How about a vid? This is trip #4 to powell this year, so we are off to a good start! This was for a buddys birthday - the girls call him 'boatdaddy'!

That's my 12 year old at the helm with one of his buddies, my 10 year old daughter and one of her friends in the boat. He did an awesome job backing the boat off the trailer, picking me up at the dock and later dropping me off at the dock and driving the boat onto the trailer. They're never to young to teach.

Thanks Greg. I see you are running an Acme 1617 on your '07 LSV. What are you running for a top end speed and RPM at WOT??? I want to get a new prop and have been debating between the 1433 and 1617. There has been a lot of good discussion on the forum about this subject but wanted to ask somebody with "my" boat. With my stock prop (OJ 13.7x17.5), my WOT tops out at 39 MPH and 4500 RPMs. This is with only me in the boat and calm winds and water. I still like to ski occasionally so I can't afford to lose a lot of top end but would like to add some power for surfing as I just added 1100s in the rear and a 750 IBS.
This morning

Acme 537 13.5 X 16 if you can believe it. It's honestly been all the prop I want and need. It has been fine pulling around 3500 pounds of ballast surfing at 10mph with a suck gate. The only time it's an issue is when we take off without the rudder straight and it takes a while for the wave to form. But we never have any trouble getting up to speed. But if I do a faster, straight surf takeoff, the wave forms plenty quick. For wakeboarding, I'll most often only ride with the front 1180 bag full. occasionally I'll fill the rear bags halfway. But again, it doesn't seem to have any trouble getting up to speed. And I also slalom at about 30mph, so the prop handles that well. I still get that great balance with top end and fuel economy not suffering.
Lots of people will say more low end than I have, but I've been happy with how my boat performs and don't feel the need to compromise the top end or fuel economy.
Already on the list Trayson, I've been stalking your post for a week or so now. You seem to have the XLV figured out. Bags and a some sort of wake shaped are first on the list. Does Wakemakers carry the 1180 bag?
yep, they do,

That's crazy. Smaller 13" diameter with a 16" pitch? Sounds like a prop for an offshore race boat.

Planning on it. An old friend had an old direct drive outback that I drove a good bit. I'm looking forward to learning the nuances of this v drive as far as the backing up and handling. Been reading all the help threads on here and the owners manual while I'm waiting on her to get here.
Of all the forums I've been on, team talk, Malibu crew, and even the Supra forum, you guys are by far the most welcoming and most helpful.

Throwback to last weekend when I poached a ride on the bad boy supra with the G23 alongside getting some video...

I dunno. it sounds odd to me too. but I'm happy with the performance of it. I know it's a fairly common prop that a lot seem to be happy with.
I guess I figure "it it ain't broke, don't fix it".
Here's a thread I had when I convinced myself to stay with my Acme 537.

Had a great day on the lake yesterday. The water is still a bit chilly at 61 degrees. The whole family got out and had fun. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cd5430d389.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2c6ffb9fd9.jpg

Water's warming up, was 58 on Monday while surfing. full 3mm wet suit goes a long way in Northern Utah waters.
Finally got back on the water this weekend! Way too many hours working on the outside, it was a wreck. Turned from "chalk" white to gloss white, all new graphics and swim platform. It was worth every minute. I got a lot of the vinyl done and hope to finish that by end of summer. Finishing up the large piece of the sundeck this week.

That new XLV graphic with the updated Moomba logo looks awesome! Fantastic job!

Looking good 5:00! Very nice work.
I have tint on my window and of course you can't be in the seat and see out of it at night. But that's honestly not an issue because I rarely if ever drive from the seat w/o the bolster up. There's just too much of a chance to encounter a stick or a log floating in the water to risk the more limited view of seated (even in the daylight).
I got myself a set of clear lenses for a pair of oakleys that I didn't wear that much and those are my "night" driving glasses. Just something to keep the wind off my eyes.
You can see my darkness of tint in this pic from last year:

Thanks! It is hard to see but it is Maroon with black outline on the "Moomba" from Domed Numbers. The XLV graphics are black with a maroon outline. I took an existing font and tweaked the crap out of it to my liking, printed and layered on my vinyl cutter. A ton of work. The rest are obviously the Masque font that most don't like but I do. Since we are stripping EVERYTHING from the boat including vinyl we are changing from Black and gray to maroon and lighter gray.
I wanted to bring it up to date and give it a little edge. I didn't replace the giant Gravity Games logo and I am good with that.
a few shots from our Lake Powell trip. This was a high school graduation trip with 25 kids, 5 adults, 2 houseboats, 3 ski boats. We had a blast!
So we use our boat for some cool and unique things in Portland. On Saturday, we launched the boat and headed over to downtown Portland. We got in some foilboarding (crashing), some wakeboarding and some surfing.
Afterwards, we docked the boat on the Portland waterfront and walked over to "cart-lab". It's a sit down restaurant with a full bar and everything, but you order off the menu and the food comes from some of the local food carts. Portland is pretty famous for it's food cart scene, so that was cool to try out. And walking distance from the public dock. It was a little nerve racking to walk away from the boat with $4,500 (retail) worth of boards on the rack... But thankfully nothing happened.
Getting good use of the overhead rack with the foil board...

After that we got back in the boat and cruised over to Waterfront Park. We drifted along the sea wall and helped ourselves to the featured Concert. Yep, the one and only Sir Mix-a-Lot. I'm an old school hip-hop geek, so I was loving it.

downtown Portland looks pretty cool at night from the water:
