Yes--Yamaha jet boat engines are highly reliable. They come with several features that make them easy to control and dock. For example, they have a wheel-mounted paddle stem that engages forward and reverses on both engines for precise control when docking. Plus, they come with a comprehensive 12.3" touchscreen MFD display that gives you complete control over all systems, including the Wet Sounds seven-speaker system. So if you're looking for a heavy-duty jet boat engine perfect for shallow water conditions, Yamaha has you covered!
