Hi all,

First time boat and jetboat owner. Picked up a 2006 AR230, have done extensive work, still more to be done but have taken it out to Waikiki a few times and recently Kaneohe Sandbar. Still learning the waters and how to navigate around. Would eventually want to be comfortable taking the boat out for offshore diving, spearfishing, and fishing. Main use is for family at sandbar.sandbar boat 2.jpg

Any other jetboat owners on Oahu that are active on this site?

welcome, we look forward to you sharing many pictures,

in my signature below is a list of known problems with you era boat, some of the links are broken but you can search once you see the key word,

most important is checking your scupper valve, if it cracks you could sink,

Thank you for the tip! First thing I did was changed to the metal one.
