You're fine....they are a great little boat for the wife and kids and I have had lots of fun myself.
It would be a good idea to have the leaking hull seal problem at the back checked out to avoid a watery grave one day...but other than normal maintenance and a good size credit card for the gas (normally WOT) ...ENJOY!

I just bought a 05' Sportster SCIC...Is there anybody out there with a GOOD experience...I am kinda freaking out!

Well hello there fellow bananna boaters..!

I have owned a 15' jet boat every year since it's launch and have had good luck..with every model up until later last summer my 2007 SCIC Sportster just about went to Davey Jone's locker.

We had a number of asshole 40+' boater come thru as a group and no one was really on plane...as a result many smaller boats were swamped and I was away that afternoon...only to come home and find my boat just about completely under water (engine)..only being held from the bottom by the ropes tied to my dock.

We could never really fingure out how and why and it took a couple of trips to the doctor to find the leak and fix the miss running motor..(still not the same)

Were you eventually compensated by BRP?

We figured the water coming in the back was so much...as soon as the bildge port was under water ... the rest was history.

I paid for a half assed repair job...that I believe works but would like to get my motor looked at by BRP...waddaya think.

Cheers and thanks for the info.
