Let me know when you have some Boss Hoss in stock..I'm a fan of the long boards.Filmed at a secret location in the Utah Mountains.
Look at it this way, either you bribe your kid $20 to introduce them to something fun they'll enjoy the rest of their lives ...or dad pays $20 for the experience of riding behind the boat with his kid. Hopefully both are true and it's a valuable experience! Kade needed the bribe to get him out there, but he's been on a high over the experience ever since.

If Yamaha used a full feature head unit at the transom as a transom remote, what did they use at the helm for audio control?Let's try again
Change your spark plugs if you haven’t. Mine does that when it needs new plugs.View attachment 157513
After over two long weeks of the boat sitting in the driveway we finally made it out with some friends on our local lake. I thought I was going to have a “help” post for you all because the port engine wouldn’t start, it kept turning over forever, like it was starved for fuel. Not sure if something got stuck in the fuel line or what. First time we’ve had that issue but eventually it started, I gave both engines hell, and never had an issue again the rest of the day.
I have two spare plugs that I plan to get in the boat saturday and change the worst looking ones.. I changed the plugs when I first brought the boat home, so I wouldn't think they went bad that fast, but who knows. I'm going to gap them smaller than what I gapped the first time and see if it makes any difference.Change your spark plugs if you haven’t. Mine does that when it needs new plugs.
Looks like you have MR1 engines, so I confidently predict the worst plug will be #3. However, since you're spending the time to pull all the plugs, I would just change them all.I have two spare plugs that I plan to get in the boat saturday and change the worst looking ones..

The Boss Hoss is actually in stock now. We just recently recieved a shipment of 2021 surfers that included 2 of them.Let me know when you have some Boss Hoss in stock..I'm a fan of the long boards.
