Build questions: walk thru screen, removal backseat...etc

[Precious Roy]

Can someone explain what these actually are good for when building a mooomba boat?? Is it worth it?
Walk thru screen?
Removable back seat? Meaning... is the feature where it slides up to create another seat looking back?
Surf pipe- I know what it is... but can you add it on later if you decide you want it? Is it worth it.

Thanks!

Walk through screen: not worth it. Something else to store most of the time, ugly brackets in the walk through are permanent, and taking the bow filler cushion and standing it up under the windshield serves the same purpose.

Seat backs: the good part of that - behind the captains seat - is standard now. I don't know anyone who actually uses the center seat back.

Surf pipe: I don't have it and wish I did. It can absolutely be added later but its kind of a pain in the ass (or expensive install) to do after the fact.

great info korey. thanks

so the walk thru screen is a screen that goes between the windshield and the bow? not really understanding what it is and its purpose....??

It stands vertically in the walk through, under the windshield. Its purpose is to close off the cockpit from wind/rain. Like i said we take the filler cushion and stand it vertically in the same space.

I kind of wish I had the walk through screen, but not necessary. I wouldn't buy the seat back, I've used ours once. Putting a surf pipe in after the fact was not fun, I will always order that factory from now on.

Here is a picture I found of the screen. The paper peels off to reveal a black tinted plastic.

here in the desert a windscreen is a waste of monies. when we lived in green bay it got a lot of use on late fall days and coming back in the dark. keeps the cold breeze off the ladies. it was worth having but I never checked off a box. was always included. I would say your use or lack of will be related to your location and times you are out. don't ask us on here, ask the boss storing it is usually pretty easy. we stuffed it alongside the gunnels behind the passenger seat storage. always somewhere to stick it out of the way.

convertible rear seat, waste of monies imo.

surfpipe, that's all personal preference. we've never had one so can't say we would like it or not and are not getting one with current boat we are inking on.
