board racks worth a flip!!!

this!!!

Agree on the board racks!!!!! That's pretty much my main gripe with Nautique!

I would also add better integration between the LINC system and the Polk head unit. I have problems with that. White noise, and some crackling and popping from here to there. The JL audio was a major upgrade...however the head unit driving it all could use some major upgrading!

I thought I read in another thread that someone ran some additional grounding wires and solved this problem. I just deal with it by either having music playing or when it's paused, I turn the stereo off so their's no sound coming from the speakers.

I'll have to look for that thread! I was also told that there was an upgraded head unit to solve this, but my dealer told me I already had that! I honestly plan on taking my boat to Mike's Liquid Audio this winter to do some LED installs and while its there just have them professionally tune and clean up the stereo system.

That's funny Mark.....Saturday night when I lit it up for the fireworks....interior lights, tower lights, underwater lights....one of the girls in the boat asked why I didn't have a disco ball....LOL.

Pop up stripper po.... Err, tower stabilization bar...

I heard new towers were coming on the 2017's so hopefully they won't have the board rack issues. Would be nice if they fit in a 8' garage too. lol

Little off topic but heard big re design for 210 - 230 line...any info on that?

[jharris]

Staying off topic, any news if the 210 & 230 would at least get the link 3 system for 2017. Assume you can order a 2017 I would think more details would be out.

I'm hearing a new tower as well, 12 inch Linc screen, some sort of driver side phone placement area

Seems the swim platform could use some additional padding or protection so they don't get damaged by the surf & wake boards.

Wait . . . you buy a $130k boat and have to run additional grounding wires???!!!??? Do you see a problem here?

Just passing along what I read. I didn't do it to my boat.

The 2016 models have extended seadek that go closer to the back edge of the platform for just that reason....is that what you're talking about? Or do mean even more protection?!

here's my 2016...



And here's a 2015...

and yes...the stereo may need additional tuning....the equipment is top notch, but a professional stereo company Nautique is not. For that price, maybe they should have some professional stereo techs on hand...but they're more interested in just building wake performance boats, not floating entertainment centers. Doesn't cost too much to go to a professional shop and have them really tune in the existing system.

The 2016's are an improvement but I think there should be padding all the way down the back of the platform. In my opinion, you should be able to slide off of the platform without damaging the fiberglass. I'm not a big fan of how the Malibu swim platform looks but I think it's functionally better.
