Welcome @EdTheUte glad you found us. Imho I'd get some kind of clean out plug safety device in place. As far as fins, it's really a personal preference kind of thing.

Thanks for that i was surprised at the response i thought you guys would be bored with it but quite the opposite pleased your enjoying it.
I must admit - I was only using yamahajetboters.com sence buying my first jet boat in 2013. Then researching the 2015 changes to the Yamaha 24 footers I came across this site. That lead to me buying a new boat :). Then needing to sell my 2013 AR240. But with all that boat talk - I have found all the other topics to be interesting and really enjoy the site's layout. Great job to all those involved!

Keep an eye out for Jason and Josh. Brothers that own a 242 Limited...... Met them at Saguaro lake last week and gave them the jetboaters.net info. Said they might join here!

They had gravel stuck in their right nozzle-gate effectively freezing it and making the right engine unusable . Cleared it for them so hoping they will join here!

Welcome @April! Sorry for your issue. If you click on "Forum" above, it will take you to the Home page. Find the Topic that best fits your boat and click on that. Then to the right of the screen, you see something like "Start New Thread" or similar. You should get a much bigger response there. Good luck.
