Guest, we are pleased to announce that Hydrophase Ridesteady is offering an extra $100 off for JETBOATERS.NET members on any Ridesteady for Yamaha Speed Control system purchased through March 7th, 2025. Ridesteady is a speed control system (“cruise control”) that uses GPS satellites or engine RPM to keep your boat at the set speed you choose. On twin engine boats, it will also automatically synchronize your engines.
I won't be home for a few days but I'd be willing to uncover the boat and measure for you when I get home Tuesday. Just send me a PM Tuesday to remind me. Unless somebody else already knows or can get the info sooner.
@tonschaa Should be the same as my 07 AR230 i believe, on this thread. But I dont know what boat you have, your info indicated boatless and 242, confused.
Mine is a little different than the mounts in your link. I used a piece of 2" s. s. tubing 29" long. It slips into the existing table leg and makes the grille higher on the swim platform. And then I used the Magma powergrip levelock mount https://www.westmarine.com/buy/magm...ocking-rod-holder-mount--9590415?recordNum=78 because we use the long leg for the table in the cockpit and the short leg for the grille out back. The 2" s. s. TUBING was easy for me to find. It is common around dairy farms with 2" milk pipelines. https://jetboaters.net/media/swim-platform-grill-stand.4118/
OK, good idea and looks very neat! Just to be sure; What means S.S. after 2 inch? We use different metrics . My tube is 6cm or 2,36 inch in diameter.
And the Powergrip is tight/secure in this way?
S.S. is stainless steel. Measure the inside diameter of your tube, it should be just over 50.8 mm, because my dairy tubing has an outside diameter of 50.8 mm or 2" . Whatever slip fits into the factory leg without wobbling around.
