    As far as Skiers Choice, they produce a fantastic product. It’s not perfect but they are always improving. The number of huge and very small upgrades from my 18 to 19 SL was impressive. A lot of the improvements on the 2019 were unknown to me before using the product. It’ll never be perfect unless they stop advancing features and technology. I’ll take the incredible product and a few quirks with it.
    Did you sell your 18 SL - red/black?

    Lets talk about the 2nd camera located on the underneath of the tower. Can't see shit out of it when the bimini is closed...nothing but the bimini cover. When the bimini is open you still see half bimini/half of the water, rider and back of boat.

    They changed the location of the upper camera on the 2019s and I think they should warranty the swap to the new camera location on the 2018s.

    Really these type of things should not exist on a $168k msrp boat!!!
    I tried to get the new mount from PTM for the camera, they want to only sell me the whole system, camera and all for around $650.. ugh.

    My dealer pointed out that the tower cam was obstructed and suggested against ordering it.

    Is the camera mount anything like the mirror mounts? You can buy mirror mount extensions.

    I would think a mom and pop machine shop could whip up something for a couple hundred bucks.

    I would use it all the time when pulling up a surfer if it worked!! That way I could see over the people sitting up on the rear cushions...my crew likes to sit back there and get a good view of the surf action and I cant see through them to see the surfer. The grab handle camera many times is blocked by their legs or has so that option is out.

    The upper camera seems like a last minute add on that they were up against it on the production and didnt have a chance to change the design before the orders were already needing to be filled. There is no way they tested the camera and didnt know that the view was obstructed.

    We can't ride on our transom while under way, so the grab bar works perfect for us.. the tower cam is good with the bimini deployed

    It’s illegal here too to ride on the sun deck and transom, also utilize the grab bar camera and massive PTM mirror.

    I went down to Oregon last month with a dive crew to locate 2 missing boaters who were riding on the swim deck of a Wakesetter and disappeared into the water. Where we located them indicated they were about 30 seconds from being on shore. Avoid areas where exhaust fumes exist. We get a lot drownings each year and each one is unique but the avoidable ones are frustrating.
