First thing you should do when you get a new Yamaha jet boat. Buy these and the lateral thrusters. Much improvement over stock
The best
These could not have been easier to install. Very detailed YouTube tutorial. And the steering in reverse is night and day. Coupled with Thrust Vectors and loading the boat becomes a breeze. As well as control in idle speed no wake areas. Highly recommended.
I have a 2024 SX195. I had it out three times and was very disappointed in low speed handling. My Scarab 165HO did a lot better in reverse but still had mushiness in regular steering. I read about these enhancements and I bought both the reverse steering and the fins. I called my mechanic and he quoted $500 to install them, more than doubling what they cost. I had watched the installation videos, so I watched them again and figured I could do it myself. I am not a mechanic by any definition of the word, I work with software. The entire install for both items took me less than two hours. The videos were great and detailed, and the kit is very well engineered and fit just the way that it showed. Great job by the folks at Jet Boat Pilot, I will shop them first from now on.
It was actually surprising to see how effective this product is being so simple. I was able to turn my single engine jet-boat with ease even on a windy day.
Recommended 100%.
