It's February. It's cold. I went wakeboarding.

Water quality doesn't get much better than this...

The water was smooth, but not warm.

Well, here are my exciting pics! I just got my build date from the dealer, so i guess it's real enough that posting online about it can't jinx it anymore. This is BEYOND a dream come true - if you had told me a couple of years ago that I would be in the position to spec out and order a brand new wake boat I would have laughed at you, but the stars aligned, and I jumped off the cliff!

My idea was to keep the Craz as budget concious as possible while maxxing out al of the wake options.

Raptor 400
6 pump ballast, autowake, Flow 2.0
Stock prop
GPS
Classic pattern with Silver flake/Captain Blue/Dark Graphite/black chrome logo/black tower/non skid package inside and on gunnels. bow cushion and heater.
DOVE GREY/SILVER MOQUETTA
regular swivel racks, bimini NO tower speakers
no stereo options except transom remote
base trailer with swing away tongue, 7 pin round light connector and steps.


My dealer added the steps and dual battery setup. Seems like they're cheap or free at their costs as a "deal maker" options from the factory...

Spray date 4/23. Is it April yet?!

Thanks! Yes, I've spent time in all of the current Moomba offerings. The dealer that I bought from - Denney Marine in Albany, KY - could be described as a family friends (actually houseboat dock neighbors to a good friend's family). They are constantly rotating what boat they are using, so I've spent time on all of them. While the Max is far superior in (surf) wake than anything in it's class (price wise) and has enormous amounts of space, I just don't like the square design. Also, the Max won't fit through an 8' door with the tower folded (the Craz/Mojo will although it takes some doing), and would be generally difficult to tow every weekend - It's a monster and needs to live on a lift... Also, I just like boats with pointy bows - hence spending nearly the same money on the 1' shorter Craz over the Mojo.

Her younger brother is a goalie but the competition is immense with the boys so no real chance there. Please let Jacob know the Moomba crew is behind him and very proud of him. Keep working hard. We are rooting for you!

Your right to get to this level it is very competitive and stressful, more so for goalies. At the level he plays at the college showcases and national leagues are key. We went from no D1 offers to 2 after he had an awesome tournament at ESPN for the Disney Showcase. Three games he gave up ZERO goals and even stopped a PK. Tell your kids to keep playing as long as it's fun for them. Jacob loves soccer and lives to train. He also kicked for football his SR year and had interest from some small D1 and D2 schools, but his heart is with soccer. I'm just happy it's worked out for him.
Thank you Moomba family I'll let him know your rooting for him.

Sweet Looking SL! What was your last boat? I’m new to the forum (and boating community). Just purchased our first one this last fall and didn’t even use it. It has been a super long winter. Picked up a 2017 550SE and can’t wait to try it out.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180218/8b28f0d46919c9703ee059baea2b1e9d.jpg

I'm in the process of replacing the Deutsch connector on the paddlewheel to the boat harness. If a previous owner hadn't screwed with it and spliced the wires, it would have been plug and play, super easy.

I'm going to try the GPS antenna under the drivers cowl, I've heard the signal will pass through the fiberglass. If that doesn't work, I'm going to snake it through the vent in front of the driver's side windshield. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180219/27c2f6a3fcad8b4dbabb39ad90701ae3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180219/9e187e1ed85939757bc4d1a56c683228.jpg

I have seen others have to do this as well, I don't think it was the previous owner, pretty sure they came from the factory like this. Probably saved a dollar a boat, lol. Where did you find the connector? Great photos, Thanks for sharing.

Shoebox
02-19-2018, 04:13 PM
I paid an extra $20 for NauticLaugic to send me one. Wish they had sent a couple extra pins, they are very fragile.

I was also working with one of the Moomba guys who's here on the forum, trying to figure out the wiring for the connector. He sent me a pic of the paddlewheel they use, so if it came like this from the factory then they had to have cut off the connector on the paddlewheel. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180219/ce6d3719d905103b12783b81b35a0a00.jpg

Got the Mojo out today for a test run for the season. New auto Wake update seems pretty nice. It was 57 degF and cloudy with heavy fog when we launched at 12:30. We were only in the water for an hour and as we were driving away from the boat ramp to go home the sun came up and temp climbed to 81. Go figure lol.

The 100 lbs a minute doesn’t seem to apply to me with our ballast pumps. We had to set the 900s for like 11 minutes to fill and front at 14:30 for the hard tank+IBS.

Got the Mojo out today for a test run for the season. New auto Wake update seems pretty nice. It was 57 degF and cloudy with heavy fog when we launched at 12:30. We were only in the water for an hour and as we were driving away from the boat ramp to go home the sun came up and temp climbed to 81. Go figure lol.
The 100 lbs a minute doesn’t seem to apply to me with our ballast pumps. We had to set the 900s for like 11 minutes to fill and front at 14:30 for the hard tank+IBS.
Yep... Just a good looking boat! I've had the same with filling the bags and extending the time.

The Clearwater Foils DIY wake foiler project is UNDERWAY! I guess we will see what happens!

If you’re bored follow @unicornsurfcompany on Insta. It gets weird.

You know I got in up to my knees and it wasn’t as bad as I was thinking it would be. Would def suck to have to deal with it until May!

What kinda aspect are you going for. The liquid force I had was way too hard. The slingshot I have is so much more forgiving.

I am not inventing this, just assembling it. Check out the link.

Interesting. Looks more similar to the low aspect foil that was on my Liquid force foil fish. That one supposedly took less speed to get lift from. But in practice, I found that it was all or nothing. It would launch up, crest the surface, and then slam me down. Whereas with the Slingshot foil, I was able to ride consistently on the 2nd pull. Hard to tell how it's going to perform by those pictures, but it'll certainly be a cool project!!! Keep us updated.

For sure. Kind of why I bought the cheapo to start. I do want it to fly slowly but not be a bucking bronco. The kid that makes them flies it behind a tiny fishing boat!

Either way, glassing it has been kind of fun. It’s winter.

I also would buy a slingshot in a heartbeat if this seems fun—I am looking for a rougher water riding activity.

I got a pretty rad deal on my LF Foil Fish, but even after getting it setup with different masts, it was too difficult to master. I even talked to the guys at Liquid Force and they said it was really better for Kiting. I was able to get the Slingshot at employee cost due to a hookup I had, so that worked great. And this year's slingshot actually has fin boxes glassed into the board, so it'll be dual purpose as a foil board and a wakesurf board.
