so I installed cobra fins on my challenger

And man what a disappointment. I can barely if any tell they are there. Def taking them off and putting the extended ride plate back on.

Yep.

You should have asked here first. The general concusses is that they are useless on our boats. Not to mention, it just adds to something to snag in shallow water.

FYI... the Yamaha guys seem to love them. But maybe it's just that they don't want to admit that they don't like them after spending the $$.

But sorry for the situation.

I can't believe you gave up the extended ride plate for the fins. I had Aquaman put together a shorter ride plate to accommodate the fins.

On that topic, the Yamaha's had much poorer off power steering than the SeaDoo's. So the CobraJet steering and Thrust vector steering had a much more dramatic effect. Of course, the 24' 2015 models have a moving keel rudder. So they may not need them now either.

We actually noticed the different on our 20' boat and if anything, it was the placebo my wife needed to add confidence to her driving around the landing.

So, mission accomplished.

Yeah I was gonna modify my plate to work with them. But I wanted to see how they worked before I did. Glad I waited.
