    Stereo Kicker KM613 Speakers (x3) -- Ontario Canada

    I have a set of three Kicker KM613 speakers that came out of my 2008 212X. I have the fourth grille (which includes the tweeter). The driver failed on one of my speakers, and ended up replacing all 4. Boat was always stored out of the water, inside in the winter and covered when not in use in...

    Joined The Club This Weekend.... (Sucked up ski rope) How to know all is good?

    After 8 years of owning this boat, I too joined the club recently. . Sucked in a fat tube rope. I got complacent, and didn't realize that my daughter had pulled herself closer to the boat on the tube and rather than pulling the rope in, she let it hang on the water. I went to start the...

    ANYONE NEED UPHOLSTERY DONE?

    Wow, looks great! Do you have templates for the different boats, or how does it work? My 2008 212X is in good shape still, but may need a solution at some point.

    Stereo Kicker Stereo Gear

    Realize I'm late to the party. One of my OEM Kicker KM613 died on me. Any chance you still have the 6.5" speakers for sale?

    Deck that remembers input

    Realize that this is an old thread, but I'm facing the same issue with a Sony DMX-M55BT unit that I bought recently as per the thread here: https://jetboaters.net/threads/radio-memory.35772/#post-575871 Which model Kenwood were you using? I came across model KMR-M328BT and Kenwood suggests...

    Radio Memory

    Unfortuantely I didn't take any and the boat is in winter storage. The original HU was the Sony and I've been a Sony fan overall for sound/value. I was a bit put off because I thought it would be an easy in/out swap, but Sony changed their wiring harness connector, so I had to redo that, as...

    Radio Memory

    As a followup.....I contacted Kenwood, as they have a unit that competes with the DSX-M55BT. It is their KMR-M328B. I asked: "Does the KMR-M328BT require constant power to save settings, presets and BT pairing information?" They replied: "Radio will keep the important info . Stations and...

    Radio Memory

    Sony DSX-M55BT From what I can tell, this is an issue with most of the radios. I think their "top end" DSX-M80 features "backup memory", but I'm not about to spend $200 for that feature considering I don't need the other stuff (I have an amp on board, so don't need the head unit to drive...

    Radio Memory

    Hmm. at 500mAh for a typical alkaline 9V battery, and an approximate draw of 5mA (I'd have to confirm this), the 9V battery would last about 100h, which is less than a week. Good for short periods if working on a car, but my boat stays off for longer periods. Given this, I think I may go the...

    Radio Memory

    Crutchfield support (at least the guy I talked to) didn't know of a product like this, but I'd be shocked if one didn't exist. I'll have to take a closer look. If you happen to find a link, I'd love to check it out! Had I known that this would be an issue, I would certainly have looked at...

    Radio Memory

    The stock headunit on my 2008 212X finally gave up the ghost, and I was excited to replace it with a new Sony unit that has bluetooth built-in. To my dismay, the "Marine" unit does not retain any settings (including BT pairing!) after the battery has been disconnected. I have a dual battery...

    Fulton F2 winch FAIL

    Not impressed with Fulton (or their parent company Horizon products). I waited on hold for > 1hour and can't get through to anyone. Looks like I"m not the only one with this issue: https://jetboaters.net/threads/fulton-f2-3200-winch-handle-snapped.14693/ Would 1000% NOT recommend this...

    Help Need! New 25' Trailer Cable Snapped

    My hitch is a little different, but the tab is made to be naturally in the down position, and should be able to move freely up and down. This is to test that the emergency brake mechanism hasn't been engaged. If it is made by UFP, here is a link to the manual that shows you how the mechanism...

    Fulton F2 winch FAIL

    Just finished a week of boating in lovely Muskoka, Ontario cottage country. Pulled out the boat, everything went just fine. Arrive back at the cottage to finish packing and do my double checks, which includes tightening the winch strap. I turn the handle and it just spins without winching...

    Choosing between Yamaha 210 vs Scarab 215.. help

    My perspective may be irrelevant, as my opinion is a few years old, but when I was shopping a number of years ago, I was comparing the SeaDoo (Rotax engines) and Yamaha boats. Perhaps times have changed (both ways), but the Yamaha engines were way more reliable than the Rotax. I wouldn't touch...

    One more Cobra Jet Steering review

    Hi @Cobra Jet Steering LLC . I believe that I have the original CJS fins (see photo) on my '08 212X. What would be the advantage to upgrading to the Cobra Super Ultimate Steering kit?
