    Sportjet 90 problem that I can't solve

    if it had a propeller, would instantly tell you way wrong pitch (been thru that before)... with jet drive, it will usually give you indicators, but maybe check the impellor pitch because you've literally replaced everything else

    Do you make people take their shoes off before getting in you boat?

    the only problem we have is coming in to a dock/marina they grab their shoes and start putting them on in the boat, and i play dad "get them shoes off!!" lol defeats the purpose of taking them off in the first place

    Do you make people take their shoes off before getting in you boat?

    We just make it very very clear.... take your shoes off on the back deck. People are just not aware of how much crap is on their shoes or what it does to carpet and upholstery. Boat carpet and seats are generally very very light in color so they dont absorb heat and become 8000 degrees. makes...

    2012 242 Limited S starboard engine will only start when the engine is cold

    worn out starter..... The click is the starter bendix engaging/moving but due to heat the starter motor itself cant flow enough current to "turn over" ..... OR power cable to starter motor corroded big time (but usually this isnt a hot cold dependent problem). Due your diligence first, check...

    The tower doesn’t fold per se... you unscrew the back tower bolts and it tilts forward. There are two brackets you screw the tower bolts in to hold the down position. But I have no clue what clearance is down. I do know clearance with tower up is 11’ 8”. My shop door is 12’, 4” to spare. Lol

    Completed 2014 Yamaha 242 Limited S in Maple Red ($39k O.K.)

    need to move this boat by the end of December... my loss your gain... ive been watching the market big time, $39 for this boat is very reasonable. You see listings for way higher, but we all know thats not what they are selling for. Make a reasonable offer, worst that can happen is I say no.

    Help! First time jet boat buyer

    as long as your sacrificial anodes are in good shape and kept in good shape, the salt water vs aluminium issue isnt as huge as people think because the salt water isnt "eating" or "dissolving" the aluminium per se. Salt water causes the "corrosion" of aluminum by facilitating the creation of...
