    Makin a list, checkin it twice

    I recently got my 2003 sante and I have been researching as to what to do with the dang thing. I know there have been threads about what people have done to their boats but searched and couldnt find them (Jeff, add that to the list of site upgrades, a little more user friendly search option)

    So far I came up with moving the subwoofer to the driver side to free up some under seat room, fix the monor problems like ballast gauge sender and fuel filters, potentially work some ball valves into the engine drain plugs to make for easy draining as I ride really early and late in the season.

    I havent thought about upgrading ballast setup as of yet because I have yet to ride it as it is. I do have 2 older 680 old style fat sacs and 2 new v-drive cube sacs that I could use when the time comes.

    Other than the flow wrong valves needing replacement, What are some popular upgrades? I like to tinker almost more than I like to ride and it is gonna be a long winter. :shock:

    I forgot another thing. I plan on puting a shower on this boat like I did my old one. Is the wiring in place from the factory switch? If so, where is it located? I guess I will want to do this this winter as well.

      For the shower wiring, it may or may not be there. Sometime in 2003, Correct Craft discontinued the shower as an option.
      If the wiring exists, look for a loop of wire on the starboard side of the bilge, up against the side, somewhere near the motor mount on that side. You are looking for a plug, I think the wire colors are orange/black for the hot side of the shower, and black for the ground side.
