People here seem to reuse the o-ring without consequence. Just check it over to ensure it is uniformly round with no nicks or cuts, also pick up some o-ring lubricant (Parker Super O-Lube) if it is not lubricated well. Helps with install so you do not roll it during cone install.

Lucky13 on its way! Can't wait to get this puppy on my 190! My thanks goes out to Jerry @Green Hulk for a great deal.

I’m wondering the same. Lotta money to experiment with !

Any benefit to using the L13 comes in a 210 with the TR-1 engines? Everything I’ve seen is people running these with the 1.8L. Most interested in improving fuel efficiency at cruising speeds (~25-28mph) and top speed.

Is this discount still valid?

Dammit!! I just bought one last week and installed it. Day late and a dollar short, lol. Its a great product for dam sure. Every yamaha boat should have these by default!!

@S1LV3R4D0 ......you've had your cone for awhile now. Do you still recommend it? What setting (ring mm) would you recommend if most of my RPMs fall in the 5200 range. My engine and hull are very similar, if not identical to yours, as I have a 2020 Yamaha SX195. Thanks!

 

[S1LV3R4D0]

As long as you are not at any high elevation, yes i still recommend all 3 rings @Canuckjetboater. Im not a speedster so the top end doesn't bother me much. But zero issues with cavitation getting wakeboarders up and pulling tubes.

@Canuckjetboater I'm on my 3rd season now. Been running all 3 spacers until a few outings ago. I dropped the red spacer.

99% certain I'll putting even MORE spacers back in there. Definitely going to put the red one back before my next outing as well. Cavitation on turns got worse with fewer spacers.

You have a larger pump (160mm) compared to my smaller pump (155mm), and my understanding is that the 160's don't cavitate as badly as the 155's do. SO, your mileage might vary. I would start with all 3, give it a few hours of usage, then start pulling them out again until you have unsatisfactory cavitation, and go back one step. Make sense?

@S1LV3R4D0 and @2kwik4u .....thank you very much for the prompt informative responses. Very insightful and helpful! Cheers!

Has anybody thought to try 2 blue spacers and 1 yellow for 11mm of spacing instead of 12 with the red?

I am just wondering if 11mm instead of 9 (by dropping the yellow) might keep the rpms and the cavitation elimination?

or just 2 reds for 10mm even?

Hi guys, I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jerry Gaddis and I own the PWC Performance Forum GreenHulk.net and the Performance store, GreenHulkStore.com

I am a retailer of the Lucky 13 adjustable pump cone and I wanted to tell you guys a little more about this product. One of the forum members here, Swatski, has done extensive testing on his boat with this cone and has shared lots of valuable information about it here on this thread

https://jetboaters.net/threads/lucky-13-l13-anti-cavitation-cone-install-2016-ar240.12099/

These cones work amazingly well on the Yamaha skis and of course the Yamaha Jet Boats. These cones work well to prevent cavitation, especially when at full ballast and pulling skiers. They are also tunable by simply adding or removing spacer washers this way you can fine tune the cone for your boats weight and normal capacity.

Here's a short video I made telling a little about the cone.

There is quite a bit of interest on this cone lately so I have agreed to give the Yamaha Jet Boaters members a $40 discount off of each cone. To get the discount, leave a note in the comments box of your order saying "$40 discount per cone, per Jerry" and we will immediately refund you the discounted price once the order comes through.

Those with Naturally aspirated boats will use this cone
