Re: 2018 R7 Surf shifting issue
I'm currently struggling with a similar issue with my R7 (non-Surf). My shifter issue manifests itself in a few different ways:
1) Turn the key on and the EVC and "Glass" doesn't light up. Tapping the shifter usually makes everything wake up normally
2) Sometimes glass comes up but will not crank ...

The stick would move but nothing would happen. A warning light would flash by the gear indicator on the shifter housing, a ...

Re: Towing with Mooring Cover
I tow all the time with the same mooring cover you're talking about without any issues. As long as the ratchet straps are nice and tight it won't move. I did read somewhere that they don't recommend going faster than 75 on the highway.

Re: Towing with Mooring Cover
The factory cover can be used when towing. Tighten it down and go.
Of course you may see a minor rub mark in the gelcoat over time, so if that bothers you be prepared. I will deal with a minor rub mark to buff out occasionally over tearing up the interior or losing carpets on the highway ...

Towing with Mooring Cover
I have a 2018 R7 Surf and tow 2 or 3 times a year to Powell which is 500 miles one way for me. I did not get the cockpit and bow covers that snap on because I just didn't want all those snaps on the boat. Petty, I know. Anyway, my brother tows his Moomba with his mooring cover on all the time. What ...
