I have both the TV and LT and love it. Wife has been learning how to drive the boat and since getting both she has been more confident at slow speeds where she wasn't prior. The LT's made a great addition for control around the dock. Yes, you can use the twin engines to do similar maneuvers but the LT's make it easier.Does anyone have Thrust and lateral vectors?
How do they work for your boat ?
I do have the cobra vectors on my boat now
Thoughts ??
Enhanced steering is a good idea for everyone. Do your research between both brands and make your choice.Are thrust vectors a good idea for new boaters? I have a Yamaha FSH195 Sport. Haven’t gotten it on the water yet!
Not brand new from factory.I’ve just learned the FSH 195 comes with vectors
Your probably confusing the articulating keel for aftermarket steering fins.I’ve just learned the FSH 195 comes with vectors
Ah yes. They did call it a keel in a video I saw. With that said, are vectors still necessary? Sounded like maneuverability with the keel was goodYour probably confusing the articulating keel for aftermarket steering fins.
Learn to drive the boat as is first. Then if you want better control do your research and go with the solution that fits your needs. Cobra's are made of aluminum and provide the most control at slow speed and high speeds. Thrust Vectors are plastic and only provide more control at slow speeds.Ah yes.
