    Default Bluetooth surf option

    I just sold my Malibu and now have a 2022 Supra SL450 and love it. My only complaint is my Malibu had surf band which would let ME control changing the wake from left to right. Supra says they don't have anything, but I've heard someone has come up with a way to tie into the bluetooth to make one.
    Any idea how?

    The 2022’s steering wheel controls operate on an RF frequency from what I understand, and not on BT. BT controls only the audio system, so I would bet the if the transfer switch freq was known, an easy RF transmitter hack could cause autowake switching.

    To hack this you would need to know the specific RF frequency and create a waterproof switch like a garage door opener.

    To be honest, I would not want my boat operator to not have control of the transfer switch because it could significantly alter the handling of the boat suddenly.

    I think good hand signals/comms between boat driver and surfer would be a better solution and produce less variability in boat control.
