    STB No Wake Mode not working

    Just posted a reply to a similar thread, this seems to have worked for me.... I had a similar issue but my Starboard Engine would not engage no wake after it had been running for a while, there is a throttle stop screw under the air filter, 1/8 to 1/4 turn Anti-Clockwise seems to resolve the...

    No wake mode not working

    I had a similar issue but my Starboard Engine would not engage no wake after it had been running for a while, there is a throttle stop screw under the air filter, 1/8 to 1/4 turn Anti-Clockwise seems to resolve the issue, it is a T style head on the screw for reference. take the air filter out...

    The official "What did you do to your jet boat today" thread.

    In the spirit of the thread title, I had my buddy extract the parts of the fish that decided to explore my impeller tube during a fuel stop today (I have a phobia about fish and this was my living nightmare!).

    Fort Lauderdale boat show?

    Its normal, apart from the fact it is normally a Dockwise ship.. I worked in the Yacht Industry in Fort Lauderdale, it is common for the "smaller" boats like those to be transported to the Med in the summer for the season and then return to do the Florida/Caribbean season during the winter months.

    Am I the only moron to have done this?

    Well, I joined the "sucked a rope up" club today, first time for me. Cleanout plug came out ok once I remembered to take out the EZ Lock :( but getting it back was a struggle as it was so hot out today. Now I know why I carry a super sharp knife on board!!

    2006 AR 230 should we buy?

    Told you he was helpful!! I installed mine a couple of months ago, not had a chance to review them but it is my first jet boat and I installed them before taking it onto the water, I love the handling and control and doubt if I could ever go back to a stern-drive, I have no doubt that your fins...

    Wtf is on this boat?

    If you enlarge the photo it looks like the owner has tried to scrub the dirt off and probably gave up as it is a nightmare without starbrite or on-off (West Marine equivalent). Couple of other things I noticed, according to the HIN it is an 07, also, the scupper is missing it's flap and looks...

    Wtf is on this boat?

    This will work well on the fiberglass/gelcoat, we get a similar mess every year as we dock in the lake all summer, it is just a build up of gunk.. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Star-Brite-Hull-Cleaner-Gel-Spray-22-oz/51201194 Not sure if it will work on the ladder/jets though.

    2007 sx230 want to add tower

    Or you could look at getting it from Wake Essentials, I got a different make/model from them a couple of years ago for my previous boat, they were super helpful, very quick on delivery and their after sales support was excellent (and they have the best deals I could find)...

    Pop Yachts

    I have not sold through them but when I was looking to buy they kept sending me boats that were totally different in price/style/location to what I had told them I was looking for, when I asked them to stop, a broker replied and was very condescending and rude so I personally would not have any...

    2006 AR 230 should we buy?

    We leave ours in the slip at all times, the bilge pump switch stays on, the pump will only pump when there is water present so hopefully it will not be running all the time, I think it cycles every couple of minutes to check for water so there will be some drain over time even with no water. We...

    2006 AR 230 should we buy?

    It looks to me like HO engines as I was under the impression that No Wake mode was only available with HO, you can see the No Wake switches in one of the photos. Also, SBT are a distributor for BlackTip mats, on the other side of the stern there is a BlackTip logo so it could well be that they...
