Hello,

I am going to go look at a new 198FNS. Anyone have any opinions on the Reinell FNS boats? Anything I should look for or ask the dealer?

Thanks in advance.

Re: New 198 FNS

I bought a 2008 200 LSE a few months ago, It is nice but I did have a few new boat problems with it. Most of them could have been solved if the dealer did his job in rigging properly. The idle speed was way off, the tach was set on the wrong setting and had to be adjusted. And I had a carb recall soon after it was purchased. I did have to tighten several of the screws after the first couple of runs also. This is pretty standard on new boats also. I dont think any of these take away from the quality of the boat which is good. Make sure you have a good dealer that will back up the boat.
