a thread for everyone's boat

[johnathon_03]

I picked it up the middle of summer. I put the tower,tower speakers, wakeboard/sufboard rack on myself. I am in the middle of a floor repair right now. I ripped the back starboard side out. I am fixing it and putting new carpet in. I am also adding ballast this winter as well. I am hoping to get 600lbs in the front and 600-700lbs in the back 300lbs under the seat and 350lbs in the locker filled with 2 Simer pumps. I also have 2 550lb sacs for the floor. I should have a killer wake next summer!

Thanks everyone for your help and advise.

wake_newb it is a great looking boat and many of the features are before their time. You may get the bow wave when you stop but the trick there is to not cut the throttle completly, but decellerate more slowly. If there are rollers coming at your bow while you driving slowly or idling, it helps to slowly accellerate through the rollers.

Jon Sounds beastly cant wait to see those pics! Surf wave looks good, with some more weight you should have it to belly button!~

Wish my Conbrio looked that nice!!!! ( I'm gettín there) That tower is tall, I like that being 6'3" !!!! , It's gonna be fast , smooth and yes watch that bow, don't put more than one person up there and pay close attention to the turn around for the downed rider....Otherwise keep the pic's coming can always Conbrio reference material for my boat!!!!!!!
I like it best when I'm in it alone on glass and the speedo's read'in 50!!!!!! I know guys the rpm's are getting alittle upset I don't keep there for too long!!!!

hey man boat looks great. What tower is that? It looks awesome!!!

[wake_newbie]

It's got a sticker on the tower saying "F-54" if that means anything to someone. I googled it and could not come up with anything.

Don't worry mappleleaf. She is a bit untidy but will start work on her this weekend. Needs a full retrim and a good polish. The back locker cover is the worst. otherwise a good clean of the vynll. Replace the timber under the play pen but should still be usable.

Where do you store larger images so I can show the detail in her?

hey newbie, love to see other Conbrio's here, especially with an Aussie location! Love the fenderless trailer, mine was like that this past winter, had to replace'em. if you're towing any distance you'll wanna put some back on there...
Is that a sub in the walk through to the bow??? how's it sound being there? I've got a 10" in a box inside that storage and it's a bit muffled, may have to cut mine in like yours.......

I host my wake pics at wakeboarder.com, they give you big and medium versions of your pics. I have 350 pics and 130,000 views!!! http://photos.wakeboarder.com/showga.../35518/cat/500

View the pic there, right click, properties, copy location, paste into code like this but without the spaces

Maple, do you have your wakeplate all the way up as far as it can go?? That may help give you more bowrise. Missed the Wild vs Leafs game the other night but thought of ya right away lol!

[mapleleaf]

I'm sure you did Mikey...that 2nd period was horrible. Thanks for the thought though....
I was running my wake plate all the way up and all it did was porpoise all over the place, so in any kind of chop it ruined my handling. At idle is where I could use some bowrise, I think the answer is a '92 Sunsport GT40 like say uh IrishJack's!!!! N E way had to drop the plate back down to help boat's handling......
This winter has finish interior, tower, and maybe a paint job written all over it, hopefully that'll include some kinda integrated floor bag system.....
