ezdrive rear thrusters on a Yamaha jet boat

[Fred Schubert]

Has anyone installed the product brand ezdrivethruster / rear thrusters to a Yamaha wake boat yet? I know boat pilot make a specific jet thruster kit, we are just looking at other options out there. We live on a very windy lake and this makes docking for gas and setting a clean delivery into our lift very difficult.
Thanks!!

Starting at $4999! WOW. If I owned a $280,000 Super Air Nautique, that may be a nice option. But when lateral thrusters are a fraction of that cost, I don't see them as a cost effective solution. Especially when LT's work so well.

If you have the budget, I know those work. But I have never seen them installed on a Yamaha.

Thanks for the input. Yes, they are very $$, that's why I'm trying to see if any Yamaha owner has tried them out yet. JetPilot makes a very cost effective add on that may work.

After using them for a few years, yes, they work very well. There is nothing else that will give you reverse control like the LT's. They are pretty much doing what this other device is claiming without the need for all that equipment. When you install them, you will see how simple the design is, and it will make sense.

Thats great, and at that price is worth getting them on and trying. Thanks again!!

and any fin setup would help too

That's a pricey item for sure just for getting gas and docking. I'm still stock and we have big winds but I just learned to deal with it and have become a better pilot.

Good Luck!

They are the only ones that make them. It’s a patented design
