 feet tall. it runs like a top.

Answer 1

The rooster tail was designed to give your ski more visibility to other boat traffic.  Try pushing a stiff wire back and forth through the tube that the water comes out of to clean it out.  It's probably partially blocked.  I would not remove it, you will not notice any significant increase in speed by doing so.

Answer 2

that rooster tail is wasted energy...instead of propelling you forward, it's throwing water into the air.

Answer 3

My rooster is red and gives free rides. It say c**k-a-doodle-doo

The rooster on your ski is not needed. You should remove it for a bit more power. If it used to shoot farther, check and see if it is plugged.
