    Very cool. I'm not sure I have a good place to mount one on my 98 without some transom cutting unfortunately. I wonder how waterproof they are.

      Not very waterproof, I have had to unplug mine after it got foggy after getting dripped on. I was forewarned by perfect pass. I actually have not used lately, it was more of an issue with the single line display.

      Let's see some more costomized lists... Grant, will probably need two pages to do his...

          On my 07, I added a 10" 200 watt Bazooka tube underneath the front bow, custom graphics on the bow and windshield.

          On my 02 I completely redid the engine to match the boat including custom made graphics for the engine cover, and decals to replace the one ON the engine cover and exhaust manifold. Boy that was a job.

          I also redid the entire outside graphics. I won best of show at Sea World in Orlando some years back with the 02.

          The last pic is my 07.

              I always liked the theme song to the Masters Stars on the Water. I had drip molded stars made for the sides and had a decal shop custom make these decals. I also added stainless cup holders and my next project is adding a tower when I get the cash to do so.

                        So far I really like east_tx_skier's functional jump seat and Mikeski's rear PP controller. I wish all my buds with their new fancy boats had this, I have no clue how to use PP!

                        For our 1988 Ski Nautique.
                        I changed out the bent, round top pylon to the factory trick/air pylon. Sold the factory pylon - oops!
                        Judges seats alongside the motorbox with an open/pass through base to straddle skis/boom/skylon
                        6x9 speaker boxes gunnel to floor.

                        These are more modern day upgrades rather than what I'd call "custom".
                        Added a Tachyon boom mount for the Skylon so I don't have to move the trick release and boom clamp anymore, ever.
                        Wired stereo remote for driver
                        Acme 540 prop
                        Shower
                        Winshield mirror clamp

                        Coming Soon:
                        Heater
                        New speaker boxes that don't go all the way down to the floor with integrated courtesy LEDs
                        New (padded and vinyled!) judge seats that resemble the factory CC jump seat with "2001" stiching instead of the N.

                        After this is all done, the boat is exactly where I want it performance wise. Drivetrain rebuild/upradges will eventually be needed and if I can ever find new graphics I'll wetsand and buff it all out. The carpet is matted down to a tile floor practically, I may make an overlay/runner system but don't feel the need to tear it all out. This thing is a ski boat, not a show boat.

                          Thanks! Good thing that it was functional because it was fairly heavy compared to the CC jump seats. It lives in Canada along with my old boat these days.
