What are your mod plans for this off season?

Im thinking amp and sub woofer first.

I hate drilling holes in my tower but would like tower speakers.
 
SEADEK !!!!!! then I'll have to shiny up the stainless scupper I bought 2 years ago and get that in....toss in a 2nd bilge while I'm in it..>BOOM it'll be spring again !!
 
SeaDek, Perfect Pass(can't decide if I am going to install myself yet, VERY tight to get in behind drivers console), WakeWedge(once they have one for 2014 212x), Stereo system(add 2 speakers mid cabin, add 2 amps, Tower Speakers, Dual Battery and maybe a Sub) Think that's about all the bank account can handle lol
 
Everything....! JL interior and tower speakers, tint, remove all decals, black out trailer, add liner to cover, high altitude impellers, riva throttle body spacers.

Nice....yea I am thinking perfect pass.

Where you thinking adding the mid cabin speakers....the walk thru area next to helm?
 
thinking one by the drivers seat, and one some where else lol... honestly haven't looked too hard at it as I will be getting it done professionally so they can figure out the details lol
 
SeaDek, all new vinyl, second bilge pump. Maybe some gelcoat repair.
 
SeaDek, and sound deadening :-).
 
SeaDek, and sound deadening :).
I found the best sound deadening.......duct tape....but my wife refuses to put it over her mouth.....ouch! she just slapped the crap out of me!! LOL

ROFL. I'm going to use that sometime! ... not the duct tape, but that statement. I'm sure I'll get the signature left backhand smack to the chest that my wife does.
 
I am going to get the audio install completed! I built the enclosure and now have to get the speakers installed, sub installed, both amps installed, and the second battery moved to better spread the load out.
 
Oh Forgot, I want to add some ballast bags, and pump. Still unsure how I want to do it, but know I want a little more weight.
I seen where some put them under our front seats and in the ski locker, our locker is HUGE on the 212X. Maybe could just buy same pump and plumb up next to the ski locker drain etc.
 
Yeah plan on getting a bag for the ski locker(yes I know kind of redundent) and then a smaller bag to either put on the back seat or swim deck if I don't have people on the boat. From what I can tell if you put too much forward you extend the pocket but not really build up the wake. So ski locker is about as far forward as I am willing to go. Thinking a 800lbs bag in there, and a 350 to move where I want it, Plus stock ballast of 750. Hopefully that should do the trick!

You might want to try the Gorilla tape. It's a little more money but holds much better especially in wet locations.
 
It is time........

Quite funny!
 
Installing the amp for the bathtub speakers (that I recently upgraded from Seaworthy OEMs to Polk db651). Likely to install swimdeck speakers and amp to drive them (likely will go JL for both those speakers and amp).

Trying to figure out how to justify spending for a 2 zone XKGlow R-G-B, smartphone controlled LED system. May depend on bonus attainment.
