Guest, we are pleased to announce that Hydrophase Ridesteady is offering an extra $100 off for JETBOATERS.NET members on any Ridesteady for Yamaha Speed Control system purchased through March 7th, 2025. Ridesteady is a speed control system (“cruise control”) that uses GPS satellites or engine RPM to keep your boat at the set speed you choose. On twin engine boats, it will also automatically synchronize your engines.
Like the title suggests. Many of the pictures on the threads are not showing up for me. I'm wondering if anyone might have an idea why this is happening.
What I have found is this happens sometimes when someone copies and pastes a photo into the thread versus uploading it. I have not figured out yet what defines who can see it and who cannot.
Yup....some people will link to their photobucket share, and then they stop using photobucket so we get cut off from their images. When you upload to the site it autoscales the images, so we would prefer you upload IMAGES to the site. For videos, we recommend you use a video host like Youtube as they cost us more in space and bandwidth to host. When uploading, we would prefer you upload your images 1024x768 (roughly) as they will upload faster and not need scaling.
Also, don't forget you can drag and drop images if you are using a PC (browser support dependent)
