Winter Projects?
There are some talented individuals on here who have done some great projects on their Moombas. What are your winter project plans?
Here is what I am thinking about:
1. Gravity IV Ballast.. for surfing as much as anything.. started buying up parts for plumbing it in.
2. Graphics.. either replace 06 logo with 08 or do something like the Zdecals setup..
3. platform grip.. probably go with the seadek set up..
4. Tower speakers.. factory kenwoods in the tower could use a little oomph.
WOuld love WetSounds Pro 80s.. but not right now~! May put
WetSound XS-650's in the cans though..
5. Might look for some swivel board racks..
Lets hear what you guys got planned.Last edited by 04OUTBACK; 10-19-2008 at 10:01 AM.

I picked up a new 08 XLV this year and it came with everything but tower speakers, lights and swivel board racks (not even an option on Moombas yet). Over the course of summer I did a few upgrades.
So far I've added a set of Polk DB tower speakers, ltower ights, LED lights throughout the interior, Sirius Radio and an amp. This winter the plans are:
- Upgrade to Wetsounds Pro 80 speakers (like 04Outback, I want something a little louder, word is these are the best).
- Swivel Board Racks
- Change out the rear 400lb sacks to 750's.
Its goign to be a LONG winter here in Canada so I'll probably space a few of them out so it gives me a reason to play with my boat in the middle of winter.

Jclay,
yes the XS-650s will fit. There was a Supra owner on the supra forum who is a WetSounds dealer..and he had 4 in his supra tower bar.. (he was selling it to put pro 60s or 80s on.
He said definite improvement over stocks...Brad

great, with that being said here is my list, also in no particular order.
Buy and install perfect pass
Buy and install a 10 or 12 sub
Add another amp dedicated to the sub and interior speakers
add wet sounds 650's to the roswell bar (replacing the stock Kenwood's)
Add a 2nd battery
Replace the green gauge lights with blue
Last install underwater lighting under the swim platform
I'm not sure if I can afford all of it, but I will definitely finish the stereo and add the 2nd battery.RIDE: 2002 Moomba Mobius V

Well I still have some to finish from last winter. Those would be;
Finish installing my depth sounder.
Finish installing my sub
Finish installing my amp.
New projects;
Install my new Zdecals custom graphics (some of you have seem the proofs)
Install my Seadek platform pad (been sitting in the garage at the lake for 2 mnths)
Install flip over bow light.
On my would like to but probably not gonna happen list;
Plumb my boat for the ballast bags I bought from Ed. I was thinking that even though I had no compartments for the bags, I could get all the hoses run with the pump in the floor so I would just pull out the bag, quick connect the fitting and flip the switch.

Hi Brad,
I've done alot of upgrades to my boat already so my list of winter projects is pretty short:
Add a three outlet heater
Maybe figure out how to seal the footbox so the sub doesn't sound so boomy, or build a custom sealed enclosure.
That's about it!
