Hello , I am new in this forum and have just bougth a Rinker Fiesta ve 250 from 2004.
I think it is hard to handle the  control and think that it must be a little easier to control with servo. 

 So my quistion is , do this boat have servo control??

    Most likely your throttle and shift cables are due for replacement. Pretty straight forward process. You just need to measure the length of the existing cables and order accordingly.

    If you’re having a hard time controlling at slow speeds, the boat is probably just wondering. This is normal, It takes a little practice to get used to.

    Welcome to the forum!

    For Mercruiser boats, the servo system is called DTS - Digital Throttle and Control.  Your 2004 boat is compatible with DTS.  It's not cheap, but it's a nice system.  

    Do you want to install it yourself, or have a professional install it?
