    Completed Houston Tx Area 2017 242 Limited S E-Series for sale - $55K

    Hey team, I am selling my 242 LS-E due to a recent move to a dedicated wake / surf boat (2105 Malibu 23 LSV, grandkids hitting the prime age) and I don’t need two tow boats. We have loved the Yamaha and will miss certain of the great features - massive bimini, great back deck and overall near...

    Cover for 2017 242 Series E Bimini

    Not a bad idea but we already have a pretty good time commitment with clean-up and other cover. It also leaves the structure, photocells (which I care nothing about) and other stuff exposed. Was hoping for a quick elastic band set-up. Will probably just get one made. Thanks

    Cover for 2017 242 Series E Bimini

    Bump - still looking for source for Bimini cover. Would love one for 242 and FSH. They are under a roof at dock and Yamaha cover does great job on boat but tops get dust, pollen and bugs. Any ideas?

    Cover for 2017 242 Series E Bimini

    I have a 2017 242 Series E with the large Bimini and solar chargers. I keep the boat in a slip at my dock on Lake Livingston and cover the boat with a Yamaha cover. The bimini is uncovered with this set-up (although under a roof) and gets a pretty good coating of bugs and spider blessings...

    Glitchy Lowrance Elite Ti

    Also, still getting a signal but it is "glitchy"

    Glitchy Lowrance Elite Ti

    Thanks for the questions. The problem usually occurs after moving and resolves by re-seating or jiggling the wires. The transducer is mounted outside the hull.

    Thrust Vectors - Changed my mind

    @Liveto99 - Bought my Sport Cover a couple of months ago. Works very nicely but does not cover over Bimini, just like rest of Bimini boats.

    Glitchy Lowrance Elite Ti

    Hey team, New install of Lowrance Elite Ti 9 inch on my FSH 210 and having some intermittent connection problems. This is my second boat with this install and no problems on first one. The signal will get intermittent after a run on the lake or hitting bumps. Most of the time it is solved...

    Thrust Vectors - Changed my mind

    At the end of the day, there is no perfect solution but these products all provide some very solid improvements in handling and usability of our boats. In my experience with both, the Cobra's are great for enhancing the underway stability and helping off throttle steering (which approaches...

    Video - 210 FSH - Cobra Jet Steering Magnum AK with Fangs Test

    Foobar, Is your 50 top speed speedo or GPS? Seems a little high based on other boats. Thanks for all the work.

    Swapped out Thrust Vector XV for Cobrajet fins...opinions

    Great thread and lots of entertainment as usual. I actually have Cobra's on my 24 and TV's on my FSH 21. I really like the way the 21 performs and handles and did not feel the need for additional help / tracking at speed. I also wanted to try out the thrusters - installed but not tested -...

    Video - 210 FSH - JBP Steering Tests

    @JetBoatPilot - Will, at what speed do the thrust vectors drop down into the stream? I would think it would have had some impact at the lower speed?

    210 FSH Sport - Bought today! :p

    Foobar - great looking boat and congratulations on your new ride. I am looking forward to starting the mods on mine as soon as we get a little warmer weather and JBP catches up on demand - thrusters, Seadek and console currently on backorder. We are getting a very small taste of northern...

    Yamaha Suggested Anchor Locker Repair

    Big question here - found water level with the hole in the hull????? How is that possible with all of the info we have seen on this issue. We know the water will drain through to the forward locker and to the bilge - or do we? Could it be that Yamaha tried to fix the problem by sealing around...
