Thank you, Jeff, I got these recently for that crazy price of yours!

These fins made a change in handling that was beyond what I anticipated.

I really only got them for my wife and friends as I've been somewhat annoyed with the spinning in circles business. What I did not think about, they can be set to stay down while on plane. THAT makes a boat feel more planted in turns. Of course you will never confuse it with the feel of your outboard, but still - it is a substantial change, and I really like it! Makes a positive difference for skiing/wakeboarding.

Thank you @swatski
We all know the jet steering issues with slow speed handling and maneuvering in tight spaces or in traffic, trying to recover from being pushed around by other boats wakes or the wind and current or all of them at once. The annoying constant back and forth motion of the steering wheel in no wake modes.
Another big issue with jet steering alone is the boats spinning out when the thrust is cut off especially in a turn or the need rapidly reduce your speed and turn at the same time to avoid a collision or other emergency situation. No thrust = no steering.
In a test of off power handling, we set the ultimate system to the same setting you show in your picture, we took a 24 foot Yamaha to top speed and cut the throttles to neutral and then we made a quick right turn, the boat responded immediately, we then made a quick left turn and the boat continued to respond immediately. " try it some time with your boat and see for yourself" The boat owner didn't believe it would make the second opposite turn and when it did his jaw dropped in amazement. Another void is the lack of feedback in the steering wheel with only a jet for steering.
The Ultimate system can provide you with steering feedback for a more confident feeling at the helm, more on the line of a conventional boat .
We also realized that everyone has a different opinion of what they want in added steering, so we made these adjustable and selectable, so the Ultimate steering not only puts you in control of the boat it puts you in control of the steering systems function and effect.
Providing you with the versatility of several different systems combined in one to allow you the ability to customize the settings and accommodate you if your preferences change you simply change the systems function or settings to better meet your needs.
This system also works on the new single engine keel setup providing more steering control by adding it to your existing single keel or just replacing the fixed keel with this spring loaded Ultimate system to provide you with steering assistance at all speeds without the concern of a fixed rudder striking the ground in shallow water or while anchored at the beach.
Similarly you can use the twin engine ultimate system on your 24 foot keel boat by simply removing the fixed keel and tie rod all together or you can add the adjustable Magnum A K system that adds extra fins and a very important extra tie rod to balance out the existing rudder system , the Magnum A K series is also included in this sale thanks to britboater. Remember if you have questions feel free to email me or pm me .
