Default What is your favorite drive shower?

I'm trying to keep my Bravo drive alive as long as possible. I currently run the original single tube (non halo) cooler. I'm sure there are much better coolers available now and I am ready to upgrade. Your input would be greatly appreciated. Pictures and prices would be nice also. Thanks!

TC,
I am running an Innovative Marine pickup, with a Teague cap.
I'm conviced this pickup style flows more water that the standard Teague. It is also adjustable for depth.

I loved my Innovative marine shower. I plumbed mine into the raw water pump so I knew that no matter what the trim position my shower was getting water. Another benifit is that there is no chance for caviation due to the shower.

What's better than 1 tube?,.......... 2 tubes!

I really like my Halos. On my previos boat, I peaked over the swim platform to watch it in action. TONS of water. I think they are around $125 each.

Like it so well, I installed 2 on my current boat. Have no experience with any others.

Thanks for the input guys. It looks like the Simrek Halo would be hard to beat especially for the money. I will give Fred at Trick a call next week.

I totally agree with Cord tapping into you raw water circuit after the sea pump is the best way to be positive you have good water flow to the shower at all times. Any tube no matter what its tip configuration is can and will plug up sooner or later, also some insist on a slight speed lose not sure how true that is but worth considering.

I see the new drive shower from REX Marine in most of the boating magazines. Does anyone have any experience with this shower?
