    Yamaha Wakeboard Rack Handle ?

    Well it turns out that the one handle I did have was lost by the Misses who freaked out over a spider as she was using it and of course it fell into the depths of the lake. Anyone had any luck locating a replacement or know the thread size? I see some on Grainger that look promising but I'd need...

    lost seat..

    I was thinking the same but, Its just nice for when we have alot of adults on board to be able to sit there, comfortably. However, most of our outings are swim/tubing fun with the kids and I end up removing it anyhow.. What is a good brand of decking to use there?

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    I came in with a full tank and only got 20 gallons on the water. It was around $3.25 per gal.

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    Just wanted to mention, we attempted to access Bridal Caves by boat and the state park folks said there is no longer access. We double checked and called Bridal Caves and they confirmed the trail leading to Bridal Caves from the water access has been closed off.

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    I highly recommend making a run to the State Park and docking there -Nice, peaceful place to relax and explore and let the kids swim at thier beach. Bring some charcoal and have lunch. Be sure to keep close eye on your fuel levels in the boat and plan accordingly. We had to refuel on the way...

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    So, we got back last Saturday and miss it already! We couldn't believe the scenery and how warm the water was. The water was always 85+ degrees. Although we had to dodge a lot of the rainy weather, we still had a blast. Thanks for all your recommendations, it helped a great deal! I wish we were...

    Why would I cancel based off a fictional TV series and I'm certainly not laundering money for any Mexican cartels..

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    Thank you and it was an honor to serve in the Navy - we appreciate the support! I'm very familiar with watersports and plan to bring a wake board and tube. This is our first Jetboat and I have a cousin with one who tells me the horror stories of "sucking up the rope". The kids are 13, 7, and...

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    Thanks! We are staying at a place on the downing branch cove. Near Four seasons. We are going to visit the caverns nearby and if we can swing it, we may hit Big surf.

    Thanks all for the help. Today, I was able to remove the spring loaded handle on the port side and now keep it removed to use on both.

    First Boat trip... Lake of the Ozarks bound!

    So we had already planned to take next week off but couldn't decide on where to go.. Then we found a nice AirBnB at Lake of the Ozarks. Well, now that turned into an Airbnb on the lake with a private dock for the boat. This will be our first time hauling this boat for an 8 hour drive. I've...

    Yamaha Wakeboard Rack Handle ?

    I've been looking for prints like these for about 3 weeks now thanks!! I see why - looks like the 242X comes with the swivel racks that were added to my AR240. Ouch, 60 bucks! I'm gonna go measure it. Although I think its bigger than 3/8. I'm assuming since its Yanaha it will be metric anyhow.
