135 last season in 47 (avg 10 hours per outing) outings. Planning on more than 47 outings this year. Most of my propulsion is done by my MinnKota Ulterra trolling motor.

Last year I put over 100 hours on the 252 but most of that was Charters. The FSH is close to breaking 100 hours in 3 months.

When we were in NC I put like... 5 hours a season on, if that. We had a small lake, would ride out to the sandbar from the marina, and then hang out, so very little engine usage. We were out most weekends, sometimes twice a weekend, but we had like a 10 minute ride each way, lol.
Once we get the boat down to FL... Who knows.

When i bought my 2009 AR230 the seller guesstimated it had around 300hrs on it. It was in great shape, always dealer serviced and didn't think twice about buying it. Since we bought it at the end of the 2019 and have only run it the past 2 summers I had never hooked up the YDS until recently and I was shocked at how many hours were on this boat.
I know that last season I put well over 100hrs on it and the season before I'm guessing that it was probably 70-80hrs which tells me that this boat was basically like a 10yr old demo unit.

What is the highest amount of hours anyone has seen on a Yamaha jet boat before?

We are halfway through 15 season and I finally purchased YDS cable. I thought I would have had 1,000 hrs. I have 596. I average around 40 hours per year. I'll plug in again and get the detail for RPM hours.

I am curious. The FSH is now close to 400. I would expect in less than 2 years it will be over a 1,000 (pending anything major).

I had just over 60hrs one season which is a lot for MN. Normally I get in between 35 to 45 on average.
