Goose, when are we going to be able to build a Max using the "build your Moomba" link?
(I basically wanna play with colors because I'm bored)
Got a message from Drew Tinker (Rick's son) that said that option wouldn't be available until sometime in September.Quote:

Local dealership has one for sale, here is a link to all the photos.
Anyone have any experience getting things 3D printed? I think we are going to try and 3D print some engine trays and trays for the rear lockers

Could draw it up on cad for ya, only quoted for 3d printing , the part I needed was cheaper for me to machine, probably going to fab an aluminum on for my Craz this winterQuote:

I was gonna do aluminum too until the fab guy said it was gonna be like $400 just for the sheet!Quote:

That's crazy. Find another supplier. Aluminum sheet is not that expensive. You could buy a break from Harbor Freight and the material and build several for that price.Quote:

No kidding , could build it it out of high polish ss for less than that
Mine made from 1/4" HDPE was reasonable to build and does the job. Some SS screws and some aluminum angle.
I don't have near the depth to work with, but it's still nice to have.

Brett, the Moomba boat builder is supposed to be up mid September. Sorry about delay on that one. On the hull and deck, for 2018, the Helix and Max hull color matches the accent. So in the boat you had picture of, the hull is black because accent is black. On the deck, the accent also wraps up onto the deck. So most of the deck gunnel is black on that boat. The "Deck" color is really the color inside the boat and we kept it only white or platinum for 2018. We have had some requests for colored insides, but we actually do that for cost and efficiencies. It is a LOT easier for us to gel and keep them at a higher quality at factory by keeping them white or platinum. The colored decks do look nice, but they get scratched easily in the plant creating a lot of rework. You can still get the Mondo, Craz, Mojo with the colored insides, but that is another one of the items that make the models different. Hope that explains it and why.Quote:

I had discussed the boat builder issue with Drew Tinker on FB and he said that it would be available for the Max at some point in September.
Is it too new for anyone to have taken one for a spin yet? If not, I have to know how it performed! Might be tempted to flip my Craz if the money is right.
The sales rep we worked with told us there wasn't any big changes so we bought the Craz just a month ago. Probably gonna wish we had waited for the 2018s

It's not a brick, it's a BARGE. After seeing the Max that is the only thing I did not like about it, especially looking at it's rear end! :oQuote:

I totally agree. I've been going back & fourth about getting a new boat. Do I really want the extra monthly payment of a 80k-90k + boat or will a 65k Max do it for me? [emoji23]Quote:

Not because only certain models have certain features.
I want the Max but I want all the other crap to.
Why can't I pay extra money to get Flow 3.0, Bimini pockets, triton board racks, gator step & a colored deck?
All I hear is "sorry that's not available on the max but it is available on the Mondo, craz & mojo".
Ughhhhh first world problems 🤦🏼*♂️

Brett, you got a remember that this is the first year out for this boat, so they want to get it out the door as quick as possible. I am pretty sure that in another year all of those options you want will be available. I agree they should be able to do this upfront but they're probably just trying to keep it simplified to start with.

Also can we see what's behind this fiberglass wall? Any room for multiple subs? [emoji136]🏼*♂️

I know the one at the dealer close by has a sub there.Quote:

All of the locations that are shown could have speakers installed. As Padge said, we do offer a 10" sub by the footrest, but I am pretty sure you could mount a 12" there and the back side is easily accessible on the Max if you wanted to actually mount a box behind it for better performance.
If you get one and do a custom stereo install, I would love to see it. Lots of potential with this boat....
Well now I have to buy it just to show you the stereo install. SOLD....Quote:

your boat is broken, of course the only solution is a new one!Quote:

Being able to motor around with autowake keeping the boat level would be badass. And play the "salesman game" where you present the marginal cost to her in "monthly payment" rather than in thousands of dollars. $20 a month is easier to justify than $4000 or whatever.Quote:

Doesn't this tactic work on your wife Trayson? [emoji848][emoji23]

My wife would tell me "it's your money, do what you want with it!" LOLOL.Quote:

I owe less than $15k on my XLV and have a tiny payment that means I can afford to take it out all the time and feed it gas. I'd have to take a hard look at the numbers of what it'd take to MAX me out. :-)
Here's a cool feature that I hadn't seen in other pictures yet...
