    Default Direct Drives are Gone.

    It appears that Moomba is done making a waterski boat. For 2014 it appears that the only Outback is the V. As a waterskier and owner of a Moomba direct drive, that is sad.

    My buddy came over the other day (we are both OLD) and was all depressed, I asked why he was all moping around and he said that he and his wife had just got back from the doctor's and she had (now get this!) either Alzheimer's or aids but now HE couldn't remember (Holy $#!T)

    So I told him to send her to the store. He asked "Why?" and I told him, "If she comes back, don't screw her!"

    No great loss either way, she doesn't wakeboard.
    Sent by the random thoughts from the voices in my head...

    Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night

    Do not go gentle into that good night,
    Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
    Because their words had forked no lightning they
    Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
    Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
    And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
    Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
    Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    And you, my father, there on that sad height,
    Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

    Dylan Thomas

    Always loved this one but now it's starting to be about me. Also, I (hang on as sec-- have to pee). (Back now) Uh, can't remember what else. Where's my shoes? Ma? Ma?

    I have a 07 and a 08 Outback I bought new. We use them for barefoot skiing and show ski team. Was planning on replacing the 07 for a new Outback. I guess I have to go back to Malibu or MC. We really liked the Outbacks since the Malibu's and MC were $20,000 + more. Hard to use a V drive for barefooting and pulling pyrimads. Just wanted to say I really enjoyed the DD Outbacks. I even got 2 friends to buy new Outbacks.
    Thanks for making the DD affordable.
