NOTe:
the Boost Box is intended for use controlling the boat
stereo when pulling waterskiers, wakeboarders, or wakesurfers.
Because the Boost Box works by sensing the boat’s acceleration
and deceleration, it may turn down inadvertently if used during
aggressive deceleration when towing tube riders. this is normal
and is a limitation of the system.
If you are still having trouble with your Boost Box, please call
Watersport Innovations technical support at (808) 809-9909

Check to ensure Power Cable is firmly
plugged into Control Unit. Ensure power
cable is properly wired to battery’s 12-
volt DC power.
The Control Unit is not sensing the
boat’s acceleration. It is either mounted
improperly (see pages 2-3, Installation)
or needs to be re-calibrated. To re-
calibrate, wait until the boat is in
relatively flat water (no rolling waves)
and turn the unit off and back on.
Ensure Stereo Control Cable is installed
correctly. Check the connection to the
Control Unit, and ensure the male end of
the Control Cable is firmly plugged into
the stereo.
Unit may need to be re-calibrated. Turn
the unit off and back on.
This should be
necessary only if the unit was turned on in
rough water or if the boat’s load changes
significantly (loading fat-sacks, etc.).
