First time Owner from NY

[Chris252]

Hey All!
I am picking up my new boat on Friday and am super excited! I ended up with a 2018 Scarab 255 Impulse in Blue Denim ( which looks so much better in person than it does in pictures!)
I am a first time boat owner but have many years of boating experience although none with jet boats. Any tips or tricks anyone can recommend?

Thanks in advance!

Chris

Congratulations! Glad to have you on board,

I don't know much about the Scarabs (other than they look really good, especially the blue) but just be careful about running out of the water, if I remember correctly you can destroy the carbon seal if it gets to hot, maybe do a search for more info

Just thought of a name for our boat this morning. "Bad yama jama"

Oh and here's the lyrics to the song I'm referencing "bad mama jama" (but changing the mama to "yama" respectively):

She's a Bad Mama Jama
Carl Carlton
Yeah, ooo, ooo-oh
Look at her
She's a bad mama jama
Just as fine as she can be
She's a bad mama jama
Just as fine as she can be
Her body measurements
Are perfect in every dimension
She's got a figure
That's sho 'nuff payin' attention
She's poetry in motion
Beautiful sight to see
I get so excited
Viewing her anatomy
She's built (She's built, she's stacked)
Oh she's stacked (All the curves that men like)
Got all the curves men like
She's built (She's built, she's stacked)
Oh she's stacked (All the curves men like)
Got all the curves that men like
Look at her!
She's a bad mama jama
Just as fine as she can be
Hey!
She's a bad mama jama
Just as fine as she can be
Looks like
She's poured into the gold, she bad
An essence of beauty
Ooo, such lovely hair
She's foxy, classy
Oh,…

SOUNDS LIKE HES TALKING ABOUT THE BOAT TO ME! LOL
