agreed. our '06 supra launch 20ssv was the most trouble free boat we have owned..... and one that I could actually turn a wrench on pretty easy.

congrats on the purchase! it looks like a really nice machine. I love the all white!

Does the decal remover really work well? I have old registration numbers to switch out.

Nice man!!
Love to see people excited.

Looks like a nice ride. I’m fairly new here as well, but seems like a good group of helpful guys.

Ray Hubbard is our main lake. Lewisville is fun and you will enjoy it. Lewisville is the scene for Dfw. Busy weekends. You will see several fellas from here at Lewisville on the regular. Ray Roberts is not far if you want a peaceful day.

Twill, congrats and great looking boat. What wakeshaper did you get with the boat? Do you have any pics?

Brandon, does the decal remover work well? The large tribals on my boat need to go.

Decal remover wheels do work very well.
Keep it low and slow so as not to overheat the gel but they make a hard job easy.
Just be aware that after years you're likely to have different colored gel coat underneath.

I am not sure the exact type of wakeshaper. It had been put on aftermarket - fixed piece on both sides with a plate that rotates out and down to your desired adjustments. I'm going to run back to the boatyard today to get some measurements so I'll take pics. I need to get some covers for the wetsound tower speakers since they are sitting outside right now.

Does anyone have any good ideas or suggestions on best practices for fully covering a boat when stored outside? Not sure how worried I need to be about trying to keep the hull away from sunlight?

The sunlight will fade your gelcoat over time. I had custom canvas flaps that came with my boat that I attached to the sides and they hung down to about the trailer level. I am sure they were a custom job, but I think any canvas shop or custom upholstery place could make something similar.

That is a fantastic idea! Thanks for sharing. My boat has a cover for the front and back (2 pieces). I wonder if that would be sufficient to add side flaps like you have here to supplement the existing cover.
