    Dark why can't you at least use it while it's listed for sale? Am I missing something?

    Ha! They would do it. I wanted to get a group buy going last year with logo on this site but rules wouldn't allow it.
  5. Ballast for 2015 s226 ?

    2nd that! Ordered my 2015 specifically WITHOUT quicksurf because at the time quicksurf was untested. Quite frankly no-one has ever posted a better setup with quicksurf............... 160lbs of lead up front. 160bls of lead on surf side and just got custom sacks to help out so I don't have to carry another 300lbs all the time. BAM -

  7. Ballast for 2015 s226 ?

    Why buy 1100lb bags if you can't fill them all the way? just sayin! If you want to utilize all the space and not re-invent the wheel - hit up NW Boat Sports for custom sacks and then get some lead http://www.pop-products.com/ End of last year I tried to contact Wakemakers for about 3 months straight to no avail. Customer service went in the tank imo!
  8. Our New 238

    When I installed mine I used the WS Swivel clamps. I made a post in my thread at the time that I didn't think there was enough room even without the swivel and just using the adapters on the lowers. Is that what you ran into?? Just curious. Happy with my 1 set but always nice to stay on top of options you know
  9. I've seen the plate but didn't take a snapshot as it was for Centurion but it's alot bigger than 4x4. It fills the entire space between the shaft and rudder and notched out for the rudder as well. But install is just as you indicated from what it looked like.

    H are you going with 2pr Rev's or just 1?
  11. Gator Step Into Boat

    Like this............? I cut them out of a sheet of Hydroturf I had laying around
  12. Another one

    LOL...........check out the "before" and "after" pictures of the wave! That before pic Kills me
  13. Did the dealer winterize it or you? Are you in a climate that is below freezing in winter? The core was probably not drained/blown out
  14. I think you made the right choice. You can always add it later! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  15. Snap In Carpet

    ^ at that price I'd check into Deckadence ^ There is a crew buy thread
  16. I'll have to get out and track some of the other recommendations. Last outing I did jot down RPM and top speed at WOT and RPM at 11.5mph with all ballast full setup for surf. Wanted to at least compare.
  17. Ya Greg is a nice guy. I had a punch list of 4 things that needed done today and dealer has been sitting on replacement parts for a couple months. Also head mechanic had talked to fineline before my appointment to try and get eveything ready and they told him to just call when the boat was there. I showed up and they had sent the dealership the wrong bimini, wrong prop, and wrong prop guard plate. All pieces were for a Centurion and they were never a Centurion dealer. Took all morning on the phone trying to get the software update and they told mechanic to plug USB drive in under dash harness and it'll update. When trying to find it they directed him to look by the touch screen and I happened to be there and piped up "this isn't a Centurion, there are no touch screens".... The dealer has email correspondence that includes my HIN and model so there should be no mistake. Got there at 8:30am and left at 3:30 in afternoon with only flash update done. I left everything else and told them to call me when correct parts came in. Didn't make sense to swap props when I still have to have the plate installed. And slammed with ballast I don't think it would perform. I could tell they were as frustrated with Fineline as me. Crazy.......... Back to Greg at ACME - I told him current setup of 1847 (14 x 14.25) and situation. Even with the plate added and reducing clearance dropping to either of the 1631 or 1579 (both 13.5 x 14.25) would be ideal due to 1/2 diameter difference. 1631 has .150 cup and 1579 has .105 cup and so close that probably won't tell. More hole shot from 1579 and top end on 1631. I told them I wanted the 1579. The 2985 that they sent is 13.25 x 16 .150cup. I have thank Hillside and WylieTunes because I took notes from this thread before I got down there and knew enough to know right away I had issues.
  18. New dock in!

    That Water You need to be out there Resession!!
  19. I was getting the "service now" warning and loud beep approximately 70% of the time upon startup. It's supposedly a temp sensor and flash update fix????ACME confirmed my research on 1631 or 1579 as replacemenfrustrating is putting is niceSent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk
  20. Talked to ACME direct and my concerns validated. Wrong prop. They also sent wrong stainless plate. What joke. Selling Dealer is 1.5hrs away and supposed to get all this done under warranty. Now trying to find a person at fineline to give a straight answer on where to find the flash update to get rid of the service warning so not a wasted trip Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk
  21. They sent my dealer the ACME 2985 - 13.25ױ6. .150 cup. Any feedback good or bad? I'm thinking way too much pitch for all the ballast I run. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk
  22. Go to your nearest Centurion/Supreme dealer and ask if you can have one of the shipping covers. They are white and used to cover the boat and boat cover during shipping from fineline. Most dealers just toss these in the garbage. I took mine just in case I had to store outside for an extended period. Other manufacturers might do the same thing so maybe closest dealer of any tow boat and maybe Worth a quick stop in?
  23. Viking's S226

    Dark - I don't think it's an option that saves any money since it's standard. I didn't even give the 65i's a chance. I swapped them out to the 650RGB's and an SD. If I new I was selling in 2 years I would have done it like you though H. But since I'm keeping her for awhile had to go big - LOL Only thing I might do at some point is another SD2 and XXX in ported enclosure. But for now she sounds pretty damn good and got it looking just like I want (famous words)!
  24. Cool sticks you got there!
  25. slap on a drysuit and GO!
