Heres a few things not to do. Test .

Behind the front passenger cushion in the bow section is a great place for an amp install. I have 2 x amps installed there and still have heaps of room in the glovebox

Yes then to get the dash out you need to take the bolts out around the silver trim

Oh no it's quite interesting as when your out using the bit the alternator charges the battery and you see the lights turn orange and then green the longer your out

Nothing too difficult about it. Find a 12v source behind your dash to power it. Run two lengths of twin core cable directly from your battery to the indicators on the guge and your set. Crimping lugs and running the cables are probably the most taxing of jobs for this one. Also I had to sand...

Also one year on its still going great. Went for a long run on the weekend at Mallacoota. Battery 1 jumped up to 14 volts which was nice. Small amount of surface rust on a small part of it.

Ah you found my post. Yes I can help you get a VDO guge if required. They are available on Ebay australia.

Confirming this mod is amazing. Changes the dynamic of the boat completely at low speed. Came into dock at Mallacoota yesterday and didn't get it quite right. Was able to reverse out with current and wind and try again. No side to side at slow speed. Held position a lot better.

Broke one of my Bimini mounts the other day. Upgraded to stainless and drilled out for bigger screws into the hull. Looks sweet.

Nice boat man. So much potential for DIY with this boat. Have fun with it.

Nice one, did you buy the red one that was for sale? Try keep the front bow cover on if your surrounded by bigger boats. It doesn't take much to get a wake over and into the boat

Nice one. Welcome to the forums. Where in oz are you?

Haha thanks, that's crown casino there on the south bank of the Yarra river in the 2nd pic, had the challenger parked out the front of there for NYE fireworks a few years ago.

Because I kept sending things to my family over there and they kept trying to find bigger boxes haha

haha try doing that job without pulling the pump out. It took me over an hour to line up the bolt again working between the nozzle and the ride plate. very frustrating haha

JPass is spot on. I often launch at the mouth of the Yarra river here in Melbourne and end up in the heart of the city which is all 5 knot zone. Hopefully this will help stop that side to side swaying you get at slow speeds and help with docking.

my year long wait for a package from NJ has finally arrived today. inside amongst other things was my thrust vector kit from Jet Boat Pilot. Lining up the bolts to refit was a bit of a pain but I got there in the end.

The extra modes might get unlocked after 10 hr break in period maybe

I've got low hours on my motor (sub 20) my mechanic who knows seadoos backwards has not said anything about a supercharger rebuild yet but I'm thinking that may come in the next 12 months.

Boat will come with one key as standard. I had a second one made up. I have seen the 2011 215 non SE model in the flesh and it has no depth finder. I believe the 215 SE model does have a depth finder. You will know if it's an SE as it will have clip ins for carpet, chrome cup holders and covers...
