    The clevis pin is supposed to be secured by a split pin or moused with safety wire, etc. Even a small zip tie through the hole in the pin and around the clevis will work fine.

    We love ours. Ditto Scott. You can get a very surfable wave just with large ballast bags and slamming one side. If you're willing to tinker even a little with a suck gate, etc. you can get a really...

    Our original also failed. I just replaced it with Fulton XLT (141133). So far, it operates significantly better than the original and it has grease zerks so it should be easier to maintain. I only...

    I have two concerns with putting it into gear while on the trailer but I would be OK doing this as long as you are careful and aware.
    1. The cutlass bearing will be dry/un-lubricated. You can engage...

    It's a float sensor so the fundamental problem is that the fuel is moving around due to the boat's roll and pitch; a more accurate sensor doesn't change that. Mine moves as much as a 1/4 when in an...

    That's silicone lubricant, not silicone sealant. It would be a better choice than a petroleum based lubricant (like Vaseline) but it's probably a moot point for this application. I also find that...

    Might not be the same. As far as I know, GM TBI is around 15psi, not the much higher pressure used in multi-port FI but all fuel injection got dubbed "high pressure" because pressure for carbs was...

    Oh yeah, it doesn't make sense that wires for the light would be on both side.

    I'd guess the two small wires are for the all-around nav light.

    In my experience, the transmission cooler screen has always caught any bits. I always have a little bit of fluctuation. I notice more fluctuation at first, like the thermostat doesn't open right away...

    Sounds like you're on the right track. Can you get the deploy angle to 0 degrees? That's the sweet-spot for me, 11 was definitely too much.
  12. Send him the picture and find out. I think that...

    Send him the picture and find out. I think that GSA works just fine with >95% of boats so his first reaction is "it should work ok". When I talked to him, it took a bit for him to remember the...

    Are you looking for a functional repair or an aesthetic repair? Marine-tex epoxy is great stuff for filling/repairing holes and would be a great choice for a functional repair. It comes in white and...

    A few more bells and whistles, rack and peanut steering and you'll have re-created The Homer.

    Agreed, I actually found it easier to use trigonometry. I taped a string to the hull up front, pulled it tight and then tied to something behind the boat right at the height that it touched the...

    On my first "just use the template" attempt, I got an acceptable stow angle but it wasn't tight to the swim deck and the deploy angle was greater than 18 degrees or whatever which was what the...

    I was operating under the assumption that the 21V was the same hull but it is slightly different. If it's vertical (not sloped back at all) and the mount lands on a flat part, then it could be a...

    Well, on my first attempt, I held the template up, drilled holes, attached everything and was ready for water in about 4 hours...

    Upon closer inspection, I think sandm is right and the hulls are very similar but just slightly different. The LSV transom is a bit recessed for the exhaust and trim tab, like MJHSupra's SSV but the...

    It's going to get ugly.

    Yes that's the same hull/transom. There is enough stow room. When we are slammed, the swim deck and tab are dragging a bit but it's not really a big problem. If I had it to do over, I would raise the...

    You don't have to use a bucket of water to test the power and float switch. The bilge pump has a little knob that you turn to test it. The knob is attached to the float so it's the same as using...

    I think the 21V is the same hull as the LSV started using in '06. I installed GSA on our '07 LSV. I've been meaning to write a bit of a review/story so I finally did:...
  24. Go Surf Assist / WaveControl system on '07 LSV: Love it but not recommended

    Summary: I installed the WaveControl system (same as Go Surf Assist but bought from WakeMakers) and installed it on our ’07 LSV. We love it, but BE WARNED: GSA told me that their kit cannot be used...

    I agree with all that, but my post was really meant as a bit of a joke: The irony of costanza's post was perfect in this thread.
