    Default Greetings from Australia

    Hi all,

    Greetings from the land downunder, we have just taken delivery of our 2014 Outback V and just thought i'd say hi. Our 3 year old son was up behind the boat on his ez ski on the weekend and I can see many fun years ahead behind this great boat.

    I've lurked through these forums the past few weeks as we made the decision to buy and have found the information very useful, so thank you all.

    I had one quick question, the boat came we the OZ tower and in one of the storage compartment there was a bag full of 4 or 5 black straps. The label on the bag said that they go with the tower, but for the life of me I can't work out what they are for. Does anyone have any ideas?

    This is a pic of the boat out on the weekend.



    Regards,
    Azz...

    Azz - Welcome to the Moomba family and congratulations on the new Outback V! Hopefully an owner with OZ tower can answer your question. I have an Outback with earlier version tower, so not in a position to know anything about the OZ. On what lake do you boat? Where is home for you? - Deerfield

    Are they for the cover poles so that the poles don't fall/get knocked over?

    I'm near Canberra in Australia, the lake we ride is called Lake Burrinjuck, although the water level is dropping rapidly so may have to travel a bit further for fresh water shortly, unless we want to head to in the salt water.

    thanks for your reply: bimini cover poles? possibly perhaps once the bimini sock is on and the main strap attached to the tower, then these ones are used to attach the ends of the sock to the tower for more support.

    No, the poles that hold the mooring cover up from inside the boat/under the cover.

    Pretty sure mine has those as well. Still in the bag under one of the seats. I've been wondering what they were for.
