Pocket or No Pocket?

[Logan9581]

Has anyone run a boat with pockets for the props and shaft? Wondering how you liked it. I know they have a shallower draft and are faster but I have heard some of some cavation problems. Any thoughts on from anyone that has run them?
Here's a pic to help:

i have them on my little boat- but had problems with weird ass acoustic noises when i tried running a 4 blade wheel. other than that- like it. nice hat mike- never seen sevens on sportfishers, only destroyers,lol

Any differences in backing down or maneuvering at the dock? Those 7s look like you got'em off a torpedo!

thankx, those wheels are the secret to that boat, and to the pockets.

I never had any issues with my old 35 Cabo. That boat was a dream to run.
I could back that boat into a slip only a foot wider than the boat with no problem. For trolling, it created really nice trolling lanes.

I have them on my 36' sea ray. Very easy backing and the trolling lanes comment was dead on.
