No sh@! that has all the goodies....maybe a little too much for me but very cool nonetheless.

The tongue on the trailer is an awesome idea!!! I will certainly be looking into that. I do wonder if the trim tabs are really worth it on the Sea-doo boats?? They don't seem to have any problems and by the mph he posted, I don't see much gain at all?

Sweet boat! The tabs may help get on plane quicker and easier, and help in rough water but I would guess thats about it. They're not cheap either.

You got that right!!! $799, can anyone vouche if they are really worth this. I have looked into them but didn't want to spend that much money and not see some major results!

If I had of read a little more of what the owner wrote. He mentioned that it did not help at all in terms of top end speed or acceleration etc... It helps get to plane faster in rough waters but for that $$$$ not worth it in my opinion. Our boats are too small to really worry about planning out..... Has anyone really had any troubles with this?? Its not like we are driving 30footers with a 10ft bow.

With a tight, well sealed driveline, planing quickly should be no trouble. Personally, I can think of more important things to spend that money on, such as GAS!!!

LMAO..!!!! ain't that the truth!!! we are closing in on 80cents a litre here!! Its gonna be an expensive summer I think! Especially when you have to fill up the tow vehicle as well.

Will work for gas money! Would you like me to wash your boat sir?

Too funny!! I pay $1.62 a gallon here. Good thing I rarely tow more than 4 miles to the water! Good news is the "experts" say it shouldn't get much higher... pffftt...
(Jim Morrison said that too, didn't he?)

I thought about buying this boat. I talked to the owner but what scared me away were the following 2 things ... The Yellow is just pain, not gel-coat so if it sits at a dock all night how would it hold up bouncing off the bumpers.?. He did say it was painted with ppg paint though....But what I really didnt like was the foot throttle... Over all the boat is very cool!!

[Kevin Leclair]

Yeah I agree with you, no gelcote is no good!!!
