My 2016 Yamaha 242X thread....(MORE photos added 6/14/19)

I am thinking of visiting it this weekend! I don't think prep includes oil...it does include unloading from the truck, batteries and installing them, raising the tower, installing seat cushions, and cleaning, and testing the all the functions - which all told takes 8 hours....

My dealer credited me a good price on the 2 OEM batteries and allowed me to bring to them the 2 (better) batteries I wanted installed.
I went with AGM's from Sears

I went to the dealer to photo and video mine coming off the truck. Kinda weird but how many times I. You life will you buy a brand new boat! I was lucky in that a friend happen to see the truck on the highway and said he saw a big black and white Yamaha on th truck so I boogied down to the dealer only 20 minutes away. As far as purchases the Stoltz and keel guard would by #1 and 2 for me. My bow was also scratched just from the drive home from the dealer. I've seen a couple people on here that have ripped their keel OFF hitting something in the water, I think the keel guard may have helped. Some said they barely felt the hit.

Stay in Dallas @Julian. I will be happy to go pick it up for ya. No really, I would

 

[buckbuck]

Ya, we could break it,...I mean break it in for you.

 

[96Pirate]

We can see how many jetboaters.net members we can fit on it at once.

 

[tdonoughue]

Yeah, y'all could probably pick it up and float it right down here to pick me up. I think Dallas is going to be shoreline shortly.

Hummm.....interesting idea! I was thinking of going down there to look at her longingly...but I think I'll resist (I was hoping to have my stoltz bow roller in by now...but shipping was slow, so that, the tire cover and name application will have to wait!
