Re: New R6...Registration letter font and anchor suggestions
The anchor is always a situation based thing. I use a box anchor, I usually anchor in 30-100ft of water with mud/rock on the bottom, on a lake with an inconsistent breeze. If you boat on a river you can use something much different/lighter. Due to the depth and number of other boats when I anchor th...

Re: Led drain plug
I installed one several years ago, there was a deutsch connector in the stern labeled LED or underwater lights or something, plugged it in there and the helm button worked.
Very easy install. It kind of flickers while idling but holds steady while underway.
I wouldn't worry about leaks.

Re: Bow Filler Cushion R5
The dealer installed the latches. I will try to remember to get a picture next time I am at the lake.

Re: Bow Filler Cushion R5
Yes, there are latches that are installed on the underside of seat that flips. Sorry I don't have any pictures of that.

Re: Thoughts on dark colors for bottom of boat

I had a sales person try to sell me on the ceramic coat but it was pretty expensive, ther...

Re: Thoughts on dark colors for bottom of boat
I have a red bottom boat and white sides. I think it works really well for minimum maintenance, I hot sauce after each weekend use. I feel like white bottom would be more likely to show the waterline if you are leaving it in the water that long, dark bottoms I feel like would hide the waterline bett...

Re: Rudder angle indicator
That makes no sense, but your right that it isn't even offered as an add on when building a boat. Seems like every year they are a little less desirable to me. Honestly I really like the RS9 Regal a lot better than the R8 cobalt. This is very similar to what is on my boat. https://www.amazon.com/VDO...

Re: No Longer Lurking
I have brand new carpet sitting in my closet, didn't even have it installed. First thing I did when I got the boat was put the Sea Dek in. Highly recommend over carpet.
