    Broken Captains Chair

    So I finally realized why my captains chair was so uncomfortable and was preventing access to the starboard rear storage, the seat base was completely busted. Searching for solutions I found this appears to be a fairly common problem on our boats, but there were no real solutions other than to...

    AR190 Keel Height on Trailer

    Lots of helpful threads on here about the exact dimensions of the AR190 on the trailer. From what I’ve gathered 8.5’ fender to fender wide, 22’ long with the hitch tongue folded, and 7’2” tall with the tower folded (but can be folded more by releasing the support cables). I have one more...

    Does anyone have a shipping cover?

    I lost my shipping cover for my AR195 by being in a rush and just pushing it under the bench seat thinking it would stay and not fly out.... Dumb I know, but you live and learn. Anyone have one for sale? The mooring covers or nice but I don’t have that kind of money to throw towards one right now.

    Broken Articulating keel assembly

    Today ran across a rock and basically tearing off the keel at the pivot point, nothing left, where do I find the whole assembly for the AR190? I can't find it on any parts diagrams.

Likely wouldn't have more than 6 people on board most weekends. I do have some concerns about the ride on choppy waters and the power/speed...

    AR190 impeller

    Finally had the chance to take the boat out and pull something since I had an extra driver and observer. As warned by the dealership that I had my post-buy inspection/warranty transfer done at, the impeller did not produce sufficient thrust to quickly get someone out of the water...so I'm...

    New to this forum but hoping someone can help. I had my boat moved from the northeast to Texas a few weeks ago and attempted to put it in the water. First issue is we hooked up the two batteries incorrectly and blew several fuses. We have changed everyone that we can find. Now the boat will...
