Ty, I found the art work yrs ago on ebay.... My installer was able to get ahold of the company, and purchased discontinued artwork... Paid about 2k for the job, upper and lower...
I did a full wrap with the blue and had them remake the stock logo with a color scheme that would fit better with blue. For the most part people think it's stock or a special order.
The blue looks great! I have an ar195 I just got last Friday I might have to copy the first picture with the tribal design and go with blue instead of red.

Yep, pretty much. All those jet boats are loud.
Sound proofing helps, a good seal around the engine hatch - easy and inexpensive - great improvement. Just nothing too thick so that you are not putting pressure on the hinges when closing the hatch. There is a lot of posts, various ideas.
Yep. I have always found it hard to find a real sweat spot in the power curve and it does seem higher that you would expect it to be, quite unlike any of my previous outboards. But, those 1.8 engines do loosen up a bit after break in.
