well most of you have seen my Challenger so here is my other Doo; a 1996 GTX with the 787cc rotax; and everything works! even the gas ; I actually really wish my challenger had the cool multifunction guage that gave different readouts like water/air temp; max/average speed; compas; etc.



and my other family hauler; 21ft; 1998 American classic; all aluminum floor; 75 merc on the back

Take a look at Hydro-Turf, they also have seat covers. http://hydroturf.com...=SE...rs - PWC

Nice, you are set for any day on the water.

I was close to buying a ski this year, but I am a trailer boater, so the was no way I could get the Speedster and the new ski on the water at the same time!

thanks guys; family had the GTX before i bought my Challenger; I have not really taken the GTX out much since bought my challenger but i am actually thinking of taking it out tomorrow to lake lanier to scope it out before i bring my challenger there; lake lanier was 14ft below full pool in december and has now risen to 6ft below full pool

well pulled the GTX out of the garage today for a little bit of maintenance; I don't plan on winterizing it because i live in GA and it won't get below freezing in the garage so i pulled it out and pulled off the grey PTO cover and added some grease to the grease fitting for the shaft. then started it with the hose and it started right up ; I will be putting my challenger in the water this weekend and will probably add some grease to the shafts before i put it in; going to be a fun weekend

Very nice, let us know how this weekend turns out.

oh man Kevin I can't wait; have you seen the weather report for this weekend! do you run your boat year round?

[Kevin Leclair]

We sometimes put in during the off-season but it is kind of tough because typically the levels at Allatoona Lake are way down due to them letting a lot of water out of the dam. They mainly just keep it full during the peak season.
