So we finally get to go pick up our 2018 ar210 we just got from Tom's river new Jersey. I have a question though on trailering. I have a 2013 jeep grand Cherokee overland I will be using to tow it and here is the hitch we purchased. Is this good for the trailer that comes with the boat?

I tow with a Grand Cherokee also, although not a jet yet. Good chance that will be a little to high. Might buy a 3 1/2 drop and return the one that doesnt work as well. Duel axles means it needs to be level. Have fun!

Just bought a 2018 AR210 as well. Only had it in the water once so far. Hoping for nicer weather. I'm sure i had a big grin when i was running down the lake for the first time with it. Congratulations!

I'm in PA, closest city is Reading. Please let me know if you come across anything with the 2018 AR210 that i should know. I have a handful of things that I've upgraded/changed and a few more things that I'm still trying to figure out. This forum has been amazing. Loving it!

Sounds like my type of guy. I think I've watched every video there is on yamahas and am constantly reading articles. Might do the sea deck in a few years. Wanna see how i like the snap in carpet first. I'm on the fence with the lateral thrusters. I thought it turned pretty descent with the integrated keel at low speed. It turns on a dime at high speed. However, only had it out 1 day and part of that was break in period. I've made adjustments to the cover poles, and added ratcheting straps. I'm still in the where should i put everything phase.:happy:
