    14/15 230 air dam?

    Does anyone have an air dam for the new 230s? If so do you like it as far as quality goes? Maybe a pic? I'm looking for any possible way to extend my summer!!😄

    Works well. It is just a big piece of plastic that slides into the opening. Only complaint is that it tends to squeak while your driving. The rest of the boat is so quiet this just stands out and drives me nuts. With the window closed this in place and the heater on it really keeps the cabin warm.

      I agree with seveet. It can make a little noise. On my previous 210 I had the snap in type made by the local canvas shop. Only took a few minutes to snap in place and was about 30 bucks.

              Neverenough, I think you will have a problem with the slide in. I wanted to do it on my G but could not do it because my walkway padding goes to the edge, which leave no room to install the channels. If I wanted to install the slide in, I would have to retro fit the padding.

              I'm making a cardboard pattern and taking it to the canvas shop.

              deelan, my wife is the same...let me know when you want to go out. I'm always looking for experienced drivers and riders. This is the best time of year to go.

                  Ok so here's the deal... Like swank said you have to have the side panels redone to do the deal and its 400 bucks! So I'm out on that one.

                  My wife is the same way!! However is is asking about wet suits????

                  Actually said today " I wish we had friends that their wives liked to surf also" any local folks have wives that want to surf instead of just ride?

                        my wife surfs....just not when its cold :-)

                        maybe we should start a new thread about local riding and not so warm weather..

                          This is what I built to store mine.... simply cut half of a battery tie-down and screwed it to the floor. Keeps it safe and out of site while not in use....

                            Did I read "dreaded cold" and "82" in the same post? The water was 63 here today and we are still surfing in board shorts. Stay strong you southerners!

                              My wife will be in the water before and after me every year. She has a full wetsuit as well so we ride for a while. We will be on Lewisville this weekend and out at Cedar Creek the next.
