Height of jet foot compared to boat

[Akboater97]

I’ve seen tons of info about wanting the jet foot to be lined up just higher than the bottom of the jon boat but mine is just lower. I see it has some performance downsides but will it effect how shallow of water I can go in while on plane and trimmed up a little? I really don’t want to raise it up and would rather just leave it since it’s my starter boat to get into jet boating and I don’t care if I loose a little power but I do care if I’m going to damage the jet by going into shallow water.
Thanks!

It’s showing the top of the foot is about a 1/4 inch below the bottom of the boat. I’ll post a better photo today

Thats a good all purpose setting. Unless the water you go into is really skinny I would leave it be.

Ideally your ride plate would be level and jet nozzle just above…I’d imagine.
