  1. It was wedged between the front side padding on the observers side, must of slid off the dash and down about 6"......had the seat back open and happened to just see the edge of the silver ring, thought it was a coin but then I got it out and remembered you had mis-placed one.
  2. Is this worth a few sets next time I am in Cali??
  3. Thanks again very helpful. @Chuck_Dickey the ZO touch screen does appear to be"the bomb" but I was sold on the Carbon Pro... perhaps they will offer an upgrade to touch screens down the road or even incorporate into a judges display? I got the impression that Mastercraft did a lot of the work R&D on the screen and they get it as an exclusive?
  4. OK thanks I will give it a try later today.
  5. Still getting used to ZO in the Carbon Pro but I'm liking the pull over-all, started at B1. A lot of us like to run some passes at 33mph before going to 34. Can anyone tell me how you do this? Looking at the manual (I know real men don't read instructions) it seems to say that you page from Tournament to Rec mode and change the speed there, then can you switch back for driving thru the course??
  6. It was too cold to ski in Michigan this weekend but had Skiing on the laptop and football on the TV, it was great viewing. Put the ladies and mens finals on the big screen, they all make it look so easy. Great Job, nice interview work Mr. Horton.
  7. @jimski I have the vinyl covered bunks and they are work fine. my first ShoreMaster had pressure treated 2x6 encased in vinyl but they got wet and heavy over time. The aluminum is the way to go.
  8. I don't know how I missed checking the option box when ordering for..... "__ 4 Awesome Eagle Babes included in Carbon Pro" Nice looking boat @‌waterskigirl
  9. Awesome looking boat, I ski behind a standard 93 and it's wake is nearly perfect!
  10. @kstateskier yep the BOS CP 1.0 will be protected by it's cover for half the year, sadly here in the "mitten" it will be tucked away in a heated garage for the other half. @matt Zito, I saw you out there on Saturday -- looked like some good skiing going on, Doug who you met is a barefoot 'animal' I had a golf outing to go to, my dock is directly south of the west end of the course, stop by sometime.
  11. @Matt Zito and @mcdrew, I'm on Big Lake just west of Clarkston off Andersonville Road. Still figuring out Z-Off! The course should be in for another month.... Message me. Let me know when you want to take a run.
  12. BOS Carbon Pro "1.0" has found it's new home, just in time for the cold front to hit! AGH
  13. That will be a perfect boat for what you described. $12K is a reasonable offer. I just took delivery of my 3rd Centurion thanks to @Horton‌ ! Good Luck
  14. @matt I ski just north of White Lake, West of Clarkston.
  15. I have been in a couple.....it's a good overall boat, great for family use and some course skiing, the hull is a stretched and widened version of the Eclipse which was a tournament caliber boat at that time......(kind of like how Malibu took the LX and made a 21' Lxi). Lots of storage and fairly solid overall, just didn't sell that well as V-Drives were starting to take over. Make sure there aren't any stress cracks or signs of abuse and you should be good, I have only seen the Merc Magnum MPI Skier engine in the this boat, a Scorpion would be a nice upgrade, can probably get it for a nice price.
  16. Meanwhile, BOS CP 1.0 is almost to MoTown! Should be skiing by Tuesday evening.
  17. I just got a large one based on BOS input. I'm 5'11" 190 and it fits nice...very snug, first few times out I have had to get help zipping it up. it is nice and warm took on very little water when I was in this morning.... but today my rear leg started taking on water on my starts.... anyone have this problem? do you put a 'cinch' strap on the rear leg perhaps??
  18. I think my first heater had an in-line fuse kind of like car stereos used to have, might check that too.
  19. Good luck, try and actually ski them before you buy and let the kids try too.....because a few MPH can make a big difference with all the boats.
  20. I put up my collection of 'woodies', used a 2x4 on end with slits at the desired angle for the fins. The other side has a small brass screw that blend in well with the wood finishes so they seem to be floating. I used a 2x4 on both sides but in hind site I could have gotten away with a 2x2 or even 1x2 on the tip-side. The mounting boards are screwed into wall studs at the top and bottom. (As you can see by the bottom ski, the 'wide ride' isn't a new idea! Pat Connelly's Wake Special looks great!)
  21. Dave the lake was glass last night but it was a bit chilly, hope you got out this morning. I will be back at it tomorrow.
  22. OB is right they measure differently that most other makers. I'm 195 on a 66". It's also a fraction wider than their 'pre nano one skis'. (I was on a 65" Nano one last year and it felt a little small for me me, this one feels great)
  23. If you really want to save some $$ you could look at the 'sleeper' Centurions from 2000 - 2007 the Eclipse step over OB or the T5 Walk-thru. Similar hulls that produced surprisingly small soft wakes for under $20K. But if you want newer the Nautique 200OB is hard to beat. Malibu Responses are darn nice too with a lot of room.
  24. Go easy at the gates, maybe even try to skip the gates start at one ball a few times t until you find your rhythm. Have fun
