Reversing bucket

[Cadillac68]

hi all, has anyone had the reversing bucket break off their boat whilst doing aggressive turns?

Never heard that happening, we even have members who throw it in reverse at 30mph to throw water over the bow with no ill effects (other than a wet interior)

Yes that sounds a little odd!

@Cadillac68 sorry I just noticed you have a Scarab, I was speaking more towards Yamaha's but the few Scarab members we have also have not mentioned any issues, aren't those buckets also used on the seadoo pwc's ?? for a bigger sample size, you don't hear about them having a problem

Yeah it's a scarab men...very frustrating as I had a mate who had a Seadoo many years ago and did 180's 360's the lot and never had an issue - that's why I bought this boat and I've had the bucket break off twice
