That text is very hard to read. You should re-write that in bullet points without ALL CAPS.

What are the blue filter things next to the motors?

Great looking boat! Just wondering why you had to replace the engines at 400 hrs?

nice boat, I see you are in Auglaize County, I'm in Allen County, where do you normally take it? We started on Grand Lake beginning of season, but the blue/green algae seems to have gotten worse as the season wore on so we bailed. Now we head up to Coldwater, MI or to Alum Creek.

If anyone decides to buy this boat, I do have an OEM Yamaha black mooring cover for sale used for two months it’s brand new with poles and everything original in the box.

Why did both motors fail so early?

Sorry guys for the late response . I didn't get any emails like I usually do saying I got a reply . So to answer your questions I bought the boat in the height of COVID from Indiana . Pinecrest marina . Wasn't supposed to leave the state and couldn't get out on the lake for a test . So it ran on muffs just fine . Brought it home and it blew out a spark plug.. put in helicoil and it threw a rod . Took to my marina spend a day cause Pinecrest said they would work with me and they don't work on jet boats . Inspection camera revealed port engine had bent valves and starboard had one cylinder low compression but ran good . Opted for 2 reman SBT engines . Big mistake . They got me one that worked but couldn't get me a good second one . So I got everything new Yamaha from riva racing and got one good SBT. And one Yamaha . This year rolls around and I lost oil pressure on the SBT . NOT GOING TO DEAL WITH THEM AGAIN . they are jokers . Sold the SBT engine and put together another new Yamaha and had my marina put it in . Why were the engines problematic ? Only thing I can think is previous owner traded it in to Pinecrest marine and possibly Pinecrest didn't winterize it over winter . Pinecrest did cut me a check for 9 k but it didn't go far enough . Long story short I have an extremely bad taste in my mouth with this boat but couldn't sell it till it was right . I will not let someone else go through what I did. It's right now and ready for a new home . I'm gonna cut my losses now and go back to a stern drive . We boat at grand lake st. Mary's which is just down the road . I'm gonna take a huge loss but there's nothing I can really do about it but just move on .

Blue filters are catch cans . The crankcase ventilation is removed from the intake and capped off . So no hot air goes back to intake . Or oil film . It's caught in the blue catch cans

Ya the owner is who I dealt with . Was very nice but this whole situation went down badly . Of everything I bought in my life this boat is the worst I've gotten screwed on . This boat now is one bad mother and ready for enjoyment ! No thanks to Pinecrest or SBT !! everyone stay away from SBT !! .
