Hi Guys

I just picked up 2018 AR 195 (its my first boat ever) so Im total beginner with boats (had jet ski for 3 years)
Please check the video . My question is - do I need some repair there? or that play there its ok 360 hours on clock on this boat

Thx for any input
 
It appears the play you have is in this piece which is what actuated the articulating keel.

I don’t how much play there is when new but I’d have to think there would be a decent amount of play in that black piece to allow free movement.
 
Thank you for your input. Looks like there is lots of play also in those two areas ( i guess its ok )

Mine had the same play since new, never an issue. If plastic bushing is not broken, should be ok.
