    Fiberglass Damage

    I just noticed this dent in the bow, I have no idea how it got there, it's in a weird spot, in the bow under the starboard seat. Here is how I am thinking about handing it. 1. wait until the end of the summer so I don't lose any boating time 2. bring it to a fiberglass repair shop 3. either I...

    242xe subwoofer rattle

    So I found my rattle, it's this molding cushion the top red arrow points too. Now the question is how do I remove it? I felt one screw at the bottom (bottom red arrow pointing to it) but I think I would need to remove the cushion that I am pointing to with the black arrow to access that...

    242xe subwoofer rattle

    dumb question time, how do you guys know where the bolts are to access things like this? Do you have service manuals or are their diagrams available? I will dig into mine and check it out as well, it would be nice to open up the bass and not hear rattles.

    Aux Battery Low - 1 year old battery

    I just ordered a Duracell group 31 agm marine battery from Batteries Plus Bulbs for a little over $200 after the online discount and when I return my core. They ship to the stores for free, pretty good deal.... My OEM house batter also died...

    Coast guard kit, flares, throwable flotation, oar etc. docking lines Not sure if the bow roller on the '18 trailer sucks like it did on my '16, but I replaced it with a Stoltz bow roller cleaning kit, vinyl and glass cleaner. probably want to wash and wax the thing as well Boat pole, docking...

    242xe subwoofer rattle

    I have the same rattle, sounds like its the three cup holder area. If I push down on the left side (towards stern) the rattle stops. I would love to knock out the rattle as well, so any idea on how to accomplish that would be great. I am thinking it would involved taking apart that area and...

    Another grill question

    two more questions about grilling... 1. How long does one of these grills take to cool down? 2. If I added a new leg, attached it to the swim deck, can you operate the boat with the grill attached or definitely not?

    Connext screen too bright

    I had it on night mode and the lowest possible settings, 5% and it was still too bright. When I covered it I could see much better. Basically you lose a decent amount of vision especially on the starboard side. I'll probably just throw a hoodie bunched up on the screen next outing, I was...

    Connext screen too bright

    I went out the other night and I found the connext screen too bright, even on the lowest brightness setting (5%). Does anyone else feel this way? The brightness limited my visibility, especially my visibility towards the starboard side. I'm not sure there is really anything we can do, I...

    242X Factory Ballast

    I'm trying to follow this thread as once it warms up we are going to try our first year of wake surfing. I have been in the calibration screen before (last season) so maybe I should hold off on question until I get into the screen again. But is sound like 1. From an empty bag position, fill...

    Need help picking my boat

    I can tell you from experience you will want a larger boat with those number of people. In my mind my 192 sx was only good for about 4 adults, once I got past that it was very cumbersome and crowded. I had 6 adults on it once and it was not happy, getting on plane was a pain and very slow to...

    Service Issues

    I would disagree with some of the folks above blaming the owner and not the dealer, in my mind it is both of their faults. The dealer knows you are a novice as I am sure you made that clear, they should have told you to become familiar with various aspects of the boat (blower, drain plugs...

    242X Factory Ballast

    Just so I understand, on the 242x, you should calibrate to get most potential out of the bags? Anyone have a good writeup or screen shots of this? Is it pretty straight forward in the UI?

    Battery Diagram - 242 X

    I don't think I ever tested it last year, that's why I am not sure. I think I might have always had both battery switches on.

    Battery Diagram - 242 X

    So got a chance to check things out last night, here is what I found 1. both batteries tested 12.8 volts when using a multimeter, I assume this means both are good? 2. There isn't much to look at from a wiring perspective, the start switch has a positive cable to the start battery and the house...

    Battery Diagram - 242 X

    I think another good test, probably check tonight is turn off the house and parallel switches and see if I can start the motors just on the start battery. If that works, then I seriously think I just have a dead house battery. I also have a multi-meter with me, I am going to test the house...

    Question for the towable guys/gals

    Congrats on the boat, you're going to love it. I wet slip so my experience might be different. I have basically the same tube, I have the super Mable which I believe holds three or four, but whatever it's large. I would inflate it at the dock prior to takeoff and strap it to the swim platform...

    Battery Diagram - 242 X

    So looking at my wiring it looks correct to me, so now I am starting to wonder if my house battery is dead? That would explain why I need parallel and start on to run the stereo correct? I have a multimeter, I am going to test the battery when I can get out there, probably tomorrow. So my...
