Spark owner for one month now. Have a little over 14hrs on my 3UP Spark. Have found so much useful information here already. My wife and I are located in Central Texas and have hit 4 different lakes so far. We have one that is 5 min away, but enjoy traveling to others that are close...and have open boat ramps.

@zama89, welcome to the forum, glad you can join us!

With that many hours on your spark, have you come across any of the issues discussed on this forum?

Post some pictures of your spark!

Have not had any "issues". Took it in for the 10hr break in check and they just replaced the side access panel along with an oil change. Been looking to mount mirrors. Think I'm going to try the CIPA model.

I bought it as a base model, but added the front storage kit, rear step, cargo net, and the snap in fenders (which by the way do poorly in choppy water)

They were great when tied up along a 16ft boat in calm water, but I almost lost one trying to dock when it was choppy. They popped right out. My friend on his boat tied one of his fenders to the dock for me...worked okay.
