I have an '07 Outback V, and the wave is great with enough weight. I have a 750 in the locker, 750 on the surf side seat, and a 400 on the floor in the bow, plus the center factory bag full. Let me...

Hey everyone,

I have a 2007 Outback V with the Indmar 325, 580 hours on the boat.

Today on the lake, after about 3 hours of riding/surfing, my CEL came on and the boat dropped speed. I checked...

2007 Outback V, purchased new in April 2008.

546 hours on the clock.

Ballast drain pump failed (warranty)
Starboard locker strut failed (warranty)
Bilge pump failed (warranty)
Had problems...

I put one on my '07 OBV a couple of years ago. I bought the pump from West Marine, and all the other fittings from Lowes. I replaced one of my engine block drain plugs with a water hose...

Thanks for the info! I live in North Austin, but my boat is on 620 so we'll probably go the southern route.

How deep is the Perd on average? Is it deep enough to surf, or just wakeboard/ski?

Where do you put in on the Perd? We are thinking about heading out there for the first time this weekend. I couldn't find much info on boat ramps, so we were thinking that Pace Bend would be the best...

We are thinking about heading to Lake Georgetown this weekend instead of Belton, mainly because of the drive time. Ever been on Lake Georgetown? It looks smallish, but I'm not expecting it to be near...

What's the water like on Lake Belton on weekends? We have reached the point of summer where Lake Austin is just too crowded for comfort. Can you ride during the day at all or is the water too rough?...

Yeah it was at the 360 bridge. It can be a little nuts there at the end of a long day. I know this all too well, and usually avoid it on weekends, but we had some friends that really wanted to go...

That guy was a jerk, and he'll get his one day, probably sooner than later.

My boat toolbox includes a utility knife and dive mask for just such occasions. We have hydrilla problems on our lake so...

Yeah we called in their boat numbers and plate to the cops. Wish they would have gotten them, but oh well. Their day is coming. Karma is a cold heartless bitch when she finally comes calling.

I...

Right on, I'm the guy with the lights on before the sun is even close to setting. It amazes me how many folks run with no lights until totally dark.

We were headed in to load, but I think today...

So we are fast-idling back to the dock today, not quite dark but not quite daylight. We are listening to the Longhorns wrap up the NCAA regional on the radio, and in my rear-view mirror I see the...

Just be careful when lowering it. The tower on my '07 OBV will rest on the upper hull on the front of the boat when fully lowered.

I have a couple of the super cheap orange lift jackets that I use...

So if the main valve opens when any of the fill switches are turned on, water will flow into all bags if the boat is at speed.

If I'm reading this right, in order to fill one bag but not the...

I had to replace my single axle trailer a couple of years ago due to being hit by a drunk/high driver. It's a 2007, and cost to buy a new one was $3,400. I thought about upgrading to the dual axle,...

I'm hoping for 250 this year. We bought our boat new in April of '08, and just hit 450 yesterday, so I think we can do it.

We ride year round, and from April through October we are out at least 3...

Wow, nice pics. Looks like it'd be worth the haul down a dirt road to me!

The quick connect fittings on your factory bags should screw right into the new bags.

My 750's are setup with the bottom hole, towards the rear of the boat, to the drain pump. The top front hole...

That's a nice looking boat brother. That break-in was the longest 10 hours I've ever experienced, but it's worth it.

It would drive me crazy to have to stand in the snow and stare at that boat sitting in my driveway.

And I'm angry cause it's 65 and raining here in Texas! Makes me feel not quite so bad.

Hope...

Dang. I shudder to think how much fuel you burned that day! Was the wake clean at 20mph?

Full 750's are too much weight in the rear, mine(07 OBV) bounces with that much weight at wakeboard speeds. I'm not good enough at wakeboarding yet to need that much weight anyway.

I did ride with...

Here is a video of my 2007 OBV surf wave. I have a 750 in the LR and factory bag in the ski locker:

It gets bigger with more peeps in the boat, but...

Haha I have actually considered picking them up, and THEN going to gas the boat, and just get out and stand there staring at the gas pump until someone says something.
