I have a new in the box thrust vector XL black on black that I purchased for my 2016 Yamaha 190 FSH. Installed it on the boat tried it two times in a local river took it off and put the Cobra back on as I preferred to Cobra. Now I've sold the boat so anyone interested $90 includes shipping

Not trying to be a jerk or whatever, but you may want to post this in the classified section. Ask an admin they can probably just move it for you. Might get more traction there, as anyone with a 19’ could use it.

What was it about the cobra that made you like it more?

First of all the construction of the Cobra is far superior, being made of aluminium. The Cobra is a fixed system meaning it does not retract under power like the TV does. That has pros and cons. The pros are with that design the Cobra almost serves as a trim tab, allowing the boat to use the flat portion of the cobra to help reduce any porpoising at speed. It also does not spray water on the swim platform like the TV. On the con side , being it does not retract it causes a bit of a heaving feeling in the steering in turns. So if your out pulling the kids on a tube it takes a bit more effort to turn the wheel. Now with that said it also causes the boat to track nice and straight under power as well. I could cruise at about 26mph and take my hand off the wheel and she would stay on a pretty straight line. I also thought it was superior in reverse also. However not a 100% on that as I only made two trips with the TV and wind certainly could have been an issue there. All in all both provide a huge improvement. I went with Cobras on my new 210 as well. Hope this helps
