Re: Anyone move from a R3 to R4 or R5 to R6?

The wave on my R6 Surf I feel has more push and is taller than my friends Malibu. However he has much more control over the shaping of the wave. His wave is also longer than mine. I can get a longer wave by dialing the speed up to around 11.5.

Re: No Anti-Siphon Valve

Cobalt sent a letter to my house that required signature.I guess they view it as pretty serious.

Re: 2022 R8 Surf

I’m not experiencing the tower sway issue on my R6 Surf with the same tower. Does it shake and squeak only at high speeds?

Re: Saving Custom Surf profiles

I think this might be a feature only available on the 2023’s because I believe the zero off feature is now built in to the surf screens.

Re: Anyone move from a R3 to R4 or R5 to R6?

I went from a R5 to a R6 Surf. Might be an apples to oranges comparison. R5 VP350 vs R6 Surf VP380. The lines on the R5 are very classic. The new even series are more “sporty”. The thing I would change on the even series is the windshield setup. It has some very sharp edges. As far as the “head” on ...

Re: 2022 R8 Surf

I would start be doing some basic troubleshooting with the speaker zones. Turn the volume all the way down to zero. Any feedback? Then begin turning the volume up one zone at a time and see if there is any feedback. Might be isolated to one zone. If there is then I would suspect it is the amp poweri...

Kind of what I was thinking. Now just have to locate that fuse.

Re: Platinum sound issue

I have now determined that the left power distribution box is for the tower speakers and the passenger sub. I swapped the red positive cables coming in the each box and the tower speakers and passenger sub started working and the cabin speakers and drivers side sub didn’t work. This is good because ...

Re: Platinum sound issue

That will be my next step. I don’t know which amps are wired to which Roswell power distribution block. I’ll be bringing a volt meter back in the next couple of days.

Platinum sound issue

Yesterday our tower speakers and the sub under passengers seat quit working. We have a total of four Roswell amps. 2 - 9600.6 and 2 - 1000.1. In looking at the amps, the top amp on the right side and the bottom amp on the left side are the only ones working. I’ve done a visual inspection of the fuse...

Re: Ballast errors on R8 Surf

I will occasionally have the “check surf system” red button light up as well. Similar stats. About 1-20 times. I have to turn the boat off and restart. A couple of times the only remedy was turning the batteries off. I haven’t reported the problem yet to the dealer as I also suspect this will be ext...

Re: Name Plaque

I received them for my 2019 R5 and 2021 R6 Surf. I definitely think it’s a dealer thing.
