So I’m sure it’s a simple solution but I’m scratching my head on this one. I installed the table in our new AR250 to eat lunch and it’s slanted down. I can’t figure it out. It mounts perfectly on the rear of the boat. It’s like I should have 2 different poles for the 2 different mounts. Any suggestions?

Looks like they installed that mount incorrectly. Maybe another member can snap a pick of their mount and or table in back.
 
I have no experience with the 250 series but my 2010 242 limited s came stock with two table legs one (I think for the swim deck NOT cockpit) is shorter and angled differently than the other.

That’s what I was thinking as well, but I can’t find another leg for it and all the videos I watch on this model, they only talk about 1 leg. I reached out to my dealership and they have a call into Yamaha. I was just hoping someone could shine some light on it for me. Thanks
 
Also, I was wondering if they had different angle mounts at the factory for different locations and maybe I got 2 aft mounts in my boat instead of the cockpit mount. Not sure
 
Maybe someone with a 250 can chime in but there is most likely an angled shim between the mount and the fiberglass
Looks like there is a spacer, maybe installed upside down

Yes, I see what you’re talking about except I can’t see the bottom of the bracket. I’ll head down to the boat and check it out. Thanks!
 
The shim appears to be upside down but the screws won’t come out to flip it. They just spin but won’t back out. Any ideas?

You need to get around the back of it and see what is back there. Wear long sleeves rubbing up against that fiberglass, I learned the hard way.
 
Must have nuts with washers back there. Gotta be some access somewhere. Just be careful not to drop them. Might need 2 people if its a reach

You’re right, I feel a washer and nut on the back side.
 
I highly recommend wearing long sleeves or arm chaps, this happened to me doing reach arounds:

? that looks intense! I fought the fiberglass last night sticking my arm in a a cup holder hole adjusting my aft Ubolt tie downs but I didn’t get anything like that. OUCH!

I get bruised easily because of the medications I take, and from sun damage.
 
Well that was a waste of an hour of my life. I guess they gave me the wrong shim bc I flipped it and now it’s better but not right.

Looks like if it was angled any more it will be buried in the backrest. Definitely not correct at all
 
Yes the bolts are tight. The table isn’t supposed to be able to go side to side just front to back but I twisted it sideways to show how unlevel it is and it’s so far off I’m able to put it side to side like pictured. You can see in the photos of the bracket it’s snug against the fiberglass.
 
Did you confirm that there are not 2 table legs for your model year, like all the others?
