    Yamaha timing chain and engine failure…cylinder head damage

    ...and they won’t cover repairs. We have 78 hours on the engine and this boat was serviced annually!! I saw a post by zwillz referencing case #’s, names and a written letter from Yamaha. Would love getting that info as I want to pursue further with Yamaha. Spending $35,000+ for a boat only...

    The official "What did you do to your jet boat today" thread.

    Started wet sanding the hull today. Oxidization was very noticeable, weather is nice and the boat batteries are dead so it’s a perfect day to tackle this job, charge the batteries and ditch the IL registration #’s for AL ones.

    Show us what you see!!!

    ASAP if I want to be legal. I’ve done all of the paperwork and have the reg stickers, just need to go buy some #’s.

    See if #’s 14,17,18,19 on this diagram is what you’re looking for. Not sure which year and boat you have. You can search this site though. Maybe someone will chime in with the specific information you need. https://www.boats.net/catalog/yamaha/boat/2012/242-limited-s-sxt1800hl/exhaust-3

    Help with choosing a battery

    ...and how you use the boat. Do you ride the boat 10 min then just sit all day then 10 min back? If so then you would probably be better off with 24’s i guess but thats a problem for any battery. If you actually use the boat then you would have no issues with 27’s. To give you an idea i have an...

    Polished Stainless Boat Registration Numbers - Coast Guard ok with them?

    Here are my #’s. Its the same polyester film as the chrome so you kind of get a similar look but its a brushed metal finish instead. You dont get that reflectiveness of the chrome.

    Polished Stainless Boat Registration Numbers - Coast Guard ok with them?

    Yep same here. I can only think of maybe twice in 25 years where i have seen some #’s down in the lazarette. I am all through the boats too and never seen any. Must be something that owners dont or captains dont even care about or the coast guard doesn't care about or chk.

    Polished Stainless Boat Registration Numbers - Coast Guard ok with them?

    Actually they are. Well the name is not regulated but the hailing port is because the name and hailing port replaces the #’s. On a boat with a hailing port you dont jave registration #’s on the hull. Hailing port is supposed to be 4” in height. In a nutshell Your name and port are registered and...

    Help My Buddy!

    If in fact the comp is a little low it could simply just a speck of rust developed on the valve seat from sitting over the winter. If he runs the boat it will eventually wear away and the #’s will come back up. Nothing to worry about.

    Help with choosing a battery

    ...in marine you will see group 24 which are the tiny ones then geoup 27 then 31. 27 and 31 are somewhat close in power ratings. 27 just under the 31. Dimensions are different though. For those 3 yes higher # is bigger but there are many others in there with all different #’s and different sizes

    Looking to order a 2022 AR195 Have some questions on dealer fees. East Coast NJ

    I am here in nj. Those #’s arent excessive and prob about average for a 195. I didnt end up paying any of that on my boat but the profit margin is also way higher so the dealer could easily absorb that and not feel it on the 27. All the smaller boats people are pretty much paying the freight and...

    Weird starting issues, SX210

    Sounds like you have a handle on it. Let me know if you need any tools. I also have a spare engine sitting in a crate in my garage if you need to look at or test it To compare #’s.

    Let's talk batteries....

    Yes for sure on the batteries for the generator, are your sure on those #’s? A 5kw gen set is fairly small. Being gas and not deisel they will surely suck more but that is over the top. If its sucking that much gas i would rip it out and get another set. My 14kw at full load is 1gph. I also...

    Boat Registration - where to place it on 2019 Blue 242X-E?

    Personally mine is below the rail, above is too intrusive. On my boat, it’s white above the rail and blue below so the silver lettering went on the blue. Doesn’t look terrible as far as registration #’s go.

    Insurance?

    Thank you for posting this. It’s pointless to discuss insurance costs without the entire policy info to compare, and then it still won’t matter unless you live close to one another.

    I swapped ecus last night. Will hook up yds to see if the injector #’s went with them tonight
