    Really weird issue need help. Engines overheating randomly Yamaha/Dealer says it’s not happening

    Why would you turn off a engine. We have jets. Not like you are going to get chopped to pieces. I have never turn off engines with a downed wakeboarder or tuber.

    Really weird issue need help. Engines overheating randomly Yamaha/Dealer says it’s not happening

    I had this happen from day one with my 2014 sx210. It would go into limp mode on one engine or the other. Could be a hour or two or in the first 10 minutes of boating. They changed all the sensors on the boat many times. For the first year i had boat 6 months of it, it was at the dealer for...

    Do you carry a firearm aboard your boat?

    Being in FL more for the wildlife then people defense. We wakeboard in a narrow at times river. Gators are what I worry about when boating.

    TSA Pre Check?

    I fly almost every week and couldn't live with out TSA -Pre check. If you travel to the major airports also get Clear(Costly). That helps greatly at the big airports. Puts you in front of the TSa pre line.

    Yes, a ribbon delete post...but for the install, not the worthiness.

    I was looking at the throttle bodies. All the same. Geez the spacers and what they call them are different on certain years with same throttle bodies.

    The 2015 and 2016 17 all have same engines. I checked they have same throttle body back to 2012 and i quit looking, so probably all 1.8's are the same parts. Weird they would have different blots on same throttle bodies.

    I just did this on my 2015. I did not do the snorkel delete. I will this weekend. I had 6 people in the boat and didn't notice any difference after delete RPM wise. Will see what happens when I go out again. It was very simple my son did it in about 15 min for both engines. We used power...

    Sirius XM on Connext for 2016 242 Limited S

    Wasn't that easy running my speaker wires on my 2015 tower. Wonder why switched the radio unit to the rear instead of helm like past years. Took 2 secs to hook it there. Run antenna next to GPS done.

    Bouncy Shoreland'r Trailer? Carlisle Stands Behind Their Product

    Got the new fenders and tires on from dealer. They do not rattle at all like the old ones did. Not sure if that's from the radials or fender design. But like.

    Rental truck

    Avis has quite a few with tow hitches. Just rented a qx80 Infinity and towed a trailer with it. Put about 4000 miles on it. Hitch is under the cover. Think it is pretty standard on the higher end rentals as they are usually maxed out loaded for resale.

    Adding XM to my 242 S

    I just cut a small slit in the GPS puck for XM wire to sit next to it and ran a small bead of silicone around hole under GPS to seal it up. Sits flush and looks good. And now is water tight. There is nothing to stop water from getting in under the factory GPS puck.
