    Speakers popping while trimming

    I've had this problem from the time I bought it(used). When I hit the trim switch my speakers will make a little "pop". It just does it the moment I hit the switch. This seems to bother the wife more than myself, but in any case I was going to see if I could eliminate it this weekend while...

    What tools do I need?

    I purchased a couple of 6 1/2" speakers for the bow. My 185 didn't come with any, so I'm going to have to cut the holes out. What should I use to make the cuts? Any imput/techniques/warnings? Thanks, Jake

    Sometimes less is more

    I decided to do a mild appearance mod to the 185. To me, the graphics were a bit cluttered or busy. I decided to remove some of the graphics and I'm very happy with the end result. Please disregard the dark pictures, but they were taken while the boat was inside of the garag

    Ski locker hinge seperating

    Just as the title reads; My ski locker piano hinge is seperating from the door. No big deal right, just screw it back... wrong. The hinge is somehow attached to the lid by some sort of glue(?). I tried to reinforce it with some 3M, but as soon as I re-attach little shock a couple of days...

    Amp question

    I have an odd issue that hopefully some of the audiophiles on the board could help me with. I have 2 factory speakers inside the boat running off of the factory Clarion head unit. I also have 4, 6 1/2" Polks on my tower being powered by a 1,000w amp. Here is my issue: the 2 factory speakers...

    Will this bimini fit?

    I found a good deal on a bimini top, but it is for a 195 and I have a 185. Plus, I have the factory tower and the 195 bimini is from a boat without the tower. I looked up the specs and the 195 is 3" wider than the 185, which translates to 1.5" inches difference on each side. So, is the size...

    185 Wakeboard Tower parts

    I have the factory wakeboard tower on my '07 185. Apparently the original owner left the boat or at least the tower exposed to the elements. As a result the plastic knobs on the tower bolts pretty much fell apart. I am currently using stainless allen bolts, but would like a quicker means of...

    Lake Houston

    I have been to Clear Lake as well as the San Jacinoto River, but I have yet to launch into Lake houston. I was wondering if there are any recomended spots to go, places to avoid, general lake conditions, etc. I am also very currious if there are any places to beach and let the kiddos play...

    2007 4.3 issue with idle

    I have a 2007 185 with the 4.3 that I recently purchased (first boat). The boat runs great, but sputters and will die in the idle position. I've also noticed that there is a bit of play when moving the throttle lever before I finally feel some tension. Could the cable be causing the idle...

    Seized bolt in W/B tower

    Hello, I just recently purchased a used 2007 185 sport with the wakeboard package. While preparing to store the boat in my garage I went to lower the tower. Apparently, this was the first time since it was installed that anyone has attempted it. I broke off 3 of the plastic knobs attached to...

    Newbie from Houston area

    I just wanted to say 'hi' to all. We just recently purchased our first boat: 2007 185 Sport with the wakeboard package. :grin: The boat is beautiful and we can't wait to get it out on the water. We have spend the last few weekends getting it up to snuff... well, our "snuff" anyway. It was...
