    Need more Scarab Content

    Pretty sure that woulda been me on the water last year. I think I talked to you at GPYC last night as well. Going in to talk to the manager about getting a slip on Friday. Also hoping to try to order one of the air docks like you have so I can get in there this summer. Thanks again for the info.

    2021 255XE ballast questions

    First, let me start by saying I know there are very few people with the new 2021 wake series boats. I am posting this to try to 1) inform the forum of changes made to 2021 2) hopefully someone can educate me on how this should work. I am looking to figure out how exactly this ballast system is...

    Boat Stuff Ballast Pump Jumper Cable

    @Cambo I didn’t get a good up close picture of the connector but it’s definitely a two wire and I looks to be female. I can get a better picture tonight. If you think this will work, send me the payment info and I’ll buy one from you. Thanks!

    Battery Question 255XD

    After reading all these posts of people ordering boats last spring/summer and still not even having a est. ship date, I'm realizing I must have gotten extremely lucky. Early February, I went on my dealers website to see if they had received any 2021 boats yet and typed in my 16 AR240's info to...

    Boat Stuff Ballast Pump Jumper Cable

    I will take pictures of the pumps and connectors as soon as i get the boat back. Unfortunately i had to bring the boat back to the dealer the day after i put it in the water for the first time for several issues (6 inches of water in the ski locker after going through a no wake zone being one of...

    Wake Boats Arriving at Dealers?

    I picked up my 255XE from my dealer on April 10th. Put her in the water for the first time for a few hours on the 11th. Unfortunately i had a few issues that required me to take it back to the dealer the following day. Some of my issues included excessive water in the ski locker after going...

    Boat Stuff Ballast Pump Jumper Cable

    @Cambo do you know if the connector on your cable works for the 2021 ballast pumps as well? Looking to use the jumper for emergency use as a backup bilge pump as well as for troubleshooting pumps/flushing bags. How long is the included cable? Will it be long enough to reach the ski locker pump...

    Finally broke her in, now upgrades and build

    @jocolo21 did you get the black mooring cover from your dealer or from another source? Everything ive read on the forum is that no one has received the Yamaha mooring cover for the 25 footers yet. Any info is appreciated.

    Wake Boats Arriving at Dealers?

    Still waiting on delivery of my 255XE to my dealer in NC. Was told this week that the boat is fully built with the exception of the 3 ballast pumps. Dealer said Yamaha told him there are 10-12 boats waiting on these pumps and all waiting to go out following arrival of the pumps. My latest date...

    ETA on 255 XE?

    Mine was supposed to be delivered to the dealer on March 3rd. Then March 15. Then March 23. Now unknown. Dealer called yesterday and said the boat is 98% done and only thing it’s missing is the 3 ballast pumps. Once the pumps come in, it’s ready to ship out. Yamaha didn’t know when the pumps...

    Hampton Roads Area of Virginia Newbie

    I’m in the Hampton roads area in the Smithfield/Carrollton area. I’ve been bouncing all over this summer but often go to the beach on the James River on the Smithfield side just south of the ghost fleet. I went to (I think it’s called clay banks, just across the river from the bridge at the...

    Red bilge light on connext??

    Does anyone know what it means when the bilge status indicator on the connext screen goes red. The three normal colors are white-off, blue-auto, green-on. I have had the light going back and forth between blue and red and every time it goes red it stops running. I unmounted the pump from the...

    Have you lost yours yet? Swim platform stereo remote cover.

    Has anyone that primarily leaves this cover on had any issues with corrosion happening on the face of the radio. I left my cover on for a few weeks and when I took it off the chrome around the radio started to peel off. I boat in salt water/ brackish so I'm pretty sure water that got in there...

    2015 LTDS JL Audio Upgrade + Fishfinder Install

    @Nick Hughes I have the same issue with white noise in my boat. I think I've traced it down to the head unit being the source of the noise. If you have a RCA to 3.5mm adapter cable you can plug it straight from the amp to your phone and see if the noise is still there. The noise disappeared...

    2016 Yamaha Connext <delamination>

    And as far as the boat leaking, every time I've taken the boat out of the water I have had water come out of the drain plug for roughly 20-30 seconds. I kinda thought this was normal but from reading on here it seems like a lot of people have this problem. Side note, I've never acatully seen...
