We bought a brand new 2017 model 2 weeks ago...a couple newbie mistakes later ... week one sucke up the rope into the port engine. Done at idle and didn’t ruin anything!

Week 2, wakeboard rope got caught on Bimini top and tore it. Need to get it replaced. Can I get this through scarab? It’s just the canvas... are should I go through a canvas specialist company?

Also, anyone have experience with the jet boat pilot.com thrust vectors?

I bought a set of Thrust Vectors at the beginning of the Season and I am very impressed with them .They really do help out with low speed maneuverability. I recommend them .

Do the Thrust Vectors interfere with the jets at high speeds? Do you notice them when you are at WOT?

I have not noticed any negative affects at high-speed. They are designed to lift out of the water as you progressively increase speed.
