Holy sh!t.
Unbelievable!!! Wow.

I must say, I find the "purchased 3rd bow filler cushion" trick most brilliant.
I'm so doing it! and I feel so humbled, lol; I came so close to figuring this out on my own over the years...! but, I did not.
:cool:

This just popped up on the Yamahajetboaters Face Book page market place. Price seems high though. I think I paid less at the dealership for a new cushion.

Wow....totally insane. Nice work! Now your boat is a floating nightclub. One item I didn't see for the stripper pole.....you need a disco ball on the tower. Sick !

Just updated the pics on the first page with three images of a cooler mod I did. Long story short.... I had to get creative with my space management and I was quickly running out room for my yeti soft sided coolers. Picked up this Yeti Back Flip to utilize the empty space on the port side that was designed to hold a trash can. Sometime next week I'll post and share some other storage mods I did to save room.

The Admiral was borderline livid when she found out the boat only came with 2 fillers. Haven’t got a 3rd yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it shows up on our doorstep.

Is the 3rd one for use as a back rest at the helm?

I paid #669 for mine. I got the Bennett M120 Trim Tabs w/EIC. EIC is nice as it displays/indicates what position they're in. And, you can hook them up so when you turn off the boat they'll fully retract. Nice... :thumbsup:
Do you have pics of your install? I’m still debating the Bennetts vs Lectrotabs; need to decide and purchase soon.

That’s the general idea. Boat came with two so you can do a sunbed or a “chair”.

Lectrotabs had a group sale, see if you can jump on that. We collectively posted lots of info on size /controller selections, and install, on 24ft yammies.

Sorry I do not, just the end result. I purchased Bennetts for my last 2 jet boats; easy to install with no issues.

Love that shore spike holder. How did you secure the clamps to the tray? Also where did you get those phone holders?

Where did you get those mesh phone holders? Totally need to put those around my bow and cockpit areas.

Man this really makes me want to drop some serious coin on my 242XE I just got. How much you think you’ve spend on stuff other then the boat so far? What else you have planned?
