    Gen1 vs Gen2 190 FSH

    They did fix some of the nagging issues, but if the gen 1 owner did all the fixes, I think the gen 1 has some great features that were “value engineered” in the later model. Love the jump seats, vinyl bolsters, etc. The JBP steering mods are awesome. Difference in low speed maneuvering is what...

    FSH Transducer mounting option

    Yes, all worked great. Some bubbles when coming off plane in hard deceleration. Just for a couple of seconds though. I recommend it. I tapped into the bottom as you can see. Filled all holes with marine caulk. Nice groove to run the wire. Maybe the newer transducers are smaller. Even better...

    @Grover70 You sold your boat? Did you get another one?

    New 2019 FSH

    I like my 2016 the best. Vinyl bolsters, flip up seats. I think some of the new design stuff is to save Yamaha money. Is it just me, or did they rework the Fiberglass on the swim deck/transom? It seems to have different lines...

    Dual battery....opposite situation of Tonka.....HELP

    Yes, batteries should be identical since they will be paralleled during charging or emergency paralleled. Deep cycles can start our engines without any issues.

    Water leaking from stbd motor!

    https://jetboaters.net/threads/pics-white-factory-overspray-in-engine-bay-qc-repairs.11748/#post-202218 Here was my epic experience with Yamaha customer service. Thankfully I found a good dealer in the end that took care of me.

    Water leaking from stbd motor!

    X2 If they are agreeing to make the necessary repairs and do them the right way then that is good news. I would keep documenting your entire experience here, but would keep expectations realistic. Professionalism on your behalf goes a long way with the dealer. I would give them the benefit of...

    Water leaking from stbd motor!

    I feel your pain man. My boat is as in the shop for 2 months... but you know what, I got it back better than new. I picked out everything I didn’t like and it all got fixed while it was there. Thankfully you have a warranty. If you bitch enough to Yamaha customer service, they will throw you a...

    Launching and Loading FSH 190

    I know this might sound kinda obvious, but make sure your steering wheel is straight. Just a little off will make things more difficult. Also, you can manipulate the reverse rpm higher by using the no wake button in reverse. This topic has been covered a lot. see here...

    Water entering through clean out

    Be grateful that they didn’t silicone it and give you a false sense of security... Their silicone is absolutely worthless and does not stick to anything anyways. I know man, it’s BS... Funny how something so small in the scale of building a boat can be such a fatal error. We are talking...

    Awesome RESALE Value!

    $20k huh? Wow. It all depends on the local market too. Guess I'll just stay a happy owner.

    Awesome RESALE Value!

    I thought I'd wake up an old thread here... So how have resale values been? I saw a $2k rebate for the 190 FSH. Thats a bummer for resale.
