Hi everyone my wife and I have been looking at many boats over the last 1.5 years since I got rid of my center console with a Yamaha 115. We have decided on the AR190 and will be waiting for the right time to buy. I am thinking September/October just in time for the off-season. I am hoping to get the best deal from Yamaha. We will be financing and I am hoping to get the 2.99 or 3.99 financing... Anyway you guys are awesome and I can’t wait to add some of my experiences here. I am happy to be aboard.

Good luck getting a discount from Yamaha. They seem to be few and far between, and VERY dealer dependent.

Also, if you want the best rate from Yamaha you better have stellar credit. We were told an 800 FICO minimum was required for the advertised rate. Were offered 9.99% instead. Went with them for the initial purchase then flipped it quickly to our credit union. We had a 786 I think at the time, and were somewhat amazed we didn't get the best rate.

We also got the AR190 last year. It's a great little boat. Have about 50hrs on it at this point, and it's been great the whole time. Let me know if you have any questions or need any specific details, or pictures. It lives uncovered in the garage about 30ft from the recliner :D
