Lots of cleaning...lol....Im switching over to Spray Nine 26932 Marine Cleaner, seems to work better than the previous stuff I was using, I also want to add some 303 fabric guard, and/or 303 protectant. I have both and will test to see which ones best. What's even harder for me to clean is the padding on the rear deck... So someone post up what works on that please

I saturate all the interior vinyl with 303 protectant. It is not a cleaner itself, but I find it very helpful in keeping the vinyl clean, if it makes any sense.
I buy it by a gallon off amazon. Spray, let sit, wipe off excess. There was some talk of the formula changing recently and some such, but I have not noticed any issues. Love that stuff.

Good to hear. You should hit full rpm range around 7-8 hours. I have 36hrs on mine now with not a single problem other then the 25 hr service light coming on. Starting to really love this whole jet boat thing. No more stern drives for me
I'm still trying to find the best way myself, what I've found is if you get most of it sitting on the tower, then you can get the cover underneath it and over it and start zipping it up. that being said, last time i was out, i messed up the whole process and it took forever lol. Also once you get it started you can rotate it down towards the back of the boat and work with it in an easier position, but don't do that until you get it started.
I had trouble with mine as well. At first I called Gary because it seemed to me it was backwards but I was able to get it figured out. It's still kinda a pain but it gets easier the more you use it.
That's a pretty boat! I took mine out (187) for second time today, still getting used to docking. As far as Bimini, if it is the same, it seems easier when I disconnect the longer arms first.
I have the yellow and white GTS187 I use Quicknbrite paste from amazon and a nylon brush to clean the seats the white comes out so white its hard to look at without sun glasses then i use the 303 aerospace protectant works great. would love to see pics of the sound system
