For starters we love the look of the exterior that includes integrated lights into the bow as well as fresh air intakes for the engine. Inside the boat you’ll find plenty of comfortable seats, including dual helm chairs, two chaise lounges in the bow, and two more in the stern. In each of the four sections there are USB ports and angled Polk Audio speakers, plus we counted over 30 cupholders throughout the boat that double as storage options for your passengers. Speaking of Polk Audio, the upgraded sound system is truly impressive, and includes six speakers and two subwoofers, four tower speakers, as well as two more speakers on the transom. The main stereo controls are at the helm, but there is also a transom remote in the stern.
At the helm the 12-inch touchscreen is offset to the right of the console with all your gauges and key information at your fingertips. Plus, there are two cameras on board so you can monitor from this screen to keep an eye on your surfers or check for swimmers before starting your engine. There is a second touchscreen below for your digital switches for your lights and other accessories. One quick note on the lights: we love the power off courtesy light switch near the side gate that automatically turns off after 2 minutes, even with your battery switch off.
The Surf Boss sits tall in the water, which provides you an elevated view, as well as allows the space for an in-floor compartment, which is more like a basement after you go down the two steps. Inside the compartment there is plenty of storage space for gear. This also houses the batteries and other electronic controls. The deep engine hatch in the back is easily accessible with a push of a button that lifts up half of the boat. Inside is not only the PCM ZZ6 engine, but also the two 2,100 pound ballast bags that fill up in about 7 minutes.
A designated trash receptacle, RGB lighting inside and out, wakeboard racks, swim deck, and electronic shift and throttle controls help round out just some of the many highlights.
