    Adding Batteries

    @afsigma21 I appreciate the advice. I think starting fresh is a good idea, I may just add an extra deep cycle for the stereo. So buy 3 in the spring :cool:

    Adding Batteries

I am adding a sound system to the boat in the spring pushing a lot more power than my current system. Now the boat was at the dealer (not a yamaha...

    Bought a New Sound System-Selling Polk Tower Speakers

    I am putting 4 JL tower speakers facing back (maybe on a swivel) so I didn't really think I would need the bar facing backwards ;)

    Bought a New Sound System-Selling Polk Tower Speakers

    Really? I was going to put spacers up their to fit the M770's but my JL dealer said it wouldnt create enough clearance to really take advantage of the M series up there, I got MX's for the bow and M series everywhere else. My old boat had M series all around but again he suggested MX up there.

    Bought a New Sound System-Selling Polk Tower Speakers

    It’s funny because that’s the only part of the boat that doesn’t fit the better JL speakers, so already my bow area will be less powerful than the rest of the boat. I’m probablt putting the tower speakers on swivel clamps

    Went to the dark side

    Yeah no clamp. I just enlarged the whole that was there

    Went to the dark side

    It’s funny because it was never really in the shop other than the first season. It’s all minor BS issues, the engine has been rock solid which is good!

    Went to the dark side

    So today I traded in my Scarab 195 HOI. This was my first boat and my god did I truly enjoy it. It was time to upgrade to something a little bigger and hopefully a few less issues (Yamaha 242X). I am going to miss this boat and was almost in tears trading it in! :( Just wanted to share some...

    242X Ballast Bag

    Ah okay. I gotta start by trying to recalibrate it tomorrow. It should really be up to the dealer but they’re not a Yamaha dealer so I’m just trying to figure it out I guess

    242X Ballast Bag

    Thank you! Still curious if it didn’t work today because I was using the touch screen. Should that be the case?

    As you can see, the screen never goes Grey meanwhile the bags are empty when you look at them
