Glad it's you and not me this time!

It'll be you soon. Spring is just a few days away & KG is loooong way away from shootin' tunes across the H2O.

The LSV has a good one from behind the observer's seat into the ski locker, along the "ski locker ceiling" if you will, then there's a tube attached to the ceiling in there just ahead of the ski locker opening and you can go right back from there to the hump below the driver's feet. A lot easier than around the bow under the seats. Very easy to reach and to fish through too.

If only this thread existed 4 years ago when I initially wired it!

The brace is not an up and down structural device but a side brace. Its there to help add rigidity to the fiber glass making the passenger dash so when you use the walk threw that section isnt weak and gets broken. I would think you can trim some of it down but if you get to trimming to much i would cut some alluminum angle bar and screw it in place to keep the structure tight.

Looking good mang

i have 4 sets of RCAs plus the power wires for my WS420 plus my subwoofer speaker wire all jammed into that secret tunnel, i think i used all the space in mine up

I think that's exactly what's in mine too.

I got a few packages in the mail today - a bunch of 8awg power and ground that I intend to use to power my LED's and Transom LEDs - I experienced a bit of dimming with the shared 12awg when everything was on, so I figured I will re-run the main lines and use a relay to power everything.

The second package was a Tantrum Tow Ropes wireless speed controller! I saw the manufacturers post on here (I think it got deleted?) and then stumbled across an eBay auction from them with an opening bid at $.99 and no reserve - I put in a max bid of ~$100 and ended up snagging it for a little less than that shipped! Not bad, and I figure at that price its well worth being the "test dummy" - I'll be sure to post a separate opinion thread once I get a chance to play with it.

Whats in the box:

It comes with the receiver, remote, and an arm-band that holds the remote. I think I'll probably hook up a carabiner or something to the remote and attach it to the handle, rather than my body, but I guess I'll have to play around and see what is easiest.

To give you an idea of the size of the remote;

Interesting let us know how that works. I don't know what handle you have but keep in mind that when you fall it will be slapping in the water the whole time. I don't think I would trust a carabiner. Maybe solid mount it to the handle.
