This my first twin-engine boat, AND my boat's name is Hook N Up ! Getting the artwork and graphic done for it right now !
Keep me posted on how it all goes.
The salt has played havoc on mine, and I am set for a riser replacement, BIII U-joint work on the port side, and have a gimp gimble bearing to port also. Prev. owner made a generous allowance, and the engines (189 hrs) and her topside are all tight (stored covered but in water.)
Projects include:
-Switching over to LEDs (done except navi lights)
-Backup topside battery system
-Way more bilge pumping power (adding 2 Rule 3000s)
-New anchor setup
-Standpipe to control water level in livewell (already made one myself)
Anyway, keep me posted and "tight lines" if and when you fish her !
Welcome from a new AJ owner also.
only owned for a year but has been fun learning the ins and outs of the boat.
This site is a big help and great source of info. Boating version of SUV
Congrats best of luck!! Just took delivery of my '08 290 AJ on Monday. Awesome boats mine has v-drives what a difference coming from my single I/O Chris-Craft!! Bit overwhelmed trying to learn how to use everything but that's part of the fun. Enjoy the season!!
Question, does anyone have factory under swim plat form lighting? I have one burnt out, and am not sure what brand they are or even how to replace the bulb if possible....
I do have the under platform lights and the underwater lights in the transome. They look really cool. I have the manuals on the boat I'll check and get back to you.
Have purchased 2002 Amberjack with remanufactured 357s This is my second sea ray had a 95 370. Loved the 370. The Amberjack is a smaller boat with a bid boat ride. My amberjack has v drives can’t keep her planing unless rpm over 3500 rpms is this about right?
