Mustard on the boat.... yikes. LOL

Must be a misprint. Time to change after seeing CDIfrankos post!? LOL. What's your hours at? I'm only at 55 right now.

Nobody else sharing pics? The reason I don't like skimboarding^^^ Trying pop shuvs. Sometimes it ends badly. Lol. Oh yeah. Newbie friend broke my Mucus with his shins today... that's three boards this season. So far! Damn thing split almost the whole length of the board! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Google. Never thought of that. Lol. Says IAT high voltage , so what he heck is that? Hmmm. Let's try this Google thing again.

So, I've had 2 counts on this fault code come up. SPN 105 FMI 3 They've both rang in when my wife has started the boat immediately after the boat starts. Tried getting info on it on the engine diagnostics screen, but no luck. Any ideas??

ahhhhh, gotcha. 0 is center on my CATS. -50 is full goofy cranked, +50 is reg

"for reals" that's just "cray cray" :thumbsup:

Doc should be peeking his head out the door around that time

Dreamer.... What is the "ballast boy seat"??? And you don't use Cats at all??

I like the Nautique surf system itself the best because of its low profile and clean look. Can't comment on the wave quality vs the Ri because sadly I haven't surfed a properly tuned RI yet and only surfed the G23 for about 90seconds at the comp. An RI257 is going to be MASSIVE. The 237 is already a behemoth. LOL. Wish they'd reveal the boats already. I want to see if they do right by the FS hull.

Haha! Cool. Their new RI looks completely insane. Didn't realize Osoyoos was that high. Now I know.

Hopefully someone with your model will chime in. But it's been my experience that counterweight adds push. Unfortunately, it has a negative effect on the SV boats goofy wave cleanliness. My advice would be 200ish lbs of lead in the starboard corner as far back as possible. Add counter weight at the observers seat. You'll likely have to go close to full negative Cats and pretty far down on the trim. Start speed at 11mph.

Where were you? Not Alouette @900'.

When I stop having to dish out money for surfboard replacements I'll let you know.

I really do think that this is great, but somehow just feels like blasphemy on a Centurion or Supreme. Am I the only one?

My friends S238 is the most fuel efficient surf boat I've ever been on. I don't understand how his is so efficient compared to my FS33. But I swear as I put more hours on it, it's getting better and better. 43 hours now.

Cool!

Those cups are awesome!!! Can I buy one! Need a new Crew hat too. Doc?

There can be only one

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I may have blown one of my Rev's. At low volume there is a noticeable crackle when the beat hits. But it seems to sound ok while turned up... also, my sub makes no bass. It moves, but no sound, or very little anyway. It was garbage anyways.

You SOB. You had me going!!

I couldn't agree more... with all of what ALL of you are saying. Not that I haven't been having fun this year, but I definitely had some kinda stressful days. I'm pretty competitive, and I really enjoy progressing. That's what makes doing a new sport fun! It's easy to progress at first because, well, at first you're pretty awful. Lol. But this year I stressed to get a three trick line into MyWake. Then I stressed to get in practice time for the competition. I really wanted to learn air reverses. And, it just wasn't as much fun! Now that that's all done, I started having fun again. Even now with both my custom boards breaking, I'm still having fun riding the boards I'm not so good on. Started riding my skim again and trying to do shuvs. Landed 360's first try today on both my P5 skim and IS Mucus. Took one of my nieces out on the board with me, and tried to get the older niece to surf on her own. Had my parents, sister, and her two kids all on the new boat for their first time and just had a really nice day. Really... This is why we started boating in the first place. I'll compete again next year, but I'll just treat it like another fun day on the water! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Same boat here, different V-drive. I'm pushing 3700 with no people weight and over 4000 with just 2-3 more people. But I also seem to be running more counter than you guys. 1847 prop. Glugglugglug. She's thirsty.

Ooh... I like this! LOLOL. There are plenty of sponsored riders in Am divisions it seems these days. My buddy Codey got bumped up to Outlaw this year because he's pretty consistent on some bigger tricks like Bigspins (skim). Yet he was the only one at the Westcoast Monroe comp in outlaw that didn't have a board sponsor. He placed fourth on a board he'd ridden 3 or 4 times and had a not so great run. He's picking up a 2017 S226 tonight going from a Tige R20 or some crap like that. Look for him on the podiums next year! @Mrdeerwood nice pics!

It's a pain, but you could drain Ram until you reach speed then refill. I did it on my FX22 when I tried to make a monster wakeboard wake for my buddy. Not ideal obviously.
