I have a 2019 215 ID. Is it normal that the boat moves forward slowly when in neutral? Is there an adjustment for this?
 
Adjust your reverse gates down slightly
 
Bottom line is it is nearly impossible to get a true neutral. A small amount of forward is pretty typical.
 
Your boat is equipped with INR. There is a nuetral adjustment in your cluster/touchscreen, whichever you boat has.
 
Can you elaborate.....what is INR?
It stand for Intelligent Neutral and Reverse. We are able to adjust the position of the bucket(s) thru the computer to find a perfect neutral. It works very well. There are a total of 31 setting +15, 0, -15. Each "click" lowers or raises the buckets in 1mm increments. This movement will allow you to find that sweet spot and keep the boat in one position. It great! It almost works great for trolling (but might be too slow).

@S4451 To adjust neutral, put the boat in neutral and on the speed/engine screen towards the bottom you'll have an up arrow and a down arrow with a number in between. Just tap the appropriate arrow to find neutral.
 
Here are some pictures showing what I described above.

I know about the engine light; it's a thorn in my side. :banghead: Tough one to eliminate but no effect on the engine. :arghh:

Are you saying my Yamaha lacks Intelligent something?!
I beg to differ.
:cool:

Very cool!
 
Those photos of the dash don't look anything like my Scarab 2019 215 ID. Does this adjustment exist on the '19 215 ID without the digital dash option?
 
Here is the user guide for the standard dash cluster for your Scarab.
I believe you have the Viper 1 medallion (mine in Viper 2). Navigate to the screen in the setting menu where you'll find the Neutral Adjustment. There you will see (something very similar) what I'm referring too.

Scarab didn’t include that user guide with my new boat. That explains A LOT! Thanks! You just saved a bunch of posts from me on what stuff means on the dash.
