Temperature at 180,normal or to hot?

[T100]

My temperature is running at 180, is this a normal temp to run at? My first year with the boat not sure if I need to look into this further. What temps do you guys run at? Boat is running fine. 2004 Mobius LSV.
Thanks for any help.

That's the temp my 05 outback runs at

Thanks freyse, I thought it was a little high but if your running the same I'll just keep an eye on it. Dude, have you been out on the water there in Sask? My family is original from there and still have a family cabin out side of Regina.
Cheers

Had mine checked according to the dealer they have a 180 degree thermostat and this is normal. I am more used to a 160 thermostat so I was concerned too.

Thanks, so is 180 ok to run at according to the dealer or is 160 better?

I have a 2004 Mobius LSV as well and it sits solid at 180 once it warms up. Thanks for the confirmation that yours is the same, this was an area of concern for me as well.

My 99 outback was pegged at 160, and my 09 21v is pegged between 154 and 164 .... indmar manual says NOT is 160

My supra runs 180

My 02 LSV, which is new to me, runs about 185. It has concerned me as well. I have it in the shop for an intermittent overheating problem, but I've asked them to address this while it is there.

From what I understand, there can be a great amount of discrepency in our guages
