We put on 50 hours this year this is probably the lowest amount we put on since we owned the boat. But on the plus side we logged a lot of hours behind others boats. With small kids I always nominate my boat with the people we go out with but this year they put their foot down and start saying they want to take their boat instead. (made it a lot nicer for me just gather the kids and crap and go no boat to worry about.)

50 hours for this year 25 short to match last year , mostly due to rainy weekends .

Just over 200 hrs this season. No trips to the dealer! No issues at all. This is our 2nd full season with the Mojo and the hour meter reads 368 hours.

I did 112hs this year. I feel its pretty good as I am a month short on the lake due to dropping the boat off for a few warranty issues on oct 4th. Most I have logged on the Mojo so far in one year.

and 8 trips to the dealer for warranty work

Yikes! what's going on with the newer boats?

3 wakeboard racks - for the recall
2 PDMs - attempt at fixing the wakeplate moving on its own
1 digital cruise pro - fixed the erratic wakeplate
1 wakeplate gauge - gauge still moves on its own while plate is stationary (still not fixed)
1 windshield - was not mounted correctly and the center folding window was digging into fiberglass when closed
1 solenoid for the trailer - leaking brake fluid

other than that boat has been great! no worries, right?

kriley

2 PDMs
2 PDMs downloads
1 rewire of Wakeplate and change out of digital cruise pro
1 checking for pinched wire as the reason the Wakeplate will not work correctly - currently in for this
1 replace ballast pump due to leaking out of O-ring
1 getting 2 cushions fixed due to poor sewing

As 13 Möbius LSV said - other than that no problems.... As the Visa commercial says - Priceless...

Damn some of you guys get to hammer out the hours. We put 73 on the new Mojo so far and I might get one or two days out yet. On a good note between my buddies, LSV and Mondo along with our Mojo I spent alot of hours behind the boat.

40 hours between mid June and labor day, Crappy weather dominated our summer, late start early finish. It was our first year so we are OK with it.

We have a short season and after 170 hours I'm glad winter is here, my body needs a rest. The last few weekends were pretty hard. We tend to push hard and fast to get in as much as possible..

61 hrs for us. we did put a few hrs on my friends new centurion.

About 30 hours :confused: Typically a 100 hour season for us but our lake habits have changed and less free time available it seems.

Damn.........some of you guys are beasts with the hours. We did 50 hrs from June to Sept. No multi day vacations though, so I would expect a little more next year.

Only 10 hours on the new LSV. We picked it up in late August and put it in storage at the end of September. Sad, sad day.

Hey CamperCarl - welcome to the forums!!!

I'm a Pittsburgh boy - born and raised in Bethel Park, alumni of Slippery Rock.

Go Steelers!! (please)

If you are ever down in the Disneyworld area - you make sure to contact me. I'd be happy to take you and family out on the boat while you are here.

Where do you usually boat?

Thanks for the welcome. This is actually make second membership. I had joined the forum back in 07 when we bought are LS. When we bought the 14 I was reminded how good this forum was by the dealer. Too many address and email changes since then to remember original account.

I'm a PA boy, but new to Pittsburgh. We moved from Columbia, SC where we were always on Lake Murray. We got spoiled being only 5 minutes from the boat launch. We haven't boated in the Pittsburgh area, as we keep our boat at Lake Raystown.

I sure miss the longer riding seasons of the south. Thanks for the invited, Ed

110 hours so far, but the season isn't over. Headed out tomorrow to get some more. Been a slow year for us.

Just under 50 hours this season, about average. Most was put on during Wake the World events and a week and a few weekends at Norris. Ohio weather was not good this year.

You need to bring that thing to the Jam next summer!

We got about 75 this year i think so far. A little less than our 100 hour per year goal but the cold winter and me working overseas at the beginning of the year got us off to a late start. Then we had a few outings get cancelled due to rain.

We will be there this year! Last 2 years we have had conflicting vacations. Looking forward to it.

90 this year. I just winterized it this weekend, so there won't be any November days this year (unless it gets really nice and then I'm willing to re-winterize).

58.4 - more than I would have guessed. Cold weather is headed in this week so had to throw in the towel and winterize. Let the 7 month hibernation gloom begin.

what he said.

Not sure how many for me. I would guess maybe 70 - 75? probably about 60 on the Supra and 10 to 15 on the Moomba?? I never really pay attention to those numbers...

No way. I'm not sure if I like summer or winter better. I'm just happy to get a month between ski/boat seasons to actually do a chore a two around the house. My wife asked me if I could finish the basement before ski season...

Hey, at least I got to help you put a couple of those ours on that sexy blue beast!

BTW, I have to say that the trip that you hosted my family on inspired my sister and fam to be a lot more into the idea of watersports. This summer, they are going to fly up to Portland and we're going to do 6 night camping (in cabins) at a local lake in Central OR. It's going to be a fantastic family vacation and that day on the Trinity really opened their eyes to the kind of boating that I love.
