This boat is still a bit of a work in progress. I bought it at the end of October last year and have been looking forward to getting out on the lake as soon as the weather improves.
The boat was in generally decent shape, however needed some love. So far I've done the following:
-Full tune-up, fluids, filters, plugs, wires, cap & rotor, impeller, and exhaust manifolds and risers
-Chrome valve covers
-New amp and new speakers in the tower speakers
-Wakemakers 910lb bags in the rear, bag vent kit, & Replaced ballast drain pumps
-Replace through hull above waterline drain fittings with chrome ones
-Polish & Cleaning
-Numerous other minor repairs, TBI rebuild, etc
-Seadek center ballast / ski locker lid & bow area / swim grid
-Moomba decals on side and rear
-Krypt swiveling racks for surf boards and kneeboard.
It remains a work in progress, but I'm pretty happy so far.

Looking clean - looking good. Tired of hitting your head on the tower speakers? or was that just for more bimini coverage.

Great looking LSV. Its the first time I've seen that tower speaker set up above the tower like that. You might be starting a new trend. Next thing you know, boat manufacturers will be offering over tower speaker install option for an extra 500$.

there have been a lot of boats in years past with speakers on top of tower. sure it's due to the bimini designs and all the funky no longer basic round pipe towers that drove under the tower mounting the last 10 years.
I love his setup. I would bet when tower speakers are cranked it's not as loud in the cabin as under the tower mounting.

What Bimini did you go with?

I just bought this boat so that is the way the previous owner had it set up. I think he had the bimini mounted quite high and it hits the speakers. It looks a bit goofy though so I may forgo headroom for aesthetics and drop the bimini and speakers down.

It's mostly function over form currently but this may change. :cool:

Chris...did the 910 ballast bags fit with the stock input output hoses or did you get a new pump. I’ve got a Mobius but bags I ordered have top plugs and existing are lower rear to fit the short hoses. Thanks.

Our 04 Moomba Mobius LSV was our first wakeboard boat...had a lot of great memories and started surfing that boat back in ~2009.
We put the Moomba decals on it the last year. Sold it in 2015 and regretted it everyday until we bought our 21 Max this year..
You have a great boat! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210523/8ca69d2c1338750dc96a851a7b12803f.jpg

The Wakemakers ones I bought were plug and play with the original 3/4" lines. Mine came with 2 lower rear plugs as well as front and and a top plug. I have the fill & drain on the rear lowers, and I bought a vent kit that attaches to the top to vent any air that finds its way into the bags, or if they get over filled it will allow and escape path for the water.
This setup works fine, but my stock Gravity III pump takes a while to fill the bags. Typically I turn on the pump as soon as I leave the dock and let fill while I get everything set up. Let me know if you need pics or anything.

I quite like the look of the decal delete and modern lettering. That is giving me something to consider for future.

I caved to public pressure and moved the speaker back under the tower. (And it looks better)

If you have pics that would be great. Trying to figure what adaptors to extend hoses and unsure how exactly to measure diameter. Thanks.
