Entertainment is provided by JL Audio MM105 amplifier with six JL Audio speakers and a 10-inch subwoofer. A Power Pole Blade 8-foot shallow water anchor completes the equipment package.

The hull is finished in white powder coat with Seaspray sides and white bottom. A Road King tandem axle trailer is included with the boat.
