The 205v (and original X-star, X-2, X-1) derivatives THREAD

[Rossterman]

here's our 2001 205V. We are the 2nd owners and bought last spring with 305hrs. So far installed stargazer, new polk cabin speakers, kicker HDLC's, dedicated sub amp, and new subwoofer. Planning automated ballast project this spring. Couldn't be happier with how it all has worked out as we have really had a blast! Previous owner took excellent care of it- now it's my turn to pamper her (i've got a major case of MC ocd!)

I spy RED GATORADE!!!! Anything with coloring is strictly forbidden on my boat

I bought my '02 x-star from the original owner just last season as well, it had 96 hours on the meter..... now we are at 125.

Your '01 looks great! What lake is that?

Yeah- had those and fresh strawberries on that trip so sweated someone staining the seats. Luckily all was OK and put everyone on notice that items like these are banned and will stay in the truck next time!

Lake is berryessa. We ran there exclusively last year. Can get pretty busy on saturdays in the middle of summer but we did a bunch of fridays and sundays which were good.

Your 2002 sounds like brand new! Post up some pics!

Add - Bran-new RED Swimsuits to the BANNED FROM THE BOAT list. I tried everything to removed the stains - Finally - Barkeepers friend worked.

The black and red looks killer-

Did you add the retractable transom tie-downs? Can you sneak the tie down hook through the swim platform to the transom hook OK?-mine is a little tight.
