Overkill?

thoughts? My main one is why did he not at least use wetsounds or exile...

What a dumb ass....
Must be a glory hound ..

Maybe he did what I always think a local audio dealer did. Take all the old JL's on trade in from MC Installs and put it on his own boat.lol. Seriously though, a local audio guy put a bunch of Pro60's on his boat and I swear it was from everyone else upgrading to newer style (Enter Marine Audio Manuf) so he just took the old speakers and put them on his boat.

I agree though, Why not install some better speakers....just looks stupid!

cadunkle 08-31-2015 3:05 PM

No more room for ballast inside the boat?

Cabledog 08-31-2015 3:11 PM

did you see it in person? looks photo shopped (or incredibly stupid) with 3 rows on port and 2 on starboard down the sides of the tower.

think the tower shakes in the rough stuff....

xstarrider 08-31-2015 4:59 PM

Bet he has set of balls hanging on his trailer hitch

Same guy maybe?

dukeno1 08-31-2015 5:39 PM

Dear Lord I would hate to see the wiring in that boat!

dvsone79 08-31-2015 6:28 PM

He's just doing his part to keep the flying insect population in control. I bet he gets a million dead bugs on the front of those things every time he trailers the boat.

ralph 08-31-2015 6:38 PM

I think aesthetically it looks ugly but each to there own I guess

Gary 08-31-2015 6:51 PM

is there even a spot to hook up a rope.

bass10after 08-31-2015 7:46 PM

Definitely drives a lifted truck with nuts on the back and only plays buy me a boat on repeat with speakers like that.

kx250frider617 08-31-2015 8:00 PM

With pictures like these, they MUST include a video clip with music playing. I just want to hear what it sounds like.

I'm sure your laptop speakers would do it justice.....

racer808 09-01-2015 4:31 AM

Where's the "tuna trawler" logo?

09-01-2015 4:43 AM

I would agree placing that safety cone out behind the boat while parked is a little overkill......... Did I miss something else??

willyt 09-01-2015 6:25 AM

so little hope for humanity

DavidAnalog 09-01-2015 6:47 AM

The first picture shows more speakers added to the front arms of the tower which means that there is about a 4 to 5 foot span in front to rear speaker depth. So the phase shift is all over the place. Even using more of a sound quality speaker like the JL's, it has to sound absolutely awful. It looks totally stupid also.
How would someone properly power that? How much battery reserves would it take? One upgrade alternator wouldn't handle it? How would they get enough conductors through the tower without turning the tower into Swiss cheese?
If I was going to invest that type of money to make the ultimate statement then I would start with a custom tower that would better suit my sound goals. Larger, fewer speakers. A fanned array. A little phase coherency.

Was that in Dallas? I had a buddy send me a photo of that boat just yesterday. It was covered and sitting on a trailer during his UPS route.

Yep! I took that pic a while back and forgot about it... Post yours up! Apparently Brett has seen it to and got a pic. I wonder how many people have snapped pics of this and sent it out to fiends with a big LOL attached to it...

09-01-2015 7:30 AM

What do I keep missing?? I just see a safety cone that looks out of place??

simplej 09-01-2015 8:28 AM

Looks like the tower has a bunch of warts on it. Gross.


Cue wakezeach

North_LA_Hunter 09-01-2015 8:37 AM

Maybe he is just hard of hearing?? Haha!!

hatepain 09-01-2015 8:38 AM

38 tower speakers is not nearly enough.

I'm certain the iPhone mic would deliver a top notch sound clip

09-01-2015 9:54 AM

Oh I get/ see it now!
This is like building a $500,000 home in a trailer park. The speakers are worth more than the Supra.........

duderdude1 09-01-2015 11:43 AM

We saw this boat on Ray Hubbard. They where pulling a wakeboarder behind it and get this no sound from the speakers.

MuskokaCanada 09-01-2015 12:47 PM

I'm so glad that this thing isn't on my lake. You can't even hook the rope to the tower any more.

LOL LOL LOL

Hey Man don't lump all of us guys that Have bumper Nuts into one catagory ;) LOL

We need a Sticky Thread with all the "Boats Of Shame" But honestly this boat is only slightly more stupid then all the other UBER speaker clad boats that we have all seen from time to time here.

brett33 09-01-2015 3:30 PM

Yep, buddy of mine on Hubbard sent it to me.. Hilarious.

09-03-2015 11:54 AM

Hey I just noticed the light bar..... I have looked at this photo at least a hundred times and wouldn't you know it just may me throw up in my mouth..... just a little!!

Its was kind of like starring one of those crazy paintings (Bev something) that you are able to see another image of something.

sandm01 09-03-2015 1:14 PM

not for my taste but...

if I saw this at the ramp, I would walk up and look at it and once that happens, he has succeeded in what he set out to do, just like this thread and all the pics.

garner attention to his ride...

seth 09-03-2015 4:22 PM

I just hope he does not have to lower the tower to put her in the garage.

timmyb 09-04-2015 8:03 AM

That's one way to get more ballast...

09-04-2015 3:05 PM

So lets look at the psychological side of this install. Do you think the owner feels inferior in some specific area of his life?

Spotted again. Notice the 4 rev 10s in the trick bed. I believe this guy owns lewisville auto sound, which is the ****tiest audio place in NTX

09-08-2015 6:31 AM

Oh snap.... Not this photo again! I just threw up in mouth a little bit. Something about this photo really makes my vertigo kick in!!

skiboarder 09-08-2015 6:39 AM

Overkill, probably. But 100x less annoying than the fat guy plowing down the lake, at 10mph in his 24ft boat with 1100s on each side of the engine, death gripping the surf rope yelling at the driver that this wave just doesn't push. That is the worst kind of overkill. At least this guy gets somewhere, parks and drinks yeger all day. The fat guy who refuses to pump, ruins the day for everyone.

jonblarc7 09-08-2015 7:10 AM

Damn I bet he does have truck nut on that thing!!!!!

I surprised he doesn't have truck nuts on the trailer.

jonblarc7 09-08-2015 7:14 AM

LOOK CLOSER AT THE BACK OF THE BOAT BY THE GUIDE POLE AND THE TRANSOME[B

He cut holes in the gel and added vents for amps or batteries!!!!!

My 24V doesn't have those

theanimal 09-08-2015 11:56 AM

He lives in Garland Tx. I only know this because he is the guy I used to get my CDL. He runs a company called CDL test truck. Definitely a douche that told us stories the entire time about his days as a navy seal.... Does have a pretty hot wife though.

migs 09-09-2015 1:16 PM

wait, he's got Wetsounds on the truck & JL's on the boat?:banghead:
