UNDERWATER LIGHTS
Underwater lights provide boating enthusiasts with the latest enhance-
ment for their boat, ensuring a memorable experience and creating a
unique signature visible from shore or other boats. If your boat is equipped
with LED underwater lights, they are powered by a toggle switch at the
helm.
It is the boat owner’s responsibility to manage battery voltage while using
this feature, to ensure battery(s) are not drained to a point where engine
will not start.
Refer to owner’s packet for instructions and warranty information.
STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
The stereo in your boat is equipped with an AM/FM radio, CD player,
MP3 Jack, and premium water resistant speakers. The stereo also has
a digital clock and antenna lead. Our sound systems are Sirius Satellite
Ready and some models are equipped with satellite-ready antenna and
receiver. The stereo will turn off when motor is cranked. This is normal
operation. The stereo memory has power at all times.
Some models are equipped with stereo speaker upgrades with amps,
subwoofers, and/or tower speakers on select models.
Some models are equipped with a stereo remote located at the dash
for operator’s convenience. Some models are equipped with a stereo
remote located at the transom and available as optional equipment on
other models.
Note: It is the boat owner’s responsibility to manage battery voltage
while using this feature to ensure battery/batteries are not drained
to a point where engine will not start.
ARCH WITH SKI TOW
Arch with ski tow is provided on select models. If equipped, the arch with
ski tow provides a raised attach point (ski tow pylon) for the ski rope,
rated at a 1,000 lbs maximum. The high attach point enables the skier to
perform a wide variety of skills not capable with the lower transom attach
point.
Note: Anytime while towing someone behind your boat, they should
have their Personal Flotation Device (PFD) on and a third party on
the boat to supervise at all times.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE ARCH TOWER FOR PULLING
INFLATABLES. Use arch with ski tow for single skier/wake-
boarder only. Use ski tow or stern eyes on transom for all
other tow behind sports. Heavy loads could collapse tower
causing personal injury.

DOCKING LIGHTS
Docking lights are available on SSX models. Halogen docking lights are
used for safe night time docking, and are glare-free because they mount
below the deckline. If your boat is equipped with docking lights, they are
powered by a switch at the helm.
