I just hit 25hrs on my 2011 LSV, I wanted to know when should I take it in to get serviced? I herd mixed answers on this topic, just wanted to see what is everyones thoughts.

I took my OBV in around 20 and plan to do the same with the Mojo. I call ahead and tell the dealer day and time I will be there so they have me on the schedule and I can wait on the boat if there isn't anything major wrong. By the time I'm done drooling over the boats on the lot, they have me hooked back up and I'm on my way. The owners manual states to do this, so I do it just in case . . .

I think the owners manual says to have the first service/checkup done between 10-20 hours.

You are correct, Sir! I know b/c I'm reading in now on the plane.

You need to have your oil and filter changed , the other fluids checked, the hoses checked, THE ALIGNMENT CHECKED, and a few other things.

I waited until around 20 on the OBV to see if any cosmetic issues arose. Had 2 small ones that Atlanta Marine quickly took care of without hesitation.

I dropped her off and hoping nothing is bad wrong with my steering either, it pulls really bad to the right when you let go of the steering wheel.

They all do that. I think it's due to the prop rotation and the wash going past the rudder.

Well I dropped my boat off last Tuesday to get it serviced and to change out my dash lights while they had it. Well I just received a email from the dealer telling me its ready but the lights did not fit that they ordered. They had my boat for 10 days, 10 days to service my boat? Is this normal? Well I told them to send the lights back and I will do it myself, how hard is it to change out a freakin bulb?

10 days seems a tad long but with that being said, this is the busiest time of the year for the service dept. think of all the boat owners getting service done. I've got a pretty sweet set up with my dealer in that I call ahead and schedule the routine service on such and such day, they have enough notice and I do a "in and out" service. Drop it off when they open, go mess around in austin, then pick it up few hours later and head home. Check with you guy and see if they can accommodate you similar to that next time.
