[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 227671, member: 6937"] Yes, that's the area I was referring to (your last photo with the circled areas) In the pics with the pump installed, that area appears to be stepped up from the pump. Also, those areas you have circled could cause turbulence, but if you have the pump flush with the bottom of the boat, it wouldn't be as severe. That step in the transition between the hull and the body of the pump, combined with the peak and valleys that you show in the circled area....would definitely be the primary suspect for cavitation. The longitudinal strakes to the outside of the pump would cause turbulence behind the strakes, as well as on the leading edge, but that is not in front of the pump intake, so it would have no effect on the pump's performance.
