Just wondering if anyone has installed the flow on an LSV and how well it works.
I'd like to know the answer to this as well...$1200 plus install seems pretty hefty to save myself waiting a few minutes for the ballast to fill.
I personally would probably pay for the dealer to install and I'm assuming the mod would be about $2k all said and done in that case...in general I trust myself with many modifications to my belongings, but bolting something through my boat hull may be a different story!
It shouldn't cost more then a couple hours labor. 3-500 tops.Quote:

Regular is insane good.
As for Goofy we are still working on it but its improving it and giving it it more length.
Mind you I'm talking Mojo,
I had a solid wave on my LSV both sides, and if the Flow works as I have seen on my Mojo then you will be happy and should be able to run just 1100s in the rear with center and IBS and have a great wave.
On my LSV I was running essentially 1500 rears.

Right now I've got IBS, Center, 1100 Rear and 400 under port seats. I haven't been on the water yet to test it.. :)

Nothing under the port seat? Maybe I should re-purpose that pump for an xlink?Quote:

I believe I recall a picture from another thread where this was discussed and it was the bag pushed out the fiberglass (noticeably) so it was worrying. Guess if you have a bag that when filled wont push on the fiberglass, you should be OK.
I'm running a bag under the seat as well, however I haven't seen any movement. My boat has L brackets from the factory that brace that section. Forgetting to turn the pump off as it lifts everyone up and freaks them out is a different matter...
mmandley, what speeds where you running?
Regular I want to say 10.5 to 11 mostly. I had no brackets when I cut the cooler out of mine. Not sure why but thats why mine began to bow outwards towards the center of the boat. I stopped using the bag under the seats because I was afraid it would spider crack the fiberglass.Quote:
