    Possibly some new info on NMEA 2000 compatibility

    Nah, too much trouble all for the sake of getting limited info, which I already have on my GPS unit anyways. For some reason Yamaha does not want these connect units to distribute info to an exterior source as they do with OB motors.

    Throwing it in the garbage, it didn't work. I gave up on the idea.

    Nice back yard brother.

    Boat cover availability

    I am 6ft tall and I can not see the inside bottom of the Ebox even standing on my tip toes, so if you put it higher than mine you're going to need a step stool (pardon the fun).

    Boat cover availability

    I know this is an old thread buddy but here is how I installed mine (3/4 starboard plate) almost finished with the install.

    Hey Gary, did you replace the part yourself or did the dealer make you bring the boat in for them to replace the Connext? Thanks buddy

    As an update to this situation. For all that are recommending that I email the dealer with pictures and ask for them to order the part so I can replace it; I reached out to 3 Riva Motorsports Dealers, 2 Broward Motorsports Dealers and Jet Ski of Miami, only received 1 response, obviously did...

    Hey Live I did that, but they all said that since the entire Connext screen needs to be replaced, the warranty items have to be done by the dealer. The bracket did not break, but the plastic on the back of the Connext unit is what actually sheared off.

    Agreed, but if you know anything about this Connext unit, it is not the bracket that needs to be replaced as it is an actual part of the complete Connext Unit (see the picture) and yes I do not care for any of the 3 Yamaha dealerships here in S. Florida they all SUCK. Btw after dropping over...

    Wish I had dealers like that here in S. Florida

    I would love to do the repair myself, this is a Warranty item as the complete Connext screen needs to be replaced and Yamaha will not allow warranty items to be installed by anyone except the dealer.

    Would you buy an FSH again??

    As I said before, these may be the wrong boats to own in South Florida, not a knock on the boat itself.

    Tow the boat to the dealer, deal with the arrogant service manager, wait for Yamaha to respond, then bring the boat back and have them take their sweet time to install. It's worse than having a tooth pulled.

    Yup that's the one, hopefully they will not give me a hard time, taking the boat to the dealer is worse than getting a tooth pulled.

    Alright let's see how good you guys are. Found this on the floor under the helm behind the dash, it completely broke off.

    Would you buy an FSH again??

    Well if you notice my 2 skis are parked right behind my boat, and that's where they stayed many days. It was not always that bad, but bad enough to make it a frustrating summer. So we either buy another summer home, or another boat. I think the boat loses...LOL

    Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.....I know
  18. I know You know

    Would you buy an FSH again??

    This is the kind of crap I had to deal with last summer. Again it is not the boats fault, but it is not a South Florida boat IMO.
  19. I know You know

    Would you buy an FSH again??

    That would be me, and yes the issue is terrible. I bought the boat last summer and had a nightmare, overheating constantly and wound up having to rebuild a motor that only had 8 hours on it (to this day I think the dealer screwed me, but that's another issue altogether). These boats are not...
