    Garmin Striker install ?

    Yes this spot has worked well for me. Like I said I use the tachometer for the twin engine more then the speedometer.

    Yamaha sure doesn't want you to have fun on these boats :D

    I am a Yamaha fan. I have a Yamaha motorcycle as well. That being said I completely debadge both almost as soon as I got them.

    How old is everyone?

    54 and hitting it 285+ off the tee. Can't wait for 55 to move to the seniors tee box. Oh this is the wrong forum. Anyway, feel good at 54 and thrilled with my first boat. I'm looking for many more boating years and golf.

    Do you trailer your boat or have a slip?

    I may be late to this post but it has been very interesting. I dry stack my boat. Indoors all the time when I not using it keeps it cleaner. I call ahead and it's in the water when I get there. When I'm done, I pull up to the dock, put the cover on and they put it I my spot until I come back. My...

    And we're off!

    I must say I'm a bit jealous. I painted the laundry room. I have a few more home things to complete, then I'm ready for some water time. What lake are you on in NC. I not sure where Spout Springs NC is located.

    2016 AR240 Cobra fins - Magnum AK w/ Fangs - install and first impressions, plus EZ locks refresher

    Install my cobra jet system this month. I had the boat in the water for about an hour. Mostly to check on some overheating issue. With those resolved. I had a chance just to make a quick run and I think they will be making a huge difference in the control of the boat.

    Will Yamaha make the boats faster over the coming years? Thoughts?

    I'm pretty sure I don't want to go over 50 in my jet boat. I love my 21' boat but way to light for rough chop.

    212x Maiden Voyage

    Yes, sweet docking spot. Some day to have my boat in my back yard.

    Over heating warning

    Over heating update. Today I checked out the clean out ports and the impellers. They looked all clear. So I put the boat in the water and check to see if the water was flowing thru the discharge ports on the side. One flowed a little slow at first then both were flowing equally. So after 15 or...

    Over heating warning

    I'm finding lots of good help here. I can't get back to the boat until midweek to start some investigating. I'm hoping its just a blockage in the intake. Maybe a bird nest. The boat was dry stacked on the top rack. Next to the roof. This may have happened to some other guys at the same marina...

    Garmin Striker install ?

    Installed the Garmin Echomap 42 ( no transducer ). Not a lot of flat places to install the mount. So it went in front of the speedometer. With the twin engine tack it seems I pay more attention to them then the actual speed the of the boat. I can see the speedometer if I remove the unit. I...

    Over heating warning

    That is a very good video. Very informative. The boat has never been is salt water. I was unable to get under the boat today. I hope it's just a visual blockage. But I don't know.
