    Bimini boot cover

    Try Yamaha Sports Plaza or Leaders RPM. It might not be available. I'm on my 3rd. The second one was generic and worked just fine.

    16th Season with AR230

    Nope. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'm assuming there is as much lube in there as day 1. If there were water intrusion it would have impacted something by now. Maybe one day.

    16th Season with AR230

    Change the oil and spark plugs every season, check bearing grease tube firmness. If it's not firm add grease until firm. Other than cleaning and polishing now and then that's it. It has had the interior replaced, seadek, perfect pass and stereo upgrade but that's it.

    Rockville 8 Channel Amp Question

    I laid out the challenge in my previous post at the start of thread. I may be missing something, but I think you will have to sum Zones 1, 2, and 3 single output (or pick Left or Right) and go into 3 of the inputs on the amp. The 4th input would be for the single sub out. I don't think you...

    BOAT HULL COATING

    I was thinking about the linex keelguard.

    16th Season with AR230

    Here is a photo after new wheels and tires on trailer and one docked from last night. I haven't given a proper cleaning this year. Just removed the cover and wiped it down.

    16th Season with AR230

    Fresh water. I haven't check hours in a while. I think I may be at 700 hrs or so. Just trailered it a little bit ago and driving in some good water...47.1 mph and 10,200 rpms.

    16th Season with AR230

    Boring post, but I just hit the water for the first time yesterday. Changed the oil, changed the plugs, checked the bearing grease. Runs like a champ. What a great boat. I've done more to the trailer than the boat.

    Rockville 8 Channel Amp Question

    RA670 has a dedicated sub output so that's taken care of. Now, the sub has to be linked to one of the zones so it will go up in volume when one of the zones volume is turned up. You can also link zones 1/2. Good news is that you can separately control the volume to the zones or turn them all...

    Sub install question

    Other than fiberglass and gelcoat, plywood is probably next on the list of materials in most boats.

    MR-1 Aftermarket Air Filters - Junk?

    I've never changed mine. Still looks brand new and engine runs 10,200 rpms. That's rusty AF.

    Rockford Fosgate Vs JL Audio Setup

    This is what I do. I wouldn't count on engines to charge the batteries much at all. I have tested my house battery down to where it didn't have enough voltage to turn amps on and it still had enough voltage to start the engines by itself.

    Brand new MR1 engine?

    I'm in the same boat but only have about 600 hrs on my engines. It would be a longshot for a new crate MR1 to be generally available. I've never heard of one going back years. I only heard of folks throwing around a figure of $12-15K for a new engine. If I had an issue I would go with a used...

    Been looking at trucks...

    I traded in my Suburban with AFM with 300K miles. No issues, but I did replace the valve covers with bad design that allowed PCV to suck out oil.

    Adios Yamaha ?

    Same thing…boats and politics. :)

    Adios Yamaha ?

    Will be jealous of the wave. Don't know why people have to piss people off over a boat. I haven't seen the threads but I'm sure it's about defending boat choice or the Yamaha wave.

    Playpen (Michigan) Boating Accident Victim Speaks

    I see the potential for this happening ALL the time in a crowd of anchored boats.

    2022 212SD Not going to be delivered

    This is true. I made several orders of appliances and kept on doing the legwork for a month to lay my hands on one and cancel the other orders.

    Fixed my missing ladder strap.

    It's a labor of love.....?

    Fixed my missing ladder strap.

    Seems like a lot of work for a $10 same day delivery item. I get the tinkering aspect.
