AR190-AR192 PICS!

[lddv1224]

@DBamaC No I have not. I wanted to try it but the amount of debris on Lake Cumberland was out of control. Anything from 3 1/2 ft logs to small sticks. I'm actually shocked that I didn't get anything sucked up into the intake grate.

Finally got her out for the first time this summer. Enjoying a few days on Lake Cumberland. View attachment 37457

Headed that way on Thursday. Staying at the State Park . Any recommendations on good family oriented restaurants on the water?

@Ismael Breton Sorry but I can't help you out. We stayed out on the water on a houseboat and cooked our own food. We launched from the Jamestown Marina and cruised over to state dock were we rented 6 houseboats. Just make sure you buy any supplies or drinks you might need out in town or bring it yourself. A 12 pack of Coke is $10 at the state dock store. Fuel wasn't as bad as I thought on the water $3.89 a gallon. I paid close to $5 dollars a gallon last year when I went to cave run lake.

Which reminds me, I need to take measurements for another member... I totally spaced. Please read the last posts of that thread if you are thinking of going that route, some things to think about.
I have had nothing but great experience with that tower, simply impossible to beat on price and structural strength, we had used and ABUSED one of those on another boat that I had - never any issues, no spider cracks in gelcoat, nothing. But the install is tricky and painful, that tower definitely looks deceptively simple... but it has all these joints that are a royal pain to set up right. Once you do, and if it fits - it is great.

Few years back, I looked at pretty much every tower on the market. I've learned that build and weld quality had little to do with the price. That said, the new OEM is a great looking design. (With a ridiculous price tag, and uncertain reliability.) To me, it looks SO GOOD, I would definitely consider it.

been waiting for this weekend to get the boat out and upload a new pic. thinking about removing my side graphic and the pinstripe and putting an electric green strip on. I had my dealer remove me bench seat ( AR190) and replace it with a captains chair ( wife wanted a captain seat) and it looks great. Saw so many Yamaha's this weekend in Yuma on the Colorado river ( hidden shores).

Note the rediculously tall anchor light I donated to my friend for his MasterCraft. Glad to have that POS off my boat.

I used these for the lights inside the boat. I got 4 but only used two. Theyre bright enough. For behind the swim deck seats, I just went to O'reilys and got the 10" LED strips that almost every autoparts store has. Tied them all together and tied them into the courtesy light above the throttle. Very simple process. Just tedious work.

I know this is an old thread but was wondering how you mounted the lights behind the rear seats? I am looking to do something similar and can't seem to see how to remove the cushions. Looks like the screws come from the outside in. Probably simple but I'm just not seeing it.
Tks

Is this a fizzle intercooler with a tial BOV?
Looks cool!
Is anyone upgrading to the SVHO intercooler?

 

[Gonrcng]

Yeah. This is the Fizzle. I'm still learning and trying to figure things with a ton of help from the other great members here. Not sure about the SVHO. Is that a larger factory IC from another ski that I read a little about?

 

[swatski]

Yes. But we should prolly move this discussion to a performance mods thread before we get in trouble .

 

[Shannon]

New wheels and radial tires and my most favorite is the 5% tint The wife and friends are liking the tint now that they get a little private space out of the sun. Hope you guys like as I shot these with crappy i phone 4

 

[Gonrcng]

I can not believe how awesome that looks !!!! Very nice.

 

[Shannon]

Thanks @Gonrcng! I am happy with how it came together! I think we both have great taste considering our twins.. Great little boat
