    Just my $.02 but the first 4 are required:

    1100s (and the engine divider panel savers)
    IBS
    FAE (surprised this wasn't mentioned)
    SuckG8

    1433 Prop (check the don't kill your engine threads if you add the ballast above)

    Ballast Pump upgrade. It's a time/money thing - you can use the stock GIII but it takes a long time to fill/drain. I added 3 Johnsons and kept the GIII to run the stock bags (under side seats and in ski locker)

    Dual battery w/ VSR?

    HDPE swim platform (not everyone thinks it's necessary- I did it and can see where it would dig in if the original platform were still there)

    Thanks all for the info. I got her home and it actually fits in the 82.5" garage with some air let out of the tires
    I have a suck gate ready and will be getting a monster bimini rack because that is the first thing the wife would want for the kids.
    I think I will take it out and see how it surfs as is and go from there.

    If your having problems getting it in the garage also consider a drop hitch.

    When you finally go out and use that SuckG8 don't just start surfing. It is well worth time getting it tuned in before you put someone in the water just to find it is no good. Make adjustments with wake plate, speed (between 9-11 MPH), SurfG8 positioning and move your meat bags (people) around while watching the wave. Even when it looks great it may have no push for instance but just keep adjusting. Check what others with your boat have done as far as how much to fill, list if any, wake plate position, weight up front and so on. You will get used to it before it is time to put it away hopefully. Write down what you did so you have it for next season.

    I only have a template I created for the "blade" that is generic. It doesn't include the cut out a the bottom or the part for the handle. Those things depend on which handle you use. It will give you some idea of what to do. If you print it this should be 7" across the bottom and 9" high. This is what I use but there are plenty of other shapes and sizes being used.

    Also take a look at this thread. There is a ton of info found here. It gets more refined as people try new things at the end of the posts but read through it one night and you will get the idea https://forum.moomba.com/showthread....n-Moomba-boats

    Don't forget to reinforce the engine compartment with the upgraded bags. Wake makers sells a kit or you can get supplies from a hardware store.

    Definitely go with the Cosmos suction cup with the aluminum handle. Lots of other ones out there but from everything I read before I bought mine, this one has the most suction and therefore the most "staying power". I made my suckg8 at the end of last summer so I only got to use it once but with that suction cup I didn't have any problem with it moving. I also have an '07 Mobius LSV and can tell you the suckg8 made a world of difference in my wake even with the stock ballast. I am also in the process of upgrading to larger bags etc.

    X2 on that. Hasn't fallen off after MANY hours of use. I have a para cord leash on it just in case though.
