Does anyone have a recent experience on how long Yamaha has taken to deliver Helm Master components? I added the system to my 895 Sport order in March of last year, in December the boat was delivered without Helm Master and I have been waiting for the parts to arrive so that they can be installed. Info from the dealer is pretty much we'll call you when it gets here.

I am hoping for an update later this week. What parts are you waiting for? |

Pretty much all of the Helm Master components. I don't know if the dealer has some of the parts yet but obviously until they all arrive it can't be installed.

My Yamaha dealers intends to come down to look at the boat to plan the install this week. He said some of the parts like joystick and switch panel could be installed and not connected to save time. I will post when I know what parts are delayed. |

I hope we are not experiencing the same delays over in the UK because like you I am still waiting for the last parts. The dealer has contacted Yamaha who said they were on the way currently but that was the same reply 2 weeks ago.

All my parts have now arrived from Yamaha, so must have stock in some locations. |

Still waiting on the parts so far. Checked in with the tech last week who had no info, he's been the most helpful so far. The actual dealer ( Sundance ) has been silent other than him. Thinking it may be the steering actuators that may be back ordered , do your motors have the bolt on actuators or the built in version ? Glad to hear your parts arrived, hopefully a good sign on deliveries on this side of the pond.

Hi mjbwa My actuators will be bolt on being a 2022 models, as I am pretty sure the built in ones didn't even become a thing until this year and I was told the UK won't see them on boats until 2024. I am popping down to the boat tomorrow and will take a picture of them because they should have been fitted today. Regards Stu |

Yamaha just released a new YAMAHA F250 V6 4.2L OFFSHORE W/ DES DIGITAL 25 L ROTATION, with DES built in. Our older boats are using Yamaha bolt on DES module which cost about $3000 USD per engine plus installation. Not sure if Jeanneau dealers will offer this new F250 V6 with DES for 2024 models. It will make Helm Master EX integration a bit easier  |

They did say my HMEX kit was the last they could get until more are being released in Aug sometime. Sorry about the picture which changed orientation on it's own and I can't rotate it. This shows mine installed today,  |

Thanks for the photo. I will be hoping that mine is already in the pipeline as waiting till August does not sound good. Enjoy your boat!
