Does the joystick operate the thruster or did you go with Axius where it is all driven by the engines?

Nascat ever thought about another cupholder and speaker on each side in the front seating area?

Wow that could have been ugly!

I have not to be honest but I see where there's certainly room for more. The intention for that area is to be a step. I don't normally have all that many people on my boat at the same time to have any real concern over not having enough

Stereo setup mimics the last 340 and it's pretty stout. I'm not saying a few more speakers in the bench area wouldnt sound better but I just don't think it's necessary or at least not for me. Stereo performs rather well as is.

Just the Thruster. I was told that you can't buy a CC from Nort-Tech w/ joystick O/B' s bc Nor-Tech doesn't believe that system belongs on a boat that can run as fast as they do. (60mph +)

I agree with them. With Axius you can't have a tie bar on the engines. I had Axius on my last boat. Thruster works better than Axius too.

You should take in the SBI Nationals in Clearwater while you are there. Maybe you can learn something about racing. LMAO

Congrats on the new boat pictures look great. As for the stereo upgrade with Nor-Tech they were still missing some in my opinion. I added two in the gunwale on each side between the rear bench and cooler seat with two pointing out the back along with another amp. It woke up the system quite nicely.
