I took delivery July 30 last year and have 127 hours on the boat. How does that compare to people with real jobs? :idea:

the reason I'm asking is I think the key was left on, or something. I'm having it serviced in a couple weeks and I'm going to have them check the ecm for accuracy.
But, then again. I do use the shi* out of it.

I thought the same. When it was in for service I had Clu check our hour meter with what was on the ECM and with the gauge right at 100 hours the ECM had a log of 95.x hours. The gauge is a little optimistic.

When we got ours is had 25 hours on it...that was in Feb 2002 (with 5 of those with the key left "on").
Now it has 120 hours after three seasons of being at the river most of the summer. We like to float :p

160 hrs is still considered low.
Figure 160 hourz X avg 35 mph = the equivalant of 5600 miles on a car.
The boat dealers talk it up much more severe.
I tend to judge a boat old style, that is,,,,; by condition.
Few put a lot of hours on their boat.
It's the builders and dealers that started this hour meter garbage to scare up panic sales and buying.
