Finally rebuilt my mount for my GPS with 1/2 inch black Starboard and added the section for my new phone ram mount. I like to keep the clutter off the dash

Installed the optional seadeck pads from @JetBoatPilot

The engine pass-through, the middle seat and the two small winglets on the stern. Hopefully no more falling and twisting my foot for me!

Installed XM the other day, easy plug and play installation. I don't quite love the exposed antenna look, but I tried installing under the glass and reception was terrible (even though fiberglass should be agnostic to it). Works great, sounds great.

@seanmclean Funny... Chilling on this Sunday eve reading JB.net having a beer and listening to Pandora and as I litterally see your post:

Ps. You don't have XM antenna built in on the Connext?

Ha, nice!

On my boat, it was XM-ready, just needed to add the antenna kit.
Good to know, I thought the "xm ready" meant receiver ready and no extra antenna needed!

Looks like I'll be sticking with Pandora and controlling it with my gear watch connected to the boat.

tried to find them on line and could not find them! Do u have a link?
They are no longer available. I ordered them a few weeks ago when they had all wheels and tires on clearance. Quite a selection, but now all gone. Looks like they are getting out of carrying tires. Sorry.

I reset the clock for daylight savings time. I consider it a personal victory. I can never remember how and always need to experiment to figure out how again.

Sorry, no pics.

Not mine, but helped a brother on Lake Powell in Wahweap this morning. Red AR230. He was trying to ride in a friend's boat but did have the cleanout plugs locked all the way... We spotted him having issues after he launched and I boarded his boat to help - it felt kind of rewarding being able to help! Like giving it forward - all the things I've learned here from you guys!
WHat a beautiful place, too! The ramp was busy.

Not today, but this weekend. Have all the stuff out of the boat trying to get it good and dry before vacation. Had some random things bouncing around under the port side seat. Was some clips and such that had managed to get bounced back between the seat sides. Sent the 7yr old in after them.

From the port aft storage looking forward:

Inside the port forward storage:

Also managed to get caps on the bottom of all the cupholder drains. Hoping this will keep some of the water OUT of the rear storage compartments. No pics of that though.

Needed to cap the holes in the cup holders as well and ran drain lines to the back ones. Cut some cool pads for bottom of the cup holders out of spare seadek with the cnc...gives me ideas to start making some custom seadek pieces

Could probably sell those pretty easily here, too. Nifty idea.
