Always hearing about boat issues here so I thought I would share my 400 hrs of flawless jet boating experience. I put 300hrs on my older 2017 Ar190 and just hit 100hrs on my 2020 212S. Besides sucking up a Kroger bag or stick, and both boats taking water from the clean out excess panel (especially the 212) both boats are running strong. I sold the 190 to my buddy and he has added an additional 60 carefree hrs, thank God..

Just keep up with mantaince schedule.
Hope I am not jinxing myself.

Just did the 100 hour oil change recently here...no issues. Only need to hit a few lube points and I'm good for another 100.

115 engine hours of flawless running….Probably 500 hours of being on the boat, mainly fishing, with a smaller percentage of coving or drifting.

Completed 100 hour maintenance and a 100 hour check of the jet pump rear most bearings which were in great condition, added a small amount of EPNOC grease while I had them apart.

Also pulled the clean out tray over the winter to check all hose clamps and other fasteners which were in good condition, and resealed the clean out tray. Adjusted 5 gallon bucket locker latch to promote better sealing of the hatch.

Just hit 175 hours on our 2019 AR190. No problems at all so far! I baby it though. Never rev it up past 6,500 rpm and cruise at 20mph. Most of the hours are just putting around the lake at 5mph. This power train will probably last a few thousand hours the way I operate it.
