Hot Sauce by Boat Bling. Use it every time you get out of the water. Won’t see a spot any place.

Do you guys still need help?

If you look in your manual it should show three reason the warning would come on? When mine came on it had nothing to do with the oil change timer. It was low on oil. I have a 2016 238. The alarm should only come on for three reasons for mine. Coolant temp is too high or exhaust manifold water temp sensors or low oil pressue.

If you are close to Canada. Extreme Boat Sports has a smoking deal on a 2017 RI 217. Has only a few hours on it

I would never use acetone to touch any of boat. Use car or boat wax. Takes a little more effort. Normally take two or three coats. But it will take the goo off and then you have a nice cleaned and waxed area.

I am not knocking anyone. But it’s funny we worry about saving money on camera to put on our 70k and higher boats. But we will drop a grand on a surfboard. Etc. Once again, not knocking anyone cuz I am a cheap skate on certain things and way over spend on others. Lol

Here’s my two cents. All the new 1500s or 150s can pull these big boats. They have the power. I personally have a diesel and it pulls my boat like it’s not even there. Doesn’t down shift and rev out on hills. I take my boat back and forth to Shasta every weekend, which is a little over 2 hours each way. I can go there and back and still have diesel for the rest of my week. My friend has a new 1500. Pulled my boat fine. But he went through almost a full tank of gas just getting to the lake. I have a 238 with 1000 pounds of lead in it. I don’t use my air bags or anything and my truck is bone stock. My thoughts are if you have a big boy boat. Get a big boy truck :-)

Alright. That’s good to know. Thank you Sir :-)

So overall interior and what not is the same? so is the wave pretty similar?

I don’t know how serious I really am about a new boat, but...... I currently have a 2016 Supreme S238, which I am very happy with. I have seen some decent deals on 2016 RI 237s and of course there are the closeout 2017s. Is there much a difference between the two years?

Not to steal your thread..... what is the difference between a 2016 RI 237 and 2017 RI 237?

How many hours on it? Is it on consignment or did you trade to Northwest?

Well if you don't want a pontoon or I/O then go for the Supreme. It's a badass boat. It's my third boat and by far my favorite. Best build quality and best wave in its price point. IMO. I have zero regrets with it. To get started surfing it's good. Once you figure that out. Add lead, bigger ballast bags and you will unleash the big boy wave it's capable of.

I am not being a smartass. But if you don't really plan to surf or wakeboard..... why would you want a wake / surf boat? Why not just get a pontoon? More room and you can just cruise and lounge around. With that being said. I love my supreme. It's an awesome surf boat. And fair wake boat.

Probably about 10k off or so. I wouldn't expect much for "goodies" though.
