YAMAHA FX Limited SVHO
Boating

YAMAHA FX Limited SVHO

The FX Limited SVHO, Yamaha's flagship WaveRunner, combines a deep-V hull with a supercharged, mega-displacement 1.8-liter Super Vortex High Output engine that pushes it beyond 65 mph. Now sheet moulding compound (SMC) returns to the hull rather than Yamaha's lighterweight, nano-engineered construction. This adds about 40 pounds but arguably improves the boat's feel, particularly in rough water.

THROTTLE AND SHIFT CABLES

Cable throttle and shift controls still dominate the boating market for outboard, inboard and sterndrive engines. Cables from brands such as Dometic Marine (previously SeaStar) and Uflex provide smooth, reliable service for years, even decades, but they might eventually wear out, corrode or otherwise lose optimal functionality. Here's what to look for when deciding on replacement throttle and shift cables for your boat.-Jim Hendricks
