Great forum with lots of info.
About 4 weeks ago, we bought a used 2014 S20 with a Yamaha 50. Boat was well cared for, but as with anything used, there are some things to fix and some things to buy.
1. Squeaky steering wheel. It sounds like it's right under the hub and not from any cables chafing. Any risk in spraying some WD-40 there?
2. Wish there were cleats at the bow and not just an "eye".
3. The original depth finder (Garmin Echo 100) has a frozen screen but does show depth. However the circuit breaker for the ACC switch keeps tripping. Will have to troubleshoot that this weekend.
4. Tried cleaning pontoons. They are clean of anything that would slow the boat but don't look good. Tried scotch pads but the small area I tried showed lots of scratch marks. I have read lots of the other threads about shining them and will try that after the season.
Overall the family has loved it so far.
