I have a 38' Lightning with Bravo's.... first boat I've owned that didn't come with drive showers. I know their cheap insurance. Any recommendation on which I should purchase?

If she has the latest style Latham steering, the stainless steel plate on top of the drive already has a screwed hole where you can fit a hose (available from Latham or Livorsi, maybe also others) whose other end with the pickup goes on the cavitation plate.
Btw, I don't think the one suggested by Back4More is compatible with Latham steering, that your 38 has I suppose?

Save your money. We installed them on race boat and it cost us 3 MPH. If you are not running the boat real hard for hour upon hour save your money. I have a 95 29 with twins and have never had a problem in 400 plus hours.

Yea - I agree with Roger. 550 hours on the 29 Outlaw and now 357 on the 35 EX and never a problem without them. I am sure that if you are running real hard and long they have there place. Besides - my through transom exhaust is throwing water all over them any way
