well, we had to wait a good bit before the demo, and on the lake a wire was loose causing one of the check engine lights and alarms to sound, but for our trouble they gave us 3 neo life vests. Can't sleep anymore cause i can't wait to get out to the lake today!!!

I just posted a picture of my S200 w/bimini in the gallery. Chances are you've already seen yours!

We had a great day today out tubing and swimming at the lake. The S200 sure yankes the tube onto a plane in no-time! We could not be happier with ours.

oh my god, we are exhuasted how much fun was that. my wife wasn't sure before we went out on the maiden voyage, but now she is stoked about the boat.

we dont get the top for a week or so but i was wondering what it would look like, looked pretty good to me kinda of a low profile look. cant wait to get it, i think the sun drained us today.

We are very happy with the top. It is low profile enough to look good, but it is also high enough to allow us to jump out the back of the boat for swimming and skiing/tubing. It was nice to have the shade today as the temp hit 95+! It also holds up very well under high speed runs. I know how you feel, what a great boat!

well, just got my bimini top in last weekend, that thing makes all the difference when your fai skinned like me. still waiting on the boat coverto come in, but i guess its only been just over 2 weeks, and i should give them more time.

oh and on a different note: has any one played with the sea doo tube that is u shaped? it looks pretty good, and i found one for a total of100.00 with shipping. if thats reasonable i thing i will get it.

Two places with good tube prices I've found are;
Walmart
for the smaller tubes.

Larger tubes and free shipping.
Got Water Toys

ya i think walmart for the prices, but that sea doo tube in the u shape is pretty cool looking, i found some on ebay for around 100 with shipping. i was just wondering if anyone had any opions on it.

thanks for the help.

guys with the bimini tops - do they hold up ok at 35mph???? if im reading your posts correct - i guess you leave them up for skiing/tubing????

When I put my top up, I often go wide open. It does act like a sail and slows you down a bit. Doesn't hurt the top any though.

Yep, I leave mine up all the time. If you don't have it up the darn thing sits right on top of the ski pole and makes it tough to use the pole. I run WOT with the top up and it does fine (although it does cost me 2MPH).
