It appears that Moomba is done making a waterski boat. For 2014 it appears that the only Outback is the V. As a waterskier and owner of a Moomba direct drive, that is sad.

I saw this too but was laughing too hard to comment. A week later I'm good :)
This was the best post ever.
My buddy came over the other day (we are both OLD) and was all depressed, I asked why he was all moping around and he said that he and his wife had just got back from the doctor's and she had (now get this!) either Alzheimer's or aids but now HE couldn't remember (Holy $#!T)Quote:

No great loss either way, she doesn't wakeboard.
Goodness, I guess it is! I do turn 54 in a month.
Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on that sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Dylan Thomas
Always loved this one but now it's starting to be about me. Also, I (hang on as sec-- have to pee). (Back now) Uh, can't remember what else. Where's my shoes? Ma? Ma?
I have a 07 and a 08 Outback I bought new. We use them for barefoot skiing and show ski team. Was planning on replacing the 07 for a new Outback. I guess I have to go back to Malibu or MC. We really liked the Outbacks since the Malibu's and MC were $20,000 + more. Hard to use a V drive for barefooting and pulling pyrimads. Just wanted to say I really enjoyed the DD Outbacks. I even got 2 friends to buy new Outbacks.
Thanks for making the DD affordable.
barefooter - Before going Malibu or MC, call the Skiers Choice factory. It has the molds and I bet will build you another Outback, if asked. Probably have to place the order through a dealer. - DeerfieldQuote:

I don't think I'll ever sell my 96 Boomerang either. I would like more room but don't want to give up the wake.
Anyone notice supra is down to Only three boats for 2014, SA, SC, and 242 . Moomba only has four now
Not sure the release tomorrow is just a surf system, but wow, the amount of sc boats has dramatically changed in 7 years.
changed hopefully for the better and allow them to build fewer lines at a greater profit margin to keep them successful.
heard enough that they still have the molds for the dd boats and seems that everyone here would steer prospective buyers to skiers if they were nosing around here for a new build dd so kind of a win for skiers not having to keep "stale" inventory in dealers showrooms but rather build as ordered..
maybe skiers releases a 25th anniversary boomerang on the old outback dd hull as a limited edition and do one every few years, build 50 copies or so(market demand) to keep the line alive and at a pricepoint cc and mc can't touch :)
barebones, no tower or many options..
Group buy? I wonder if you could get Moomba to do a group buy build of DD's every 3rd year or so.Quote:
