Nettles in Austin for the win

Yeah, I should have mentioned that I knew the 233's rear lockers were way smaller than mine, didn't know about the 244 though. Good to know

I can't answer all of your questions but the Quick Fills are 500# per side. On my 240, I have 1100's in the rear lockers and 580# tube sack in mid port compartment. No bow ballast needed for me

I just had my two back hatch covers re-done by a local shop and cost me about $400. I went with plain white to see what it would look like. New skins from Centurion to match would probably be over a grand, but just guessing. The problem is that no matter what you do (even new skins from Centurion) it won't match the rest of the boat because the older parts will have a little fade to them. I think I'm just gonna save and have my whole boat re-done at the same time. But I'm gonna wait until I can't stand it anymore.

interesting. Learn something every day

I get that Malibu has a patent but I don't understand how CATS is a delayed convergence device? It's basically just a large adjustable tracking fin.

I'm digging the black an white color scheme

If it's a 2014 I'm pretty sure you have the Vaults

What year? Look at your trailer wheels and if the bearings say "vault" on them then they are maintenance free. If not, then pop off the bearing cover with a flathead screw driver to expose a zerk fitting. Fill with marine grade grease

I apologize, I should have been more specific. For surfing, Enzo sacs are the way to go. We don't wakeboard so I cannot speak to that. I just always assume everyone surfs and nothing else

Yep, Enzo sacs are the way to go then. That's exactly what they were made for. It won't fill completely on the Starboard side but it will fill the compartment completely.

What year is your 240? If 2011 or newer then you will have to do separate bags due to the bulkhead they started adding in 2011 to add the Quick Fill tanks. In this case the 1100's fit perfectly in the rear lockers. 680's for the Mids. If you have 2010 or older then Enzo sacs fit perfectly. Either way definitely ditch the sprinkler valves, they are horrible. Best to run a two-way ballast puppy to each bag.

I grew up Ocean Surfing too but always transported boards upside down due to the wax thing but always nose first. To each his own

I'm thinking in 08 you still had the Merc

I thought this was true as well. It does seem odd, however, that some of the higher end PCM engines state in the manual that 92 octane is required. I was curious to know if anyone knew why exactly

I have used the Blue Sta-Bil in my boat on every fill up since it was new because I do not have ethanol free gas where I live. Ethanol attracts water and for a marine environment, that's just bad news. If I had access to ethanol free fuel like you do I would only use it at end of season for storage. By the way, I've never had a fuel issue either and I'm at 700 hours

Already spending his money That boat makes Lake Travis look Good!

That looks amazing! I'm gonna have to do mine here pretty soon

I can 100% assure you that the DEX-COOL is supposed to be 50/50 mixed with distilled water

Mine was replaced under warranty with some begging but only the seats . And I had to pay for labor to have them replaced.

That is awesome!

Infinity, if you do drain your coolant it would be SUPER helpful if you could take some pics and do a small write-up for how to drain the DEX-COOL. I for one would really appreciate it, and I know others would as well. I didn't see the pic of your boat without vinyl? What was the problem? Yours is a 2014, yes?

Me too. University of Texas. But I was too poor to own a boat then

That picture with her clothes on is just torture I haven't been to Lake Travis since I was a kid, our normal vacation spot is Lake LBJ. I would like to head to Travis again someday, especially now that it's back up. What did yall do when it was dry?
