Nautique, Axis, and Malibu boats now offer Surf Pipes (FAE) on many of their boats, and I just saw where Tige boats for 2018 are offering Surf Pipes (FAE) on their boats. Why isn't Moomba and Supra boats offering that as an option?? FAE's are great for noise, exhaust smells, and safety.

Come on Skiers Choice, get with it and offer Surf Pipes or better yet, make them standard on all your boats. I've had an FAE on my boat for 4 seasons and will never have another boat without it.

Who says skiers choice isn't offering it? ........... wouldn't be surprised to see it for 2018

Perhaps it will soon be leaked, pulled down, and then released again.

I can confirm that the 2018 Supra SA I saw on Saturday has an FAE on it. I am not clear if it is standard or an option, but they definitely have them available from the factory.

If anyone from Skiers Choice would like to confirm if it will be an available part to purchase and add to my 2017 that would be cool.

Price is going to not be far off from buying direct? So I guess it is and always has been an option.

Now should it be standard on all boats sold in us. Yes.

Just saw a pic of an '18 Mojo with a factory surf exhaust. Looks similar to FAE.

Why not just simply buy an FAE? $500 and problem solved. Indmar has zero problem with it.

Economy of scale. If they do it at the factory, they can have all the right parts designed and ready to go and install effort for them would be trivial. It's not hard to install an FAE but it's a little "fiddly", measuring, cutting, etc. If I had an option to pay $500 installed, or $500 for DIY, it would be an easy choice. Not to mention the overall improvement in product quality for SC if every boat they made ran quiet and non-stinky.

Yes I get that. I was suggesting those seeking a factory option to retrofit a boat just grab one.

Or, order one (if Skiers doesn't offer one) and have your dealer install before delivery.

Is Skiers offers it as a $500 option it would be impressive.

Gotcha guess it is just turn down exhaust , but I really thought the catalyzed engines took most of the CM out of the exhaust

I installed FAE on my 14 best option on the boat made a huge difference when riding in the observer seats in the back and the engine noise is way down when surfing. I absolutely agree this should be an option offered I don't know why someone wouldn't order it if it was available.

I've never had an issue with CM with the excat engine.

Never smelt it on the boat but if you hang out in the rear facing seats I would notice it, truthfully the biggest advantage is how much better you can hear the music now [emoji6]

$750 on Supra, would imagine Moomba should be the same.

Yes, it is called a Surf Pipe on both Supra and Moomba.

I asked my dealer to add it to my boat that's on Order and he said it's not an option.

That's weird. Clearly it is an option. Might need to show your dealer the builder that was introduced today.

When I contact FAE in the spring, they sent me an image of one that had a support that connected to the drain plug. Looked like I would have to take out the current drain plug port and install a thicker one that the fae would also mount to. Looked hideous.

They have a revised one. No support bracket
