Better than I thought. I’m coming from an AR 195, it’s night and day. Doing about 45mph there in 2 footers, no problem at all! Coming back in the wind was right on the bow and waved kicked up a bit. Could only do 25ish mph to stay comfortable. Best part was we were dry! Hardly any water over the gunnels or bow! My buddy has a 24’ Skeeter with a Yamaha 300 outboard. He stayed out a little longer, he said the ride back he could only do 15 mph, and was standing in 4” of water on the deck. The Yamaha is the real deal!

Is that in the gulf or Atlantic? Where did you go out of and were weeds an issue?

glad you’re enjoying your new boat!

 

[Dave Biel]

That was out of Crystal River, Gulf side. I use Cedar Key often as well. No weeds that day. I haven’t encountered any significant weeds in the 252 FSH. I had an AR 195 and would hit some weed lines that’ll make you stop a couple times and use the clean out ports. On the Bimini trip in the AR 195 the Sargassum was horrible. Probably stopped 8 times to clear.

Hell yeah!!! How’s it doing in the ocean???

Thats a great pic! Perfect!

The cockpit review Will at JetBoatPilot posted the other day showed both live wells having a post and where they are stored. Here’s a link to that post ...

Couple notes if you watched the video. On my 252 FSH the fresh water tank is 9 gallons. He wasnt sure. The glove box is in fact lockable. It came with two keys.

Great to know! We’re you able to get your live well sorted out?

I did find out there is supposed to be a "drain post" and mine is just missing. I'm expecting a replacement, but if not I'll buy one online.

I took the boat in for the 10 hour service today, and to have the side scan tested. I cant get any picture at all from the side scan, but the down scan and sonar work fine.

I was able to find a locking glove box which fits the upper acrylic cavity under the T Top, I'll post some photos of the finished product when it's in place. (If it looks good, if not I'll put the original acrylic back in.

That’s awesome to hear about the upper box! I’m excited to see what you come up with. I think it’ll be interesting to see what weird anomalies happens as people start to get their boats with everything being so far behind and rushed. Hoping everything is a little more optimized for my 2022 but only time will tell!

Yamaha emailed the Dealer saying it was ready and shipping, arriving May 15th or before.

However there is most likely a setup process for the Dealer, when they receive it.

So not sure how long before I take delivery.

Have you heard from your dealer yet?

I'm sure you already know this but for those of you that dont, The drain posts for the live wells are stored behind the trash can along with the table post, one is longer than the other with the long post going in the front live well I believe.

Just curious if they have it and you have picked it up yet?

Mine has the post holders, but they were empty! . The table post is also back there. On the live well posts, the front one is threaded, the back one is a push in rubber type. I only had the threaded one.
