Good to know. I'm not sure of the trailer brand. I did get a galvanized trailer.
It should be a Shorelander....thats what Yamaha uses for all their boats, I believe. Mine is a glavanized Shorelander. If yours is, take some time to check all of the fender bolts on your trailer. Several members have found bolts missing, or loose, myself included.

Just checking out the Boat Bling Products. Does the Quickie Sauce replace the need for wax and buff or just an in between coat? I know the Hot Sauce is an after each use type of spray.

Can you post a few pictures of your boat in the water. No one has posted pictures of their AR195 in the water yet (besides the promo ads from Yamaha). i want to get an idea how she sits and looks in the water.:winkingthumbsup" Have a great day out there with your new toy.

I just want to give thanks to everyone at Toms River Marine & Motorsports. We received top notch customer service. Both my wife a I have not gotten that to often in the past. The boat was incredible in the water. After about a half hour of breaking in the engine with our salesman DJ (you rock) we dropped him off at the dock and spent 3 hours on the river and bay. I hit max speed of 55mph on the river and the bay. It felt really smooth and the engine isn't too loud. The depth alert was set at 3ft so I had to learn how to turn that off. There were a few spots where it said we were in 1.5 - 2 ft of water. Never felt it hit bottom. Really great day. Love the boat! After we were finished DJ and Pete (the owner) came back to get us and cleaned the boat for us and got it ready to go. Great day! It's on the back of my truck on its way home.

I was able to get a few in water pics while out on the lake today. Had a boat full with 5 adults 2 kids and my dog. Top speed was 52 with a full tank of gas. Very impressed with the way it takes off. Used about a half tank of gas in about 5 hours. IMG_3381.JPGIMG_3379.JPGIMG_3382.JPGIMG_3385.JPGIMG_3393.JPG
