I purchased a Prostar 205 '98. It was owned by a 65 year old couple that traded it in for a pontoon. All the service was performed by Drydock Marine in Indiana. The boat was plain vanilla. No radio, just the basics. Sooo... here is the plan:

Tower - WakeAir
Perfect Pass
Stereo - HU, amp,and 6x9 speakers. The panels under the vinyl were
pre-punched for 6x9's. No need for tower speakers, lake is small.
Ballast plumbing - I am installing 2 Jabsco in the bildge, and one Simer for the bowsack.

Here are some pics

Nice, where are those two fittings located? Are you gonna use sacks to fill or fixed boxes? Can you get some not so close shots?

And if you have the time, can you layout how you are doing this? I have a supra with the exact same setup as you and would like to install onboard ballast. I am just not the best at plumbing anything, but my pops is.

haugy, those two fittings are in the back of the boat under the back seat. I will be getting a custom fat seat in the Fly High Pro X Series. I will be getting it made in two parts (or halves). There will also be a custom sack for under the front bow seating, since there is no ski locker. The fat seat sacks will fill and empty by the thru hull fitting. The bow sack will fill by the thru hull fitting, but empty by a side fitting

How do you like that kenwood deck? I had the same one. I found it very hard to read the display in the sunlight, but it is the cheapest deck I could find with 4v preouts.

Very Happy

I'm about in the same exact position as you. Cept mine is a 97 Sport Nautique. I have not started yet, but stay tuned for a full writeup. Just got the boat last week.
