    Can this be removed from my seats? Mildew Remover not working.

    Cut a lemon in half and start rubbing in a circular motions. The acid in the fruit will eat that black fungus for lunch. Wipe down when finished.

    Looking to repair or find tachometer

    Maybe check Great Lakes Skipper's website. I scored a pair of black faced tachs from him a few years back for my 2010 - 212X.

    Aftermarket hydraulic steering

    That's the ticket. My oem cables run straight down the center flooring. I bit the bullet and ordered a set from SBT (OEM 212X - 2018 ED. cables.) According to their website the newer cable is 16 feet 5 inches long. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I hope it's long enough.

    Aftermarket hydraulic steering

    I was at my local Bass Pro shop over the weekend and had a chance to play with the new bass boats. That hydraulic steering they have is perfectly smooth and instantaneous. I'd like to know if there's a system out there we can fit into our jet boats? And ideas people? Thank you, Russell

    Repower 2004 AR210 with MR-1 HO's

    Boat sitting for a year

    Don't sweat the wait. My boat sat for 2.5 years with .50 tank full of fuel. I mixed some new fuel with it and ran it through. It runs like a champ! No issues....
