Hi all,
I'm currently shopping for a used 2019 or newer AR195 and I've seen a few boats that have a lot of dirt/discoloration/mildew/carbon buildup(?) on the white tubing along the engine (see pic). But, some boats with more hours the tubing is clean.
If the tubing is dirty is that a red flag for any issue? Does it mean more moisture is getting in the engine compartment or that it has been stored outdoors poorly?
