2006 Utopia 205 questions

[Sako7STW]

Hello all! First post here at the forum. I am a 35 yr old male from good ol Wyoming! My family and I are proud new owners of a 2006 Utopia 205. Amazing deal we got on it I must say!! I really like the boat so far as it sits in the driveway. Waiting for it to quit snowing to take her out! Well while I am waiting, I am doing some upgrades to her.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to get the port (passenger) side black dash off? I am going to use this area as a subwoofer enclosure. I took out the stock deck and there is some way it is still attached in the back. I don't know if it is a typical pop-pin type fastener you find in cars alot or something else. I don't want to pry on it without knowing for sure in fear of breaking it. Anyone have any idea or a parts diagram breakdown of that area so I can see what I cant see right now??

I was also wondering if anyone knows what the alternator ratings are for this boat? I seen on the Seadoo site it lists 30 Amps. Is that total? or is that 30 Amp per motor? I sure hope that it is per motor. If it isn't, how can I get that to 70-100 amps?

I already have a second battery I am going to install in the boat with a battery isolator I already have, but I will need some juice to drive the system I want to drive.

Looking forward to getting to know you all! Thanks :cheers:

Pop the seat cover on the other side in the bow area. Lift up on it. There is an access area that allows you to unbolt it from inside. Hope that helps..

I seen the access opening through the stereo hole but didnt dare get gorilla with the front seats. So you simply lift up on the seat backs and they pop off? Man I hope so hat would make this whole ordeal ALOT easier. This sub installation is going to be very involved. It will be cool in the end though. I promise to take pictures and end results when I am done!

I had someone install a satellite radio module to the deck. Satellite radio ready my rear! I watch him disassemble it. Basically, he did the cover and then went to the bow area. He push it in?...and then pushed up. There is an approximately a foot diameter opening from the bow side. Then you unbolt it from there and the whole thing/glove box can be removed. I have a 2007 but it should be the same. Yes, post pics!!
