Howdy from Texas! I'm a fifty-some-odd year old who finally has caught the boat bug. Purchased a 2015 Yamaha AR190 a few weeks ago and am loving it so far! I'm an engineer so look forward to digging into some of the technical aspects and DIY improvements with the many like-minded folks on this board (I have read through several forums and see many of you :). The boat is running well, only has 71 hours so I think I got a good one. I already installed a thrust vector kit and just got in on the sweet SEADEK deal so looking forward to sprucing her up!
