I suspect not. That would be the 'normal' way to do it.

Russ told me that once they get the orders in, they are going to have them fab'd all at once. Apparently it is a custom job, so they will get a break getting them all done at once. So he is sending them out for fab about now... Hopefully they will still be able to make the parts with all of the shutdowns. I'm hanging loose, myself.

Are they not pulling the $$$ till they ship?? I have not seen it hit my bank yet.
The person I spoke with told me that I wouldn't be charged until they actually ship. They are hoping for mid-April ship date.

For those that had to have someone install these what did you pay? No way I can do this myself.
Tools required: Hole Punch, 3" Drill bit, Chisel, 5lb sledge hammer

Consumables: WD-40, Bailing Wire, Duct Tape, 2 five-gallon buckets of Flex-Seal (white if possible but don't get picky) ;)

Seriously though, I'd talk to other boaters in your area and see if you can get a recommendation for a good shop. It doesn't have to be a Yamaha dealer, they just should be a place that's known for being good at any kind of below-the-waterline installations.

The Caveat here is that if they are good they will probably be very busy and it will probably take a while to get in.

Looks like mine's arriving tomorrow - just in time as my marina just opened back up (in a limited capacity) so I can get the boat on a rack. Got too many projects to work on before these tabs though unfortunately...

Just got mine in today, super quick. Plates feel beefy and although the hinges have a bit of play, I’m sure they’ll firm up once they’re triangulated with the actuators. Only hiccup was that I got an MLC controller instead of the SLC I ordered, but a quick call to Russ and the correct one is on the way. In theory if I was installing today I could still mount everything up except that, which would be a quick wrap up.

Lets see those install photos! Perhaps someone do a nice write up from start to finish?
@Julian should i do a video of me dropping it off at the marina, and picking it back up? Would that count as a write up?

I am planning on doing an install video for the 190, as soon as I can rescue the boat from storage.

Got my UPS shipping notice today. Will be here Friday (maybe, pending COVID19 shipping delays).
