    Oh heck yes that is SHARP! Can I just say WOW bimini! Looks totally top notch who did you get that from? Love what they did with the support poles and where it attaches to the tower.

    Any ballast yet? Also interesting that the spotters seat is shaped different than mine.

    Thanks for all the great comments. She looks good for the pictures but being 20 years old she does have a couple issues that hopefully you guys may be able to help me with. I'll post them up in the service and maint. fourm.

    Mikey, I had my Bimini custom made here in San Jose at a company called Stribling's Custom Canvas. I just had them copy the one that 13th Floor (my tower manufacturer) sells.

    For now I just have a 400lb sac in my ski locker. I'm considering trying to raise my rear seat a bit and adding this 580lb under it. http://www.wakemakers.com/fly-high-rear-seat-sac.html

    Which sac do you guys run in your bow? I'm looking to hide one under the playpin.

    Some people run the 1k lbs fly high open bow sac, but it is a TON of weight, too much imo. I personally used 2x 400lb fly high surf sacs in the bow. There is some hidden storage space next to the cooler that will hide almost the whole sac leaving the open bow open for storage. The sac on the drivers side goes under the steering helm and back about to where your toes can touch it (mine is behind the 12" sub box which is also under drivers helm. Plenty of room!!!

    Plus, with two sacs, you can fill both for wakeboarding, and then empty one for surfing!

    Mikey, Thanks for the tip. Do I have to cut any of the fiberglass? Last time I looked it seemed solid back there.

    Well not all models are the same, so no gaurantees hehe! But on mine there was a small board screwed across the bottom of the hole so stuff wouldn't slide back there and get lost. I have a pic, but it's not the greatest.
