Looks fantastic. Nice garage. I tried that spot and shortly after put my wakeboard rack higher after setting it there so that it wouldn't collide with any tall dock posts or higher docks, as well as not be in my line of site when towing other sports or driving around. That spot didn't work out for me too well, especially when I put two boards in it with the lower board bindings pointing down.

Gotcha. I wondered about that. I kept looking at pics and couldn’t decide. I’ll probably go out there and move it today since I’ve got nothing but time since it definitely AIN’T boating weather around here.
This was one of the easiest modifications I've done...
New Boat Buckles for the transom and moved one of the factory straps to the front to hold the boat down. Used the factory bolt upfront that holds the bow stop. Also found out both bow stop bolts were on the loose side
Picked up a 19 AR240 a couple weeks ago. I've just been buying random stuff and waiting on warmer weather to take it out finally.
Spark plugs
Scupper valve
Spare tire cover
Trailer Guides
5/8 ball valves (to be able to tow)
4 person tube Airhead Great mable
Ropes
Recovery ropes
Trailer hub caps
Armaflex to seal up the engine hatch
Life jackets
Etc
CC: @WiskyDan That's another thing, if you decide to paint, pull the spare, paint it, and rotate your tires, using the spare for 1-by-1 painting to get all of it. Bring it over by me on the trailer, I've got an impact! 1-day project, make it a weekend with the Admiral, and you've got a launch right there too. Might not even need a jack, but we got that too!
Replaced the winch strap (broke pulling up boat last week, enjoy my knot to make it work lol) aerator pump and live well pump, as well as aerator cover.
I’ve done the hub cap thing before so suggest if you really like them you buy a spare set which will allow you to easily replace them when they get lost on the road (usually after hitting a large pothole or speed bump). One way to reduce the chances of loosing a hub cap/rim cover is to glue them on with silicone or rubber cement.
