New jet owner (oh)

[jetfisher]

Hey all, I jumped on the jet wagon a little over a week ago. I joined here even before I bought the boat. The wife and I just got a Yamaha 190 FSH sport. Its my first jet, I have had prop boats prior from a 12 foot aluminum to a 24 foot cabin boat then a 14 foot boston whaler. The times we have gotten to take this boat out have been great days. Break in was rough to get thru as the lake was flat and i was ready to get going.
Ive added a few rod holders to the t-top, a flush mount gps/fish finder, dash organizer and thrust vectors are on order and a porti pot in the console. Each trip is enjoyable. Glad I found this page as I was beginning my search. Thanks all.

Nice looking boat!

Can you post more about your flush mount electronics and your future porti pot? I'm almost positive I'll be pulling the trigger on this same boat here in FL, tomorrow.

btw, Avon Lake is a beautiful spot. I have extended family in that area and have been there a few times.

@Swimmingly , I'll have to take some of the porti pot install. Pretty simple actually. Only thing is I added some height to it. I felt the one the dealer said was only one that would work was too low. Should have taken it and exchanged it But I didn't feel like the 1 1/2 hr drive. I mounted it to a piece of starboard. I mounted two pieces of this new fangled plastic lumber to the boat then the starboard to that. Raised it up 2 inches. The hook 7 unit turned out very nice on the dash. I also included a shot of the LEDs i mounted also.

Boat looks great. Curious to see how it handles lake Erie. Did a lot of boating in the Sandusky area last three years. Enjoy!

I really like that boat. When I retire I'm getting one.
