Which are best for Yamaha 250 SHO? Also, 4” version correct?

The new TH Marine Steer Stops...they are dark blue and very heavy duty.

I’ve found that ever stops I look at have been undersized by at least 1/8 inch. To get a tighter fit I bought some Moto-Stops from Tackle Warehouse in 5 inch length and then cut them a bit oversized to fit my motor snug. Fits super tight and made of quality rubber. [Linked Image]

Watch out for the rubber ones... I bought some skeeter branded ones of the skeeter website. I fished in November and it was pretty cold out that morning. The rubber was so cold and hard I could barely get them off.

Thanks I’ll keep an eye out. One day someone will make a product that makes these things disappear.

Got a pair of the DD26 steering locks that are super heavy duty. They are a bit pricey though.
