boat looks sweet Ian, kinda funny seeing it parked next to the sleds and very gratefull that no one was hurt.
Sounds like it is gonna end up a happy ending thanks to the good people around here.
Rick T is da man!.....another reason we all love our Moombas, thanks for being so involved!
Ian, glad you made it safely and boat looks awesome, love the green.
Love this Moomba family! Great looking boat.
Ian, sorry to hear about the trip home man. Good thing is like you said, the family including you are just fine.Quote:

At least she didnt come off the trailer.
The above is one of the main reasons i stayed in the SC family. Between SC and AWS i wasnt ready to go and be just some buyer, i like the faimly feel SC and AWS give you.
Could not agree more.Quote:

WOW!!! Bummer on the boat but so glad to read no one is hurt.
Words can't describe how much that sucks. Glad everyone is OK. The mental anguish will only last a few months.
So amazed with the SC teams dedication to CUSTOMER.
Not only did Mr. Tinker make the offer for helping out here, he also reached out to Club Royale and asked them to contact me and take care of whatever I needed! Talk about amazing!
What makes this more meaningful, and what I didn't share with anyone until now is that the insurance was not officially bound at the time of the accident, so all repairs were coming out of my pocket.
This just reinforces how great of a decision I've made (twice) to buy a Skiers Choice product!
And a perfect example of why me, and many others, will probably never leave the SC lineQuote:

No, you got insurance today and that accident happened next week.
Man that boat is sharp! The SC guys are really standup guys.
I'm also pretty sure that since the boat was in tow the truck insurance would have to cover it.
Better read the whole policy. It is possible that if the boat was financed and released without insurance in place the dealer's policy would have to cover it.
This is how it worked when we bought our first LSV.
With the Mojo they had the insurance in place as soon as the loan was final and i hooked the boat up.
I thought just like with a car, if you put a loan on it the bank has to have the insurance information before the dealer can release the property to you? Maybe not? IDK but every time i buy a vechicle thats the way it works.
Insurance is different in each state. Also, the policy that is "forced" due to a loan would not have comprehensive and would not cover the incident, in this case. At least that would be how it works in FL, the insurance that the loan has to have only covers the bank's interest. The bank may require the owner to have full coverage.
Well, did the damage occur to Ian's part of the boat or the bank's part?
The insurance company didn't decline a claim, it was a moral issue - I don't feel right about asking them to pay knowing that I didn't even pay for the policy when the accident happened. Now with SC helping out the repair expense is much less.
if more folks in 'Mercia thought like this our country might not be in such a tail spin to hellQuote:

God bless you both (all three) and your Dad as I'm sure he's as excited as anyone.
First, I love the colors and look of that boat. You nailed it.
Second, sorry to hear about the accident. Everyone is ok, and like you said, nothing that can't be fixed.
Third, awesome job by Moomba / SC. I guarantee that whatever expense they just incurred to help you out was nothing compared to the brand loyalty that kind of act creates. Best advertising you could possibly have, and probably at a fraction of the advertising / marketing cost.
This is indeed awesome, and another reason why we continue to tell anyone who will listen why they need to buy a Moomba or Supra; great boats and unheard of customer service!Quote:

sweet racks, think you will find you have the handles upside downQuote:

Ian, with the handles faceing down you will find they do hit the tower due to the forward slant of the tower. you'll have to swap the forks too. when you get them mounted on the tower it makes a lot more sense.
advise- have the single main alan head screw on the clamp facing inside the boat. this will make it super easy to remove/install from inside the boat.
second advise-you'rs will most likely need to have the corners filed down for clearance when they pivot--its that piece in the above photo that has 2 allen screws visible in the photo-goes from the swivel to the bar that holds the racks.

hope this helps
not to go to far off topic but whats the width of the pipe so i can order racks
Thanks Daze - makes total sense

Ian, I apologize for missing this post and the pictures of the boat, but wow I didn't think that much green would look good honestly from the site's boat creator, but dude was I ever proved wrong! that thing looks amazing!! I can't wait to see pictures of it out on the water!!
I cringed when I saw the pictures of the accident but agree with everyone else, so glad it was nothing worse and the fact that yes, think goodness the three of you were not injured. :)
Now... With these goodies your getting! You're gonna make me go broke! LOL!!!
And SC just really showed how much they value and respect their customers! I give Rick and SC a standing ovation after that!!
Looks great man and I hope you get as much enjoyment, plus much more on this boat than you did on your previous one!
I can vouch for Stacy's plan on this one. I saw it a couple of weeks ago and let me tell you he had those racks on and off in about 30 sec. and they worked great and looked great. Made me want some.Quote:
