2016 ar192 rattle

[Robby]

i am getting a rattle noise from the back of the boat at around 6200 rpms cruising and it goes away if i throttle up or down a little. i noticed there is a bit of play in the dump bucket where it mounts and also the jet nozzle which i think might be the rattle noise. is this a common issue on these boats?

thanks

There are little plastic bushings in a lot of those mounting spots, like where the bucket pivots and where the jet steers. I have a '12 and mine have not worn out yet, but I suppose it is possible. Haven't heard any reports of rattling like that. Then again, with as loud as my engines are, I don't know that I would hear a rattle anyway...
