    Hey bud thanks for the heads up! Man that is just a great great deal! She looks awesome, I love the decals on the sides! Replace the rainbow with the red stripe and the font looks super neato, seen it on some later models too, what is up with that i wonder. Do you still use the ski pylon? I think the front is much roomier with it out. Love the tower speakerbox, nice work! Looks like a winner for sure and good luck with ballast, let me know what you decide!

    The GA registration numbers will stay the same. They belong to the boat. What part of GA are you in.

    Looking good. I like the looks of that Krypt tower. I'm either going Krypt or the Aerial Airborne.

    yea i built it myself could not see spending a butt load of money on tower speakers and since i do auto paint and body for a living i decided to make my own the speaker size are 6.5 i have thought about selling them but dunno how that would go over

    The only other reasonably prices tower speaker package imho is the Kicker KMT6 for $175 (refurb ebay) - $400 (new from mfg) depending on where you buy (I paid $240 new with store warranty froim ebay). They are easily audible while wakeboarding and quite loud surfing.

    Now if you have money to spend dont get me wrong wetsounds are the gold standard and I would kill for a pair of pro 80s is I just had an extra grand to blow... I did my entire stereo for under $500 and it rocks thank you very much! hehe

    I see fiberglass boxes like the one you made selling online for quite a bit more. Some people really really go for the polk momo 6.5"s, so there is definitly demand. Just chatting.

    I would like to get tower speakers, as I don't have any yet, but not a priority right now. I think I would rather have a drysuit for in my area. Do you typically have to amp these speakers as well, or does the deck usually have enough to push them?
