newty 05-05-2011 4:41 PM

Nice Ian! Great color combo! Nice work ACME.

spencerwm 05-05-2011 5:03 PM

I like it. What do you guys think of those Skylon in boat speakers? Last time I heard them they sounded pretty good but that was a couple years ago.

hatepain 05-05-2011 5:03 PM

Top shelf! Great combo, MB, OIB and Acme. How could you go wrong?

liljohn 05-05-2011 5:19 PM

Boat looks SICK! Curios why didnt you go with the hybrid on the tower? I have listned to both set ups (yours and the hybrid) the hybrid is way nicer and can still be herd by the rider Clear as day.

wakereviews 05-05-2011 5:25 PM

That is the hybrid set up. 2 x S7HD's and 4 x SMT65's from Samson

This year Ian wanted to go for a much different look than last year and keep it simple.

Ian sent us 6 Samson tower speakers and a Harpoon amp to install. We kept the rest of the stereo system as it would be off the showroom floor from MB.

A huge change of attitude for the exterior came from powder coating the tower and tint. We took the original silver tower off and had it powder coated black with blue accents to match the hull of the boat. The glass was removed from the frame and tinted 20%.

LED accent lighting was installed to all of the cup holders, interior speakers and tower speakers.

I want to thank Ian at OnlyInboards.com for giving us the opportunity to work on another one of his boats. Seeing our work from Sacramento make it way out to the Mid West is a great feeling. Hopefully Ian will get us some on the water pics!

Wow

mendo247 05-05-2011 6:27 PM

Nice work as always. The tower speakers look great lit up.

tyler97217 05-05-2011 7:51 PM

Wow. Atta boy fella

boardnxtx 05-05-2011 7:57 PM

Dang, that thing is awesome! Great color scheme! I loved the old MB, but this one takes the cake. Congrats on a great summer ahead!!

chexi 05-05-2011 8:46 PM

Looks great and I'm sure sounds great too... but those trailer tires look tiny with that boat. Must be a super deep V.

pdqwrx 05-05-2011 10:54 PM

Ben- Great job as always.....

illini88 05-06-2011 5:37 AM

Can't wait to see this thing on the water...although I think it's safe to say I'll hear it before I'll see it, given the tower setup!

wakecumberland 05-06-2011 6:48 AM

Is that blue flake? I may be interested when you are ready to sell.

wakereviews 05-06-2011 7:36 AM

unfortunately they sprayed the boat before I had a chance to switch it to the metallic, so it is not flake.

ian_ashton 05-06-2011 8:19 AM

That is a great looking boat, I love the accent color on the tower, sweet attention to detail!

wakeandsnow27 05-06-2011 9:07 AM

gorgeous....love the colors and the light tint almost appears grey and blends right in with the gel coat. Well done.

I find it interesting that MB went with the X theme. I associate X with Mastercraft. I know a couple others have models with an X (vlx, xlv), but it's still weird to me that a manufacturer would go this route. They pull off the looks with ease, it's just a weird association "problem" I have.

lifetimewarranty 05-06-2011 10:09 AM

Looks good Ian...real good.

brucemac 05-06-2011 2:05 PM

congrats! looks sharp and nice work.

pc_sledge 05-06-2011 2:37 PM

Money, got her all gussied up for Brostock, can't wait to see her in person. More water pics ASAP

pc_sledge 05-06-2011 2:44 PM

Love the pics of the interior, the lounge is huge!

gwperry2 05-07-2011 8:00 PM

thats a sweet color combo thing looks nasty.

ilikebeaverandboats 05-07-2011 8:13 PM

looks awesome man. Im really liking the blue, especially the blue LEDS and accents!

ajholt7 05-08-2011 4:12 PM

That thing looks very sweet.

jonblarc7 05-09-2011 7:41 AM

And I thought I was in love with your last MB. But man she is beautiful.

fman 05-09-2011 7:57 AM

Ben, great work.... looks fantastic. Not a surprise coming from your shop, you guys always do a great job!

Ian, boat looks great! I was looking at it when my VLX was down at his shop.... she's a beauty! have a great season....

pc_sledge 05-11-2011 3:56 PM

Some on the water pics are way over due, where u at Ian?

wakereviews 05-11-2011 4:19 PM

The boat just got here last night, haven't gotten it on the water yet. Promise I'll get them sent. Planning on hitting the water Saturday if interested.

supratweaked 05-11-2011 7:22 PM

Sweet Sweet setup! Get on those pics Ian.

chucktronics 05-11-2011 9:13 PM

Nice Work Ben !

Again ,props to those who also personalize the boat ,not just build systems.
That thing looks clean with black tower and blue accents.

slipknot 05-12-2011 8:26 AM

Great work on the system ACME and Ian! But the wake is better!

pc_sledge 05-13-2011 8:29 PM

illini88 05-17-2011 7:59 PM

That thing looks huge. Boat looks bad ass

tyler97217 05-17-2011 9:33 PM

Lookin good

05mobiuslsv 05-17-2011 9:49 PM

Looks awesome, could very well be my next boat. Look forward to see what they do with this model in the next year or two.

lionel 05-17-2011 10:29 PM

That thing looks really good on the water. Not saying it doesn't look good off of the water, just looks amazing on the water. You can thank me later for saving your speakers while it was in Portland :D

Sasha2 05-18-2011 7:39 AM

looks great on the water!

jrbishop4 05-23-2011 6:50 PM

Not only does Ian's boat look great on the water it puts out a great wake. I rode with Ian saturday and was very impressed with the wake. Props to MB for designing a great boat.

boardnxtx 05-27-2011 11:28 PM

Already up for sale???? Thought this boat was going to be a keeper...

wakereviews 05-28-2011 6:54 AM

I sell my boat at the end of every season.

boardnxtx 05-28-2011 10:48 AM

Gotcha. It's going to be hard to top this one, so can't wait to see what you come up with next season!
