2002 vlx wakesetter
Whats up all? So I pulled the trigger on 02 wakesetter vlx. Has everything except tower speakers & an amp for them, easy install, already have wetsound pro 80's on the way. Anything specific on this boat I should know? Any must do mods? I am looking at replacement ballast but that can wait. Can't wait, picking her up Friday morning. Feel like we are nesting with how we made room in the garage for her.

Congrats first of all!
Not a must but, reinforce the engine dividers depending on how much weight your're running might be a smart choice |
does that one have midship ballast built in?

There's a picture in this thread I don't have one of mine but pretty similar. Just a metal or aluminum piece and then you can keep factory dividers

I had an 02 VLX with a bunch of cool mods. One of my favorites was I added an IR repeater to the dash and mounted a wireless remote holder just in front of the throttle. Since the stereo is under the arm rest, it was a PITA to mute every time I picked up a rider, change tunes, etc. The repeater worked really well and allowed me to use the remote throughout the boat.
Definitely pull the rear tanks, add 750s and put some weight up front. |

Is this gonna be used primarily for wakeboarding or WakeSurfing?

I'm just guessing as i really can't see the license but did you buy this in AZ? Is the platform fiberglass or wood? I'm really curious cuz my sister and brother inlaw had a Bu that exact same color scheme they sold a few years ago

No bad news, if it was my sisters old Bu, it had a pair of white WetSounds on the tower, maybe there is some markings on the Tower? Also a manual wedge, 3 ballast tanks, a 340 monsoon, a wood platform... I think that's it. Am i close?
|
Don't see any markings I can think of on the tower, but yep on everything but I think the motor is the 325hp. I am putting some wetsound pro80's on soon.
|
325, you're right. I was thinking of my engine. the 325 is what they had. Was/is there any holes on the tower for speakers?(or where speakers previously were)

I wanna be sure this is the boat, so I'm not giving false information. if it is tho, all info will be very good. How many hours, what kinda platform, and name of place that you bought it from. No... I'm not trying to scam you or anything.

Speaking of tower speakers, I see no way to fish wires through the tower. How do people wire theirs? Are holes drilled & wires fished? |
I'm sorry... I called my sister and last time she heard about the Bu it was sold to a dealer and then sold and ship to new Zealand. So this isn't the Bu i thought i knew :(
|
But... I can definitely give you pointers advice mods etc. as i have the same hull model as you.
