Nice looking boat!

That launch has to be a bit of a bitch on a busy weekend in an inboard boat! Looks like a long way to back up, and I know my boat doesn't like to go straight for very long!

I had a feeling this was coming before too long. Congrats, my friend. I'm very happy for you. Looks like lots of fun. You must have gotten tired of working on the ballast system in the OBV. Did you trade it?

OH CRAP-- I missed the JK at the top. Guess the joke's on me.

you seem to imply that would be a problem?

my son is curently running around the lakehouse with the new trailer pole covers Heidi gave me (sorry, Capt'n Smith), beating his sisters. Lots of screaming & yelling from kiddos & Momma. By myself on the boat right now sounds like paradise.

JV - what did you think about the V2 and boarding the boat? In the way, no issue, etc?

Drew, If you look at the first picture. the boarding on the XLV with the V2 had plenty of room. notice there we no boards in the racks , the racks spin abot 150 not a full 180, but could pose a problem when loaded. looks very clean and sturdy, no real weight on it either. I think the LSV would pose more loading problems but i assume it is tighter to the windsheild. the wake was pretty impressive at 21 mph on xlv.

Drew- as you eye up that XLV, think of all the extra trips down to the dock carrying gas cans.

no XLV for me. too big for the kiddos at this time and if they ever need that kinda wake, I'm hoping they are sponsored by SC and we're styling in a 242.

VERY NICE....I have not seen the new Spinner Racks we are building for Moomba on a boat yet thanks for posting a pic...

As long as you did not ask? I will who makes them and are they available on the tube style tower.

These racks were never intended to spin 180 degrees, they were just designed to spin in to load and unload your boards, not to be stored or towed with them in that position..

Sure would making docking in slip or on side of dock with supports much easier if they did. Most other manufacturers are offering this now.

Feeding the itch I guess. Wanted to see the new V2 in person and they had one on its way, they were kind enough to let me water test it with them before the customer took deilvery. aewsome boat. wake was pretty clean at 21 without ballast

Yes, Abby turns two this weekend we are a having a little party for her on saturday, probably wont do much boating all depends. if you are around stop by.
