What's the break in on the new 345 cat surf motors?

She's a sweetie Drew... but, did the camera run out of film???

No pics of it on the water?!

I should have been less technical with my first reply to JV. The break in period is brutally BORING & TEDIOUS!!

There is just a ton to do around the lakehouse to get ready for summer that we hopped on the boat and cranked out a few hours in between jobs. I promise more pics soon.

NIce Wolf, yea the break in is a pain actually. We followed ours the same way when we got it in 09. What we did though was take it down the river, sight seeing, this way it didnt seem so bad. We also played my game called wake boarder down where we randomly threw a rubber foot ball off the boat and the driver had to pretend it was your rider and go get them. The key was learning to get close enough to grab the ball but not let the boats wake push it away LOL.

It made the hours click by a lot faster.

From what I read in the manuals, it's the same as the others:

Not over 1,000 rpm hour 1
Not over 2,000 rpm hour 2
Not over 3,000 rpm hour 3
Not over 4,000 rom hours 4-10

No heavy loads (I.e. ballast), no heavy acceleration, etc for first 10. Same as I remember for OBV. Followed that to the letter and my boat always ran great, so doing it again. I did catch that the manual reads to run 89 octane and I ran 87 in the OBV. Might easily be a $4.00+ per gallon summer for us.

prob 4.50 here I have a place that sells ethanol free 89 gas but its steep... ouch.

Thanks for that update, my OBV had 11 hrs on it when i got it so thanks for the good reminder. and yes that will be boring and tedious.

benefits of owning a lake house.... short walk to boat ramp and beer fridge and Chores.

Got the break-in hours completed yesterday afternoon. My OBV ran flawlessly so I followed the break-in procedure for the Mojo to the letter and expect to have the same results (knock on wood). My oldest daughter brought a friend along for the weekend and made her endure hours of driving around the lake. So, I'm embarrassed a bit to admit this, after we hit 10:01 on the clock, the tube was thrown out behind the boat. Hey, I mentioned that I bought the boat for the kids and they LOVE it! We only had 1 1/2 hr left before we had to head home, so the tube was a great way to get 3 of them in the water & having some fun.

Rainbows in the clouds - knew it was going to be a great day!



The green monster. This motor sounds awesome!



My 12 yr old standing in the rear locker. Yeah, there will be at least a 1,100 in there soon!
