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.
Been having ladder sticking problems for a couple years now. Been doing what I can with a filer to grind the slide rail which helps for about a month or so each time. However, the location and angle makes it difficult to grind.
My Question: If I unbolt the brackets (bolted to the hull) are these self tapped bolts or is there a nut on the other side that I need to worry about?
The bolts on mine seem bent and it angles under the boat a bit, which is awkward. I am curious if any of the ones they currently list could work. I’ll have to look into it deeper sometime.
