    The Brand New 2017 Yamaha AR195 and SX195

    Yep. Same here. I turn the volume on the head all the way up, and the volume on my phone down... Then use my phone's volume control to turn up or down. Hope this helps.

    The Brand New 2017 Yamaha AR195 and SX195

    I rarely use the app... I just use Google Music directly via BT to the head unit. Never had an issue of it being slow. The app does take a few seconds to connect and feels slow, but again rarely use it.

    The Brand New 2017 Yamaha AR195 and SX195

    I use 93 ethanol free gas. In a pinch, out on the water, I wouldn't hesitate to use 87. Below is a link to a map that shows all the gas stations that provide ethanol free gas. http://www.pure-gas.org/extensions/map.html

    What size box anchor

    My gripes and experience with the box anchor is that's not just bulky, but 20+lbs (Mantus 8lbs). Pulling it up is a CHORE. Most importantly I'm finding it doesn't set well in the "world renowned, super fine, white sand of the West Central Florida waters". :) It does not stay set at a busy...

    Drain plug led Diablo Royal ??

    I appreciate the heads up. I'd like to have the lights attached to a rocker switch at the helm, but I just can't bring myself to start carving out a place for them. YET...

    Drain plug led Diablo Royal ??

    I bought two adapters & typhoon drain plug lights. I'll take pics and let you know once installed. FYI I bought these controllers from amazon. They look identical, and are three times cheaper than Diablo: http://amzn.to/2hJejpZ

    Suggestions for hiding paired electrical wire

    Looking for suggestion for hiding the electrical wire runs through the lockers. I'd use the p-clamps, but can't drill hull or locker side in my 19" AR195.

    Putz of the day award goes to...

    Doesn't seem like a big enough channel to simply go on auto-pilot, and go to the head. Also looks like the smaller boat has radar. Problem: I have to poop. No one else on board. Solution: Maybe drop anchor outside the channel, through an anchor light on, and poop?

    Boat Parade Hovering LED Guy
