Great Video! Thanks for posting.

I'll admit it though, I need to use my Go Pro more. Note to self!

How's the break in coming along?

Is the rich smell gone? Any differences from first outing?

Cool video. I love the colors on your boat.

Damn! It won't load for me. I want to see this.

I plan on towing up that way soon.

It will not work on the Ipad

You can definitely feel the difference in that 15mph. I feel a faster hole shot, and the exhaust is less prevalent. I think the ecu may have leaned out the air/fuel mix after break in. Also, I have been running 87 octane. Ill run that till I get the first oil change at 25 hours, then Ill switch to 93. Supposed to make more power with the higher octane. We shall see.

Cool video. I love the colors on your boat.

Thanks man!

You bet, @ScarabMike !

 

[4x15mph]

Great video and the scarab looks all broken in.

 

[Yamborghini]

Glad for you dude. I'd find it hard to get off such a pretty boat

 

[Tranio]

Hi everybody I am new to this website I'am new to boating never own one In my life Unless you consider a kayak a Boat.
Mike that is a great video and beautiful boat great job.
This website has give me a wealth of information since I don't know much about boating originally had my eye on the 165 Because it fits nicely in my garage But now My focus is on the 195.
Have actually never seen one in person next week I will be in Jacksonville and the dealer up there has a couple of them that I can go take a look at and physically see one maybe even get a ride.
I'm hoping by the end of the year I will have one of my own if there's anybody in my area wouldn't mind giving me a ride on one I wouldn't mind putting gas in the tank. Thanks everybody keep up the great pictures and videos.

Thanks man!

I just noticed this. Break in is 10 hours, at which point the first oil change and inspection should be done. I am almost positive this is what your Rotax manual recommends. Usually to the tune of $250-$300.

Hey Reuben,

I was hesitant to reply to your pm about getting a ride because you had no posts on here, and I needed to see you were a real member, and not someone looking to rob a boat. Ill be glad to give you a spin in mine, and let you take a shot at driving it. Its an eye opening experience. I have your number, and ill text you mine. maybe next week?

Marine Max said they wanted to see it in 25 hours, and I just confirmed it. Maybe these engines are a little different than the regular Rotax that have been out there.
