The missing cav plate will not give you the tail. The Number Six has a large cav plate. It is the surfacing prop that causes the spray. Most bravo setups the prop centerline is well below the hull bottom. I am running the propshaft 2.5" above the bottom of the hull. At speed most of the prop is out of the water.

I had a picture of the roostertail, where you could actually see the top blade of the prop coming out of the water. I think it's on a disc I can't open anymore.
Here's short video of the Kaama's.
