The second system in a nearly identical boat to replace the dealer demonstrator sold too quickly. This boat has a few extras for the boat show.

 

   

A Sharpvision 20-inch LCD TV mounts to the port side wakeboard tower.

   

Quick-disconnect composite RCA and power molex.

   

The powdercoated aluminum bracket features four separate swivel points to adapt to any tower mount and to compensate for any compound angle.

   

Two star bolts remove the entire LCD and mount leaving only collars. No tools are needed to remove and reinstall.

   

We also powdercoated the factory cargo top collars to run consistent with our blacked-out collar scheme. This tends to streamline the tower.

   

Within the port side locker we installed a DVD player, 10-amp charger/power supply, CD changer and DC to AC inverter. The exposed rocker switch controls the concealed inverter, which supplies AC to the LCD TV. The charger allows continuous use without drain while in the boathouse slip.

   

An inverted AC receptacle in the rear port storage compartment allows for easy hook-up to a standard 15 amp extension cord and service.

Factory CD receiver in the glove compartment. A multi-changer adapter provides the extra inputs for CD changer and DVD player. The DVD player features a front panel game port for a Playstation or other electronic game.

   

Helm and transom digital display hardwired remote controls.

   

An infrared target in the top of the portside combing pocket repeats IR commands to the concealed DVD player.

   

DVD IR remote, RF lighting remote and LCD IR remote.

   

Dual Boston Acoustics four-channel amplifiers drive fourteen speakers and a 12-inch subwoofer. These fan-cooled one-ohm stable amplifiers are perfect for this application. A vinyl-clad shroud conceals all amplifier wiring. A carpet-covered birch amplifier rack houses and conceals multiple components and wiring. The rack is elevated off the sole of the boat with polymer pads and well secured at both ends.

   

Two circuit breakers for the helm buss and amplifiers. Two fuses for the halogen lamps and DC to AC inverter.

   

Dual batteries and a Perko battery switch.

   

Polk dB Series 12-inch subwoofer under the driver’s helm. An orange powdercoated aluminum grill follows the hull color and mimics the tribal flame scheme of the overhead tribal wing. The grill is accented with a black acrylic trim ring plus brushed and polished aluminum overlays.

   

Polk dB 6 ½ -inch box coaxils.

   

Speakers added to the helm console pass-through. Polk coaxils are recesses in birch bolsters covered in white vinyl and trimmed in black piping.

   

Each bolster features raised Supra ‘S’ logo.

   

Two pair cockpit coaxils in the combing pockets.

 

   

A six-pack tribal wing suspends three pair of Polk 6 ¾ -inch oversized coaxils. The pods are powdercoated in a gloss black. The wing is powdercoated in orange to accent the hull color, The wing is also clear-coated to deliver a more vibrant color and provides long-0term color stability. The wing contains an internal wiring raceway that virtually eliminates exposed wiring. The collars are powdercoated black.

 

   

This triple wing set-up features two additional wings staggered on the rear rail. These split wings support six black halogen lamps.

   

Under dash a heat formed ¼ -inch ABS bracket extends a three-position marine switch for control of the halogen lamps.

   

 

The factory courtesy light switch maintains control of multiple step and courtesy lights that we added or replaced.

   

We replaced three factory step lights with 5-light orange fixtures that are concealed in knurled aluminum cover bezels. The bezels are brushed and clearcoated.

   

The knurled bezels tie in with the factory trim around the dash instrumentation.

   

Black acrylic trim was added behind the factory Supra badges.

   

Clear acrylic oval diffuser rings disperse the amber/orange light from behind the badges. We also changed out the courtesy lights concealed in the top of the combing pockets with orange LEDs.

   

Additional forward aimed step lights in the bow.

   

10-inch acrylic diffuser ring with 72 LEDs illuminate the subwoofer and grill from within.

   

Bright LEDs turn the transom engine compartment vents into red taillights.

   

The six tower pods are fitted with frosted acrylic diffuser rings equipped with 33 diodes each.

   

The sub, six-pack wing, transom vents and Supra badges lighting are controlled via this radio frequency key fob.

   

Just for the boat show, a curved plexiglass mirror is suspended under the cargo top.

   

For a different approach, here is another orange and black Supra, in this case a 22 SSV. This system is about pure audio and brute force.

Six oversized Bullet pods house JL Audio XR integral component speakers. The XR650s are perfect for the tower because of the extra midbass cone surface area and metal dome tweeters. These speakers really project. /td>

 

   
In contrast we used six JL Audio VR600 coaxils down below in the boat due to their smooth response. It’s an ideal set up.

Two Boston Acoustics fan-cooled amplifiers (a four-channel GT-42 and two-channel GT-22) drive the single sub and twelve high-pass speakers. A Boston Acoustics G5 12-inch subwoofer hits with incredible authority.

Six black powdercoated collars wrap the rear tower rail. The six oversized Bullet pods are powdercoated orange and clearcoated for extra pop and long-term color stability.
