    Whats up Everyone!

    Thanks for the advice Steel. I ended up going with the whole Jetboatpilot kit. As far as spinning the chair, I just pulled the lever under the base and it let me do it. One side is slide front to back, the other side of the lever lets you spin the chair.

    Whats up Everyone!

    First outing was good. I can tell you this boat has no where near the slow speed maneuverability as my old Scarab. I spent all day practicing docking, approach, and low speed turning. The interior space this boat has compared to the Scarab is unbelievable. And its very fast! I went ahead and...

    2023 AR190 subwoofer mounting

    What subwoofer is that? Also are you getting rattling? I was thinking of assing a couple open air subs, but this box would keep me from opening holes.

    Rotax Shop Manual

    Whoever removed the shop manual from this thread needs to put it back ASAP. It was given to me by BRP to share on this forum specifically. A simple PM would have clarified this.

    255 Open ID - Adding a second battery

    That kit will work great for you. The only thing about this kit is that the switch is much bigger than the owm one. It can be done, but you may have to move some of the circuit breakers around to enlarge the hole for the new one.

    Engine problem

    Rotax powered jet boat do not need to winterize, or drain any fluids for storage unless they will be stored for more than a year. Then all you have to do is run a mixture of coolant/water while you flush the engine out. This puts a nice film in your exhaust system. If they fogged the engine...

    Anyone towing with a Jeep Wrangler?

    APPROX. DRY WEIGHT 2600 LB TRAILER WEIGHT 834 LB 3434lbs. But you are correct. Within the range without fuel in the boat, people in the Jeep, and the random stuff you throw in the boat.

    Ive been looking to buy another Scarab or Yamaha even a Sea-doo. The prices out there are out of control. I have a couple of Yamaha skis, but the people on FB trying to lowball you is crazy. I found a nice 212SS, but I really want a 190. I dont want to get into a bigger truck. I love my Jeep.
