Ask for group 29 batteries instead of group 24. They will easily fit, and a single group 29 is equivalent to two group 24s.

The dealer said we set this one up as nice as any Axis he has sold. Any suggestions on anything that we might want to add or change once it arrives? This is new territory for me. I've always have had boats, just not wakeboard/comp boats. Thanks for any input.

Do not ever skip a day of using a good waterspot remover every time your boat touches water.

Thanks for the info! We went with the deckadence flooring. Have you seen it and thoughts? Also thoughts on sound pack 3? Thanks again.


I hate my carpet. Always is soaking wet after a good day of playing. Then I have to remove and let it dry. Next boat will have gatorstep along with many other options.

I had a local stereo genius do wonders with my system. Hated the 10" sub and the panel was crap with no enclosure. Added a WS420BT that is now basically my head unit. Also had him install a Kicker KXM amp for a Kicker 12" L7 Solo Baric sub in a completely composite ported enclosure. Then he custom made a cover plate that is killer for the helm. Tuned it and wired it all to an accessory switch so it doesn't ever shut off unless you want it to. I'm now that idiot that pisses off all the rich folks sitting on their docks sunbathing.

As far as sound pack 3...

In cabin speakers are loud, the towers are stupid loud and the sub can't really keep up. I'd say at very least a PAC LC-1 (https://www.amazon.com/PAC-LC-1-Remote- ... B0002J226O) is needed to balance the level of the towers vs. in cabins speakers. The REV 410s are painful loud cranked when you're sitting in the rear seat while pulling a rider. The WS420BTs are sweet though and even putting the stock sub in a closed or ported box will make a world of difference in the bass. The stock setup is a free air sub.

I would pick up a PAC LC-1 for your first outing and see what you want from there. Its a 2 minute install and $10.

Mine took around 20 days or so from the spray date.

The deckadence flooring rocks! I have it on my '16 A20 and love it. As for sound, my dealer generally orders SP1 just to get the base components in, but charges for SP2 and gets a local audio shop to install Wet Sounds speakers and JL Audio amps to bring the level to better than SP2. I don't know about SP3, but SP2 includes a "free air" sub, which is basically just a sub mounted to the plastic panel at the driver's feet. I got a sub in a ported box installed that hits much harder and sounds way better than what SP2 would be from the factory. I also got 2 Rev8 tower speakers as opposed to 4 Icon 8 speakers. I haven't heard the Icon 8 speakers but the Rev8's crank.

Sorry, I know this didn't really answer your SP3 question, but I just wanted to share with you one possibility. If there are marine audio stores in your area you might be better off ordering SP1 from the factory and then rounding out your sound after your boat arrives. If nothing else you're going to want to make sure you end up with a sub in a ported enclosure.

SP3 is very loud, however you will need to remove the sub from the plastic and build or buy a custom enclosure. The factory one is no where near air tight. Once I did mine it really woke the sub up.
