I need to put a set of splash gaurds on my 2025. it is equiped with 250 verado and 9.9 pro kicker and in the process of puting a 36v vantage on as well. just curious if anybody has similar set up and which kind of splash gaurds you went with and any complaints/complements. I have whitecaps on my ol'alaskan tiller but know wavewackers are very good as well. main concern is which one will fit best be the most effective with all three of those motors since they dont leave much room between each. Also curious if there is a height difference. Thanks for any input

I put the Wavewackers on mine, I don't run a kicker, but their setup for the Vantage is really nice and it's 5 min job to take them on and off. Customer service was some of the best I've had too.

I don't have any experience with the other brands, but I know you can't go wrong with the WaveWackers.

I have had a couple 2025s like that .. Wave Wackers is what I used.
No complaints on Wave Wackers and I have been using them for over 20 years

I was wondering what you did with the transducer if you have a problem with interference or room for everything. I would like to do the same with my boat. Can you back troll decent and hover like a tiller boat?

andy....i have the kicker pro on the left side and still shopping for a 101 vantage for the other side. the lowrance ducer and speed paddle are on the right side and have a bird quadrabeam and wide side on left. im still trying to get the quadrabeam to work properly and think i need to get ahold of tech support cuz i think the ducer might be goofed up. the left and right beams barely mark the bottom thus obviously dont mark fish or structure either. had it on my old boat(18' alaskan) and didnt get good readings from either side than either. prolly going to get a dual freq for my lowrance (havent decided yet which side) so can hopefully run the 200khz on the bow and 50khz off transom for console. as far as the wavewackers go....they are great. I did trim some of the rubber to fit around the verado and i added a piece of aluminium to the wackers between the vantage hole and main engine(was alittle floppy). until i get my vantage mounted, i do get some waves coming thru that opening but not bad. for now i get by with the kicker for back trolling and controlling my drift but im sure the vantage will make that easier and more effecient...not to mention more comfortable since i came from the tiller world before this steerable.
