If this is already covered in another thread please redirect me but I don’t recall seeing one yet this year.
Every once In a while someone seems to come up with something new or different and I’m wondering if that is the case this year.

My boat related gift is a brother p touch label maker which will come in handy when I install a new stereo system with 4 amps and 11 speakers in the boat. Actually, it will get use today when I put away all the house Christmas lights.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some of you got boats, lifts, etc.

So who is going to help me live vicariously or is just proud and/or wants to show their new toys off?
 
We got a "new to us '18 SX195" which I de-decaled and then.... a stoltz roller, CE Smith guide posts with light and covers, Garmin ECHOMAP 64cv, Yamaha premium boat cover, Gator bow shield, ultra-tow 2K pound trailer jack, domed registration lettering, and a partridge in a pear tree... :p

I got 4 Taco stainless fender hangers, a JB.net spare tire cover, a JB.net drink tumbler from IslandJay, and I bought myself the rod holder mount for our Magma grill (which I will use in the table leg).
 
Got a 4-pack of these Towels. Can't wait to try them out. We've been sick and tired of managing towels on the boat. Hoping these really solve some of that issue for us.

 
"Moar weight" :D!..... although bought during Black Friday for big savings it was an early Christmas gift. Can't wait for spring!!

I’m guessing you will love those towels. We’ve had those the past couple summers and they have worked out great. Easy to hang and dry out!
 
I got this a little late, don’t know if i will ever need or use it but I will store it on the boat. I may even hard wire it in.

How does this boat need more weight? Are you struggling to surf? Surprised...

Most wake boats need some extra weight to get the very most out of the boat. MFG's can't or really I should say don't load them down if they don't want to eat into available persons or weight capacity. No replacement for displacement as they say.

You can’t make big waves like this stock. This is with the WM kit on a Max....

Can't wait for it to get warm so I can put them in.
 
I got a pair of Boss speakers for the tower:

Unfortunately, that same day I brought the boat home to put them on (not wired yet), I discovered that apparently I hit a stump on my last outing... Owch. So won't be listening to these for a little while.

What? Hit a stump? How bad is the damage?
 
I sold my last boat and got a new 210 FSH. Adios Tahoe 500TF.
 
Waters too cold! In definitely a fair weather fan.
