Re: Yahama JetBoat Issue???
i got no experience with yer boat man. i do have a yamaha pwc. very easy to control. think of it backwards. if ya want the stern to go port, turn starboard. visa versa the other way, in reverse. think about whats happenin with the jet stream when the grate is down. how it will be diveted. a pwc only has fwd or rev. i use reverse only at idle, very little throttle. i also use the reverse lever improper. i hold it in the middle for neutral. would recon you have a neutral position. (water being diverted straght down)i can stay stationary doing this or spin a 360 in the same spot. practice for sure. if ya go twin power ya can use that to yer advantage too. one fwd, one rev. should spin at that point.....<br />hope that helps, i know everyone says jetboats are hard to steer at low speeds. i have not found that to be perticularly true with my pwc(a small jetboat, @ 11'). perhaps thats the way is though. i've heard some jets are just impossible to deal with at low speeds..... practice seems like a good idea....
